wow, when is the last time he played for them? I remember when he first got to the club everyone referred to him as a "Barbados international" which later turned into "former Barbados international".
he bloody deserves it though!

If that decision was a Transformer, it would be Captain Retardatron.
I like tautologies because I like them.

has deigo played in living memory?

if ifill isnt there, daniel deserves to start, he was showing some good touches last week and with more game time i reckon he will get better
I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

I think he featured a handful of times last year ( a couple of starts and a few appearances off the bench).
Agree. Daniel has shown that he should start. Good to see Leo finding the back of the net. That's his best way to tell Ricky that he should be in the starting line-up, too.

Phoenix win = 3 Points.

A win.
 
But if we lose it will be the least cared about loss for me.

so are we looking at no ifill again???

Guess pav is back.

The biggest decision is how we play without lia and lochhead.
Back 3 with manny shielding in front? I think it works the best for me the more I think about it:

                    Vukovich
    Sigmund Durante North
                     Muscat
             Ward           Brown
Bertos                                  Daniel
           Greenacre Mac/Pav

Ward has been really releasing Bertos and Greenacre more and more so think with two strikers in front of him he could become even more efficient. I think this formation utilizes our best performers in their best positions.

Any updates on Ifill's availability.

I'm hoping Toto will at least get 20 minutes on the field,
I haven't had a chance to see his skills and I want to.
I also want to see him and Daniel working together on the field this friday, as they're not bad at showing off their south american skillfull stuff.
;D

A lighthearted bit of banter to try and get kiwis and others on the coast to attend the game!!

We have a lot of respect for what you guys do at the Yellow Fever. Hopefully your team doesn't perform Friday though.

Don't be torn. If we were at home and our record was at stake, then I'd be torn, but as we're away, the optimist in me sees this game as win win

i reckon we can sneak a win here, if we come out of the blocks like we did last week and defend tooth and nail like we did once bruce li-a got sent off, i think we can put a few past mossy. pav and greenie up front?

It may be just me but I'd personally prefer to read posts directly relevant to the game against Gold Coast.
 
Could I suggest, with respect, side issues are discussed in a separate thread - unless it is just me in which case carry on.

Yep, totally agree.
 
See, this would be a good case for being able to block members.

Ifill's due for a goal I think.

Can't see Pavlovic starting. Though him coming in may allow Daniel to play as a central midfielder. Really interested to see how our midfield will shape up. Anyone seen how they're looking in training this week?
