Newcastle Jets FC Perth Glory FC


Central Coast Mariners FC Wellington Phoenix FC


Sydney FC Melbourne Victory FC


Adelaide United FC Queensland Roar FC



Queensland are the only away side of the top four, but are facing limp opposition. Sydney arguably have the toughest opposition. Newcastle and CCM should both get wins too (sorry).

I think Queensland, with their GD of 6, will do it.

Sadly, I reckon the Clogs are going to get it.

Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

I'm surprised with the popularity of Sydney. I'd say it's likely that they'll end up fourth after the weekend (the only team of the four to draw). Arsenal2008-01-15 11:53:13

We plan on smashing sh*tnee hard this weekend, and send them stumbling into the finals, broken, dazed and bleeding like a mugging victim.

- Jest is a very week manipulation of Jets.
- Clogs is because the Queensland Roar come from the Brisbane Lions who came from Brisbane Hollandia.  This is why they play in orange, dutch links = Clogs.
- Salty Dogs come from the Syracuse Salty Dogs in the US-League.  No particular reason i don't think, other than it sounds a bit dodgy.

How's my driving? - Whine here

CCM deserve it and annoy me the least, but i'd rather see our boys put 5 past them this week so it cant be them.

Sydney, closely followed by the planes IMO

And they fail miserably.

We're not very good at predictions.
