WPM R8 vs Brisbane | Wed 16th February | 7:25pm | SS7

Leichhardt Oval hosts the Nix & will be open to fans. Hopefully the early kick off doesn't stop the SydNix fans from attending.

We always lose to Roar when it matters, and there coming off smashing the Bulls 3-1 while we are coming off a dire draw with Adelaide. Don't put money on this match unless its on Brisbane. 5-1 Roar.

Let's hope the legs aren't feeling too heavy after the recent run and the Adelaide result gets the boys FIRED UP FOR THREE POINTS

Come on boys, this could be a great night. Time for a defender to score a goal.

Looking forward to this one! Rufer has been getting ever so close to breaking his duck. Hope does it tonight! 

IF Rufer had scored from that tight angle, it would have been a contender for team goal of the season

any goal Rufer scores will have to go down as goal of the season.

Alex Rufer at a not too bad $10 anytime goal scorer (considering he's never smashed one in).

George Ott @ $3.75 🥴 

Also note TAB have got Brisbane as slight favourites for this one... They've obviously only tuned in to the past couple of weeks of the season eh?

COYN! 🟡⚫🦅
Great bloody kick off time tonight too!

Fire Up!

I wonder how much Rotation Uffie will do for this game as Sydney in the wkd would be seen as the tougher game and also playing their 4th game in 10 days. Maybe we'll see something like this if he wants to rotate some players

Maybe I missed the sarcasm but a guy who hasn't scored in how many he's played should have odds drastically higher than $10. The vig NZ TAB takes is disgusting, most of those odds are laughable and a huge rip off. 

The sarcasm was more towards George Ott being at $3.75.
You'd think he'd be banging them in week in, week out at those prices...

Agree on Rufer, should be around 25/1 or $25 (depending how you read it) for mine for someone who hasn't troubled the scorers. Perhaps with his close efforts recently those odds have come down. 🤷‍♂️

I think he'll go all out to chase the win tonight against the Roar who are coming off only a 3 day break, plus interstate travel.

Only change Hooper in for Sotiro. But yeah start subbing some of those upfront attackers from 55-60 mins, plus move Payne into CB, and Fenton on. Mcgarry may also make this bench this time, so can spell Sutton in need.

27 degrees in Sydney so bit warmer than against Adelaide.

Consistency is the key it seems. Unchanged line up once again.

 Was going to say I thought Bally could use a rest but obviously Uffy must not think Hooper is ready for a start

$24 on being the first goalscorer has to be worth a tenner or a twenty. Shame i don't have an account and am stuck at work! :( 

I kind of remember what Waine looks like, but the memory is getting hazier every week.

clearly he's not doing something right, he was well on Talay's radar early on.

 Is that since the missed penalty? 

Is Sky Sport 7 missing only from my play station?? Doesn't seem to be there... 

NVM: found it.... 😂

game on!!!

Waine set to mark his 50th if he gets on tonight.

What’s up with McGarry? Sutton shouldn’t be dropped but you’d think McGarry would be making the bench coz he can play in a few different positions 

Mainland FC

It's like a fever dream of sorts...

LOL at Archie Thompson dislocating his jaw trying to say 'Mileusnic'

Any streams out there?

Clayton Lewis involved in two what would have been screamers. The first cross and then that long shot. Loving what I'm seeing from him so far.

EDIT: make that a third. 

we've definitely bossed the first 10 minutes

Lewis almost scored two screamers 

Ooph. So close

he should have had a hattrick!

We are killing them on win probability!

Poor giveaway there. Great tracking back from Wootton to deny them. Need to be better with the passing in the middle there - Mileusnic will burn us if given the chance...

Oli Sail wow

Sail! The superlatives we have for you don't do you justice. That was sneaking in the top corner. Great save through an obscured view and several bodies ahead of him.

Great couple of interventions from Sail.

Even though they only played three days ago Roar look fresher to me. Heavy schedule and heat maybe having an effect on us. We aren't playing too badly but Roar look more lively.

Fudge yes!!

So what do I know?! Nice header.
