WE bet perth 4-1. We not the only team to be given a drubbing + adelaide imo are the best team in the league.
 
Yeah, give them credit, Adelaide are a fine team and in really good form.  Pantelis, Dodd and Burns have ripped a few teams up this year, including Melbourne.  Maybe they didn't let the Nix play rather than the Nix being rubbish.
 
I would think the Phoenix would beat the All Whites 9 out of 10 games

but do smeltz and lochead get to play for both sides?
 
if so, i am thinking it would be an interesting game. AW's would be bloody solid at the back with nelsen and vicelich and elliot playing the holding role. and would have strength up front in killen
 
nix would have the brazillians but would still be rubbish at the back
 
actually id back the AWs
 
enuf, this is a ludicrous proposition to even be contemplating

Gotta agree with that last comment mate. And Bunce wasn't too bad for the Knights last season, and he's sure better than anything I've seen coming out of our centre defence this season (bar Dodd).

Smeltz would play for the Nix and Smells would play for the AW's
Tony Lochhead would play for the Nix and Andy Lochhead for the AW's
 
Problem solved.

it's actually not the dumbest of suggestions. 
 
i don't know what happened in the americas, but have no doubt that if it didn't, bunce would not be blessing hamilton with his real estate skills and that we would be an essential member of the all whites world cup squad and also featuring for the phoenix.

Where do you get these ideas exactly?

Like it or not, I reckon we're more or less going to have to soldier on with what we've got. It's alright coming up with all these names but, at the moment, we've got no spaces in the squad so we'd have to punt a few people to get anybody else in. Buckle up and enjoy the ride fellas!


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

Danny Biggie - banstick if you keep suggesting
 
On a positive note - we weren't too bad for 46min of the first half and some of the start of the second. Pity he didnt blow the full time whistle after Smeltzy scored..

I actually thought, overall, it was better performance than the one we put on against Queensland (?) away, when we looked absolutely piss dreadful and managed about 1 shot in the entire 90 minutes. (***Puts head down and waits for the abuse***)

Can't of been better overall we got torn to shreds at the back today. Queensland never did that to us.

Exactly.  All these names being mentioned have had a go at this level and been found wanting.  We're just going to have to accept it's between us and Perth for eight place and get excited about any points we can get along the way.  Sorry to be so negative but getting spanked by Adelaide reserves makes last week's lottery look acceptable.

Cosy your suggestions are the most ridiculous.  Harry Ngata was a joke.

1st half yes but i get bloody nervous EVERYTIME the ball gets in our half.It just wasnt down the centre or the right tonite they seemed to have plenty of room but also down the left.When ever they moved forward it seemed like they had heaps of room in front of them.

I dont think trying to suggest we should pull in xyz players from outside is really going to fix it,as thats not about to happen so to me its pointless even trying to suggest we get even more oldies.

I think all of you guys are outta line by bagging Danny Biggie. He has made some suggestions (some good and some suspect). I'm sure you have made suggestions people disagree with, but the whole of yellowfever hasn't turned against you for it.

Honestly guys, come on.

The whole of Yellow Fever hasn't turned against him that comment right there is bollocks he's just making it out as if they have by playing the sad miserable victim. It's not as if any of us a threatening him with violence or even worse, come on!!!
 
If you can't handle a few people giving you some stick on a forum i may ad, then your a soft cock. Simple as that.

its hard to do well when you havent played for 15 months. he mangled his achilles.  misdiagnosed about three times. slowly recovering from surgery.
