[plague]

Reasons for the upcoming loss:


1. Luck will run out.
2. That Gypo McKinna won’t pick Johnny K to start.
3. Boogaard.
4. Plague Jnr will be in attendance.

Your starting Johnny K over Daniel G??

[Premy]

Your starting Johnny K over Daniel G??

Why wouldn't you? Johnny K would be on a high and full of confidence, Georgie Boy has missed a few games through injury and would be lacking match fitness. Start Johnny and put Georgie Boy on the bench ease him back into the first XI once his fully fit.

[plague]

Your starting Johnny K over Daniel G??

Start both.

McKinna won’t.

[StannyCFCJET]

Start both.

McKinna won’t.

Soo Hoffy or one of Cms on the bench?

Wrong wrong wrong

I ****ing embarrassed reading this

Drop Boogaard FFS

Simple as Plague

Johnny K at the back with Topor King Vuj and Georgevski

Clean sheet coming
Winning the league etc

[plague]

Johnny K at the back with Topor King Vuj and Georgevski


Johnny K is a striker.

but you're right about Boogaard.
Lets play with 10.

[Superdylan]

We've never beaten Adelaide at home in an afternoon fixture. All our wins against them have been at games 7pm or later.

This has 1-1 written all over it.

[hawk]

No Roy No Joy

Get some Christmas cheer into ya and dont look at the ladder. Party on Wayne

[The Camel]

No Roy No Joy

Get some Christmas cheer into ya and dont look at the ladder. Party on Wayne

There's no Party with Wayne. Brown is the shittiest footballer we have. He's worse than Boogaard

[hawk]

Not that Wayne.

But the other Wayne (Browntown) should get on the scotch ad celebrate the bench

[The Camel]

Not that Wayne.

But the other Wayne (Browntown) should get on the scotch ad celebrate the bench

He should not even be making the bench

[Jeterpool]

We've never beaten Adelaide at home in an afternoon fixture. All our wins against them have been at games 7pm or later.

This has 1-1 written all over it.

And we've only ever lost to them twice in an afternoon fixture at home.

Still think we willi win

[Jetmaster]

Spanish Round - Barrel Boys have more than us.

We loose.

[380]

Not much of a lesser lineup than recent times. Win

[Jeterpool]

Stephen Lucas is refereeing....urgh

He recently refereed us against Victory and that 4-1 win was the first win we'd ever had when he officiated. Our record when Lucas has been ref is 1 win, 2 draws, 5 losses.

Handing out on average 5 cards a game.

[380]

Boogs a special then to see red,

But don't forget we were shit for 7 of them games

2 draws 5 losses in those seven means he was not the bloke who caused us to lose

We did that on our own

[belchardo]

with sydney taking points off city or vice versa tonight (hopefully a draw!), this is a great opportunity for us. simply must win.

If we win we put daylight between us and 4th

If the VAR continues to assist Smurfs v Heart and we win we put daylight between us and 3rd

Winning is a good thing tomorrow for us regardless

[Jetmaster]

Why do we bother though? Last nights game according to Fox was between the league's top two teams "although Newcastle are second at the moment".

[Jeterpool]

Not even trying to disguise their bias

[belchardo]

at one point hill was saying ''if sydney win tonight they go 9 points clear at the top of the table". a minute or so later he added ''although newcastle play tomorrow night''

nah thats just commentator speak. you hear it often.

Def not an anti-Newy thing.

[Mark325]

Ugarkovic is playing wing, browns moved into the centre of the park, johnny k playing right back and hoff moved to the bench

[Hunter403]

3 mins in and already Adelaide looking more energetic and committed to the ball

[StannyCFCJET]

Our formation is a shambles atm square pegs round holes!!

[Hunter403]

We look bereft of ideas going forward. Kanta's passing has gotten worse as the half as gone on. Why is Brown playing?

The ref is his usual crap standard

[Hunter403]

Brown off and Ugar more central. Ugar wasted and Brown a waste

[The Camel]

We look bereft of ideas going forward. Kanta's passing has gotten worse as the half as gone on. Why is Brown playing?

The ref is his usual crap standard
Brown is like this team's Kryptonite. He's just horrible and brings everyone else down

[StannyCFCJET]

Love Merrick but he made big mistakes in his team today

[Hunter403]

Love Merrick but he made big mistakes in his team today

Well let's see if he has the courage or nouse to make changes

[StannyCFCJET]

Well let's see if he has the courage or nouse to make changes

Needs to be early changes or no point

[The Dunster]

Too much piss farting about with the ball rather than pumping it forward and into the box.

Wayne Brown makes an amoeba look like a complex life form. Hook him Ernie please.

[halo se7en]

Well let's see if he has the courage or nouse to make changes

He generally has this season. I’m thinking Hoff for Johnny - he’s going to get himself a second yellow. Brown off, Uga central... where’s Shabow? Not sure if Clut will bring a lot but he or younger Petratos will surely be a better option than Brown.

Some of those FKs we were getting 35-40 yds were in a perfect spot to float them in. The breeze would have kept it away from their keeper plus he would have been looking into the sun.

[StannyCFCJET]

He didnt change a thing ffs

[hawk]

always look on the bright side of death da-da, da-da da-da da-da

[Hunter403]

Johnny K really struggling

[StannyCFCJET]

Johnny K really struggling

Cause he is not a RB and Hoffy on the bench good stuff jets

[hawk]

Oh Chumpness

[The Dunster]

Hoal looked dodgy.

[Retro Jet]

From where I'm sitting Adelaide defender knocked it back in the tackle to Nabbout.

[Hunter403]

Hoal looked dodgy.

You mean Hoole looks dodgy.... Goal was good

[StannyCFCJET]

Jackson to RB? Hoffy still on bench?

[Hunter403]

Boogaard you lazy bastard

[hawk]

Narbooty

[Hunter403]

Jets asleep in this half. Think Ernie might have nodded off too

[hawk]

Scared to do tackle on halfway. Serve the cunce right.

[Hunter403]

Smacking Dimi in the head! Only a yellow?????

[Retro Jet]

Bunch o' whinging beotches.
Book the lot of em.

[westjet]

I would be furious if that was given as a handball against us. Dont know how it wasnt overturned.

[The Dunster]

Var ��

[Hunter403]

This season Lady Luck is finally shining on us. Out of gaol there!

[halo se7en]

This season Lady Luck is finally shining on us. Out of gaol there!

Again. The league won’t stand a chance when our team actually clicks.

[plague]

Archie Thompson post game (discussing Adelaides goal)
"i have no idea what Boogaard was doing there, he knows who he has to defend yet hes 2m away from the man making the run".


Archie Thompson is a clever and smart man.

[hawk]

Handball all day. hawkeye saw it. eat a bag slippery diks

[plague]

This season Lady Luck is finally shining on us. Out of gaol there!

sexism.

Luck is a binary gender fluid being.

[Couscous]

I hate winning like this.

[Retro Jet]

Handball all day. hawkeye saw it. eat a bag slippery diks

Old school crew see it for what it was bro.
We've had a shitload go against us over the years.
Bit of luck going our way again.

Reegz making all the right impressions...enjoy Christmas in Adelaide son.

[Retro Jet]

I hate winning like this.

Lucky you don't support Shitney then...

I love winning hate playing like potatoes

yeeeeew

[MFKS]

9 points clear of 4th spot now

More importantly 11th points off last place
And we still get to play those peasents twice more

How good is it to be alive??

[MFKS]

On another note

No Roy
No Ronny

**** we look light on up front on paper

The fact cunce can't keep us scoreless with what is a pretty toothless looking side on paper is a right laugh

11 in a row

[Retro Jet]

Boogaard you lazy bastard

Just watched the replay.
I'd like the MRP to red card the sloth for attacking the defenseless near post
after that lethargic attempt at marking.

[Mark325]

Is shabow injured or what's the go with him?

[Wilso8948]

Is shabow injured or what's the go with him?
He was the one omitted from the matchday squad. In my opinion he is far from the finished product. I didn't really understand the hype some people had when he's come on in recent weeks

[Mark325]

I don't think he's the finished product yet but he's better then clut and doesn't seem to have the attitude problems of clut so I wonder why he isn't in over him

[StannyCFCJET]

I don't think he's the finished product yet but he's better then clut and doesn't seem to have the attitude problems of clut so I wonder why he isn't in over him

Clut is getting time on the bench and a few minutes maybe the attitude is gone

[plague]

lost in all the nonsense of the VCR ref last night geez Nabouts turn and shoot was sublime.

super technique.
