Wellington Phoenix v Adelaide United (Pre

So, whos going to take spoils of this match when we see adelaide united coming off a cruel loss thanks to the hands of the Jets while our boys are rolling into town with their first a-league win under their belt and looking for their first win at home. Hard News2007-09-17 15:31:23

I think 2-1 Phoenix.

Need to keep young Burns quiet.

First home win!  CMON!!!

Who put Adelaide 3+??? Come on own up.

Sorry that wasnt me haha

i havnt bin impressed with adelaide at all so far i nix 2-0

Yep!!  First home win will be grand, plus should be a good crowd.  Really looking forward to it.

phoenix to win  adelaide are not all that flash at the moment
 question though - do we clap  jonas salley  or give him the big "who are ya"  
being ex knights player and  all wasn't sure how we should treat him
 what do you reckon 

Just ingore him, give the kiddies the WHo are 'ya.  Blokes like the Black Brockie and the Flying Mullet (Djite and Spagnuolo), hopefully Burns isn't available.

Jonas who?

In his defence he desperately wanted to play here but when things looked all but dead and buried had to answer Adelaide's contract offer.  Things got resurrected here just too late.

He'd been telling anyone in Melbourne who asked that he wanted to be back here up until that point.

 

 i really liked him,  i wanted him and leilei gao too  stay ,shame how it came about.
he was one of the better mid fielders  Paul Nevin recruited,never understood him getting Scot Gemmil in for the knights though that wasn't wise

Adeliede arent too bad (they were just as unlucky as we were against the Jetz (who are boring, but 2nd on the ladder!). Im going to say a draw (while desperatly hope for a win). Theyve got some good players especially up front wiht Burns, Djite and Agostino. I loved Salley too (i dont think it was a coincidence that wen he didnt play the Knights were crap or crapper) but now hes a t**ser!

Nix 2-1.

nix 1-0 i reckon, we look solid in defense at the moment (most of the time)

An important qualifier...

ha i picked Adelaide as grandfinal winners pre-season, but they don't seem like it at this stage...heart says 1-0, brain says shutup brain

I dont know, i mean adelaide did look good against the jets, but i mean we rocked the boat against sydney.

yeah - at least one win is important - otherwise it will be four games in a row without a home win - enough to turn the casual fan off! 2-1 in favour of the phoenix I say.

2-1 Phoenix another Felipe stunner, and a goal for Ferrante (fingers crossed),

yep i predict another 2-1 win although Phoenix good chance of scoring 3 , see you guys in the zone on Saturday !

I recon the score is goin to be 2-0 to the phoenix and Aloisi and Smelts will be the scores

i heard there will be heaps of noise from the greek zone this week?

Adelaide are going to be really tough with Burns. They looked sh*te last week but Burns carries that team.

I'll say 2-1 but wouldn't be suprised if it was a draw.

Any one know if Browns fit to play yet? uncle steve2007-09-17 23:03:56

2-0 Phoenix!

Felipe for another scorcher and Dodd for one off a corner

he was, but then he fell down a well....

If we score first - it could get 3+ I think.  The main thing I want to see is a clean sheet, we've been pretty solid in defense but seem to let easy goals in early on.  If we can tighten the off-the-bat defense I think we're going to do really well.

Score first and clean sheet, I'm saying 2-0

if George makes the bench i'd imagine that'd happen

I'm going 2-1. 1-1 at half time then a stunner of a second half to bring it home.
I think we've worked out that the round thing goes in the rectangular thing (instead of over the top of the rectangular thing).

Our defence is now top notch, and I think Smeltz is due a goal too.

Well from what i gather, the nix are going to win it by1-2 goal margin!!!

has tab released odds yet?

Not on the website yet.

They've scored goals in their games but also conceded as many

2-1 Phoenix

Phoenix 2-0. And lets just hope when the nix win that the yellow fever section keeps their shirts on this time!
