It will be more than Danny A we will have to worry about.
On todays performance we will get hammered.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

we just have to score more then

We are at home so fingers crossed the team will be lifted. But to be honest I'm worried about this game.

Melbourne play the Mariners on Friday - hope lies in; Melbourne being slightly jaded, one or two of their key players being suspended, another one or two being injured and another couple missing the flight.
 
For us hope lies in Lochhead starting freeing up Manny do a job on Hernandez and prayer.

For me, I would go

                      Vukovich
Sigmund Durante North Lochhead
                        Muscat
Ward               Brown              Rojas
        Greenacre    MacAllister

Crowther Hearfield Daniel Bertos


I really wish we had a different strike option, but this is what we have, so we gotta make do. I would also start looking seriously at Toto as a "new" January signing.
If he can actually perform in the reserves, then lets hope he can fire us up.

Also, sign Lovemore..

Can't afford to give up soft goals like the two we gave up the last time we played them.

Lia gone? Maybe he fires up against his old team.

Musc**t had a dirty tug of Marco's shirt and I hope he gets sent for something stupid

4-4-2. thats all I have to say.. 4-4-2.

^^^ This, this every week! Most of our best performances come from 4-4-2, I still have faith that Greenie and DMac can be a winning combination upfront but only if we give them the kind of service they require.
Lovemore who?

Like it. And I think this team is capable of doing some serious damage.

Season defining game, if we don't win we can basically kiss the finals goodbye.

Also, Kids are FREE! So we MUST MUST MUST try and fill up the stadium as best we can.

This is not gonna be easy and a big crowd for the boys is he least our city can do to help our push towards the finals

Don't think North will be there - Socceroos named later today and he should be in that team.  But so might Robbie Kruse...

Such a silly idea to do it for this game.
1) Midweek
2) Half the wgtn population is out of town.

No Kruse of Thompson thats good for us, Ricardinho hasnt yet hit his stride and lets hope alllsopp isnt up to it yet.

That just means Durante can come in and either Troy or Muscat will be RB if Lochhead is good to come into the lineup

Yup North named as one of 4 A-League players in squad. They have a game on 5th Jan also so he won't be playing for us. Kruse also named so won't be playing against us....

Yup Culina and Mckay the other two A-League players in squad.
 
So with North gone Dura will go straight back in CB. I assume either Lia or Hearfield will be dropped with Muscat going to RB or CM depending on who.
 
Or the other option could be to drop both and play Musa, with siggy going to RB and Muscat CM.

I liked PWF's lineup too. With north in the oz squad i'd go with this;

                    Vukovich
Hearfield-Sigmund-Durante-Lochead
       Ward-Muscat-Brown-Rojas
           Greenacre-MacAllister

 I like that team.....
Greenie needs to up his performance. He's lost the killer touch up front.....shanking shots and missing sitters. He should be thriving alongside Dmac but he was ordinary in Townsville. he's probably there because there is no logical replacement. Lia to the bench is good as well...really like Rojas and Ward out wide. Leo is obviously not 100% fit....he needs a break.
 
Without Kruse and Thompson Victory will not be as good. Its still a tough game but we can and should win it.

Yip that should be the side, so lets hope Ricki mans up and rests leo.

Wish we had a better striking option or atleast something different? Wonder how Pav would go on the bench?

I would like to see the above formation with Lia, Daniel, and Pav/Toto on the bench.

I just would rather Leo actually take some time out to heal rather than more average performances. But cant see it happening unfortunately

Ok, ive avoided this for too long but...
                   vuko
Hearfield Siggy Durante Lockhead
               Manny Brown
Ward                             Rojas
          Greenie Big Mac

Crowther Daniel Lia Pav

Don't want to use Bertos yet. He aint recovered enough for my liking.
Also could put manny in right back and use lia in DM. Would give Hearfield as a def/mid cover as well
Daniel to replace Rojas at 65th minute
