I will be traveling up for this one... so I'll probably jinx it and we add another L to the streak.

Canberra have Milovojovic and Heyman, 9 goals each, and also have Deven Jackson and ruby Nathan.

Difficult to see why they are so low in the table. If they get if right, this is a real challenge.

They may have 9 goals each those strikers but they down the bottom of the table so must be vulnerable at the back - if teams create chances against canberra they should win. We will be alright!!

Barry and Michaela F. " in doubt".

Hmm.

4 away games after this.
We can cope without Foster, but if Barry is no good, then it could be very challenging.

Davidson   Taylor   Lake  McMeeken 
is a pretty solid back 4 with Jaber off the bench.
Just need to fill that CDM role.
Errington looked good last week.  Or I'm sur Longo could do a job there with Farser and Whinham playing further forward.  
Exposing our depth after injuries to Knott and Wisnewski.

More changes is personnel and positioning is the last thing we needed though. Just haven't been able to settle into a solid starting XI this season.
If Barry and Foster are marginal. No point risking them.

We are heavy heavy favourites which feels like Canberra is the worthwhile bet.

We were tough as hell to beat at home, but we have slid in previous weeks.

I just can't put money against my own team.

Feels like Robertson never really got given a chance. Weird that Brazendale and Mcmillian are now set to make debuts when we already have a very light squad… Brown is out of the squad as well right?

Robertson has a poor technical level and at best provides some pace off the bench. 

Something curious going on with Brown this season - confusing as she was brilliant in the NPL NSW

Do Canberra practice shooting in training?

Does anyone know why that wasn’t a goal from the corner? From the stands nothing seemed out of the ordinary

  • I'm at the game. Good game to watch,pretty even. We are playing  beautiful stuff at times,but delivery is not good enough. Yet. Couldn't see why  the goal was disallowed.  Push?

Some of these final passes have been very poor - Breslin a particularly bad culprit. 

Still fancy us to win this. Canberra really struggling to defend the wings

That is up there with the Kosta assist, if not better. 

Fake out you’re going to pass out wide. Then with the outside of the boot pass in behind so that it curves and stops and the striker has a one touch finish. 

Absolutely gorgeous goal.

Edit: Fever sound great on tele.

Good move,well taken goal.
Everyone is doing their bit. We are a different team with Fraser out there.
We have dominated the last 20,but Heymann worries me, Canberra should have played her in a couple of times. 
Much better to watch than the men,dare I say it.

Pretty dominant in that last 20 min. Let's hope we can continue that with the wind at our backs 2nd half. 
Feel we need to score at least one more. Canberra likely to get a goal at some point.

Robertson not given a chance? She has 16 appearances across 1.5 seasons, with 10 starts. Although theoretically a forward, she has scored one solitary goal for the Nix, and that was last season when the ball literally dropped at her feet while she was standing under the cross-bar. This season she's muffed two one-on-ones with the keeper and in her games for the reserves she was no better than anyone else on the pitch.

We have a very fluid backline. Have we gone to 3 at the back?

Edit..back to standard now I think!
