vs Planes Sunday 4:30pm

 Junior News is well padded.

Ball boy, hide the ball,

Ball boy, ball boy, hide the ball!

Truffle shuffle for half time show

I'd really love to see us score first this weekend.

Is Isaka Cernak playing?

Pax 6486

Manny Muscat back from suspension, but Lia out right?

Could look like this?

                  Paston

Bertos  Durante Siggy Lochhead/Hogg

                   Manny

Ifilll              Sanchez         Fenton

                   Brockie

Smith Boyd Cernak Moss

Oops. Forgot waffles.

Insert him in the bench for Boyd or Cernak.

I just want us to win the toss and play towards the Fever end in the second half for a change.

 3-1 phoenix.

^I'll 1 up ya. 4-1

150th game for the nix! 4-0 to us......Ifill to score twice and Boyd to break his duck.

We Don't need Sophistication

We Don't need no Cat Control

No interruptions from the Boardroom

Gareth leave our team alone...

starting lineup is going to be super interesting this week.

As long as Smith is nowhere near it , I'll be slightly happier.

Last week was one of the most tepid performances from a Nix player I have ever seen. Even though Lia and Manny lack a bit skill-wise, you can never say they don't put the effort in. Smith was having a Sunday jog the entire game.

2nd best at training suggests same back line. Then manny sancho iffy Fenton Boyd Brockie. I'm guessing 4 1 3 2 from that but dunno

let's hope they can do the bizzo this time - COME ON NIXXXXERS

That's probably our most attacking line up.  I think each weekend we end up carrying one of Boyd or Fenton but I'm not sure which one week to week should start.  My main worry is who will play back to goal in that side?  Clearly RH doesn't fancy Huysegems - he'll be off at the end of the season won't he?

he has such a powerful shot. It's a shame he hasn't fitted in well.

Bit of positive news, bathe in the sun at the nix

We want 7. We want 7

days of sunshine rather than the offered 10...like settling for draw pre match.

No Stein...:>(...pace is fine but its needs to produce something.  I stil think we played better with him in the team early on in the season than without.

Fail. Insert Boyd, beside Brockie, as per other reports.

Appears players are focused anyway after a head stuff of a week. 

Get a feeling they'll be fired up for this game. Think this has bought them closer as a unit again. 

That would be a good spin-off from a pretty horrendous couple of weeks I guess. I'll be there - it will turn around!!!!

I've just won two tickets to the game from the TAB, in the West Lounge. I don't want to desert the Fever Zone, so if you want to use them instead send me an email on patrick478@gmail.com. Dinner and drink are included, and the first person to email me gets them. Strictly R18.

Aaaaand they're gone.

Surely there has to be changes after a 7-1 drubbing! but who goes? Yes Muscat is in, yes Ifill is in, but surely others must be replaced?

Was never going to happen.

In the Ins and Outs listings on FFA web site, No Cernak and Stein till in squad

Nice one :-)

 Dura I salute you "If I can say my part to the fans, get out there and support the team. You'll see a much better performance from us and we don't want to let them down, especially in front of the home crowd. Regardless of what Gareth said, as players we want you guys out there and the Yellow Fever and everyone involved at the Cake Tin are very important to us and if we are going to get out of this we need everyone pulling in the same direction, fans included.''
