Yep, Sanchez is back!
Cool, that's a pretty full strength 1st 11 for the first time this season! Paston should come in for Warner. It seems that if paston and warner are fairly equal it shouldn't take much from warner to be dropped to the bench.
I just want to watch World cup hero Paston play a couple of times before he retires.

Yep! Hopefully Paston gets a few more games to prove his worth. Seems like Smith is actually injured, so Ricki avoids a selection delemma.

Same match-day 15 as last week apart from Sanchez in for Smith.
Injured or dropped ?
If Smith isn't good enough to make the match day 15, and not a better option than Daniel, then it is a criminal waste of an import spot.
How long is he signed for ? If his contract is up before the January transfer window then we don't need to be limited to an Australasian when trying to sign the ever elusive striker.

Interesting read this thread. We have the same issues in Brisbane with Fox Sports showing the games live into the Brisbane area when the Roar play. For some bizarre reason it always seems to rain on match day and the live coverage does impact on our crowds. Soft cocks not wanting to go out when it rains here in Brisbane.
However, not showing your away game live just sucks. SkyNZ needs to pull its collective head in IMO.
On another point, Morwell is a cracking away trip. I've been there twice as a Northern Spirit fan in the NSL days and the locals there are fantastic. If any of your mob are going over, you are in for a fantastic trip!

Haven't seen it mentioned yet.
This game is now delayed at 7pm on sky sport 3. The golf must somehow be finishing earlier now?

7 is a much better time. and it means less time away from facebook and twitter to avoid seeing the result :p

I'm quite happy with the delayed coverage.
I'm refereeing at a tournament at 5 o'clock so, instead of missing the game, I'll be done in time to get home and watch it. Result. 
Apparently I'm apathetic, but I couldn't care less.

Well at least it's nice of TelstraClear to give us a free broadband weekend so that we can watch the Phonenix streaming live free, instead of having to wait for sky to deign to show it at whatever delayed time it ends up.
And much as I'd like to see Paston reclaim his spot, Warner has claimed the "Mr Phoenix Movember" title, beating even the Daniel "Full mo in 90 minutes" Cortez, that has to be worth something. Not a patch on this guy (though unfortunately he's not a footballer): http://www.buzzfeed.com/gavon/this-guy-won-movemberBNUgrrl2011-12-02 23:10:47

Grandadi - I think we can do this again. Piney also thinks so on the podcast, TAB less optimistic (might go for a flutter with $4 odds).

This is a tricky one. I've watched the Sydney game three times (as well as being there live) and have to say we were impressive (although well lucky not to have a penalty awarded against us).
I think Dani Sanchez is the last link we need to put in place and give St. Greenie a rest.
Not too bothered about the keeper- Pasty would be fine of course, but The Scouse Klingon is getting better, and he looks terrifying- he even scares me, looking at him.
I will hereby go out on a very long and wobbly limb-
THE Prediction is here!
(Drum rolls like distant thunder, Etna- like smoke plumes, flashes of lightning etc. etc.)
Melbourne Farts 1 Wellington Phoenix 2
Remember-
We are the Mighty Phoenix! We can beat anyone!

Cheers GD - I haven't asked JnrJnr yet. I think a 1 goal margin win as well.
You should only feel threatened by JnrJnr if you are a spotty at Miramar wharf. Or a passing jellyfish. As an octopus I think you are quite safe.

I am quietly confident as well. We just need to believe in ourselves and play how we did last week, not set up defensively away from home like we usually do (ok I concede this worked in Brisbane). Scoring more than once would be a big help too...

After 54 mins we were.
We were pretty good at GCU & Perf too (not overly defensive).
We've also been good when we've played Adelaide at their other home ground, Lancaster Park.
