*Jeterpool add in 1000's of stats here*
Season kicks off with a family friendly Sunday game and the Jets with their new manager are expecting to kick the barrel boys off the park. Put the 3pts up on the table already.
The big interest will be in who starts in goal and will the 5 star Chinese flag be on the shirt badge. Jets 4-1
Please. All eyes will be on the new gaffers threads and shoes. Nothing else matters.Quote:

Lose.
Doomed.
etc etc.....
Yep lose
moving forward
Extraordinary victory, which will top the 2-3 v City at the start of last season. Everyone will think Jones is great, just like they thought Miller was after the Melbourne match.
However, after a few rounds, Jones will stutter, the team will collapse, Jones will eventually be sacked and Our Saviour will be brought in.

Nah Jones was the real brains behind our championship season wasn't he Couscous ??????.
GVE got the accolades when really it was Jones who carried the head coach to glory.

- Only 6 players have scored on their A-League debut for the Newcastle Jets. Milos Trifunovic and Byun Sung-Hwan are the only two to have scored a debut goal in Round 1.

PREDICTION: –
After what seemed like an uncharacteristically stable off season where a gradual build-up in friendly matches and an overseas tour, the Jets again delivered by terminating the contract of Scott Miller. After a 3 week search the Jets appointed former assistant Mark Jones in his first A-League coaching job - the third debut appointment in a row for the club.
Despite losing 3-1 to the Victory on a wild wet and windy night in the FFA Cup, the Jets have had a generaly successful preseason - highlighted by the goalscoring form of Andrew Hoole and Andrew Nabbout. This might come too quick for Mateo Poljak (Hamstring) and Labinot Haliti (Knee) to return from injury.
Reigning champions Adelaide have lost a number of players, primarily in the forward line but have otherwise managed to retain the spine of their title winning team.
The Jets haven't had a great recent record against Adelaide. Will Mark Jones have had enough time to make his influence on the team prior to this match? How will Adelaide's new look forward line gel?
I think the departure of Miller so close to the start of the season will see the Jets struggle as they adapt to his game plan while the champions will have too much class.
LINE UP (Predicted) Duncan, Hoffman, Mullen, Boogaard, Cowburn, Ugarkovic, Brown, Nabbout, Nordstrand, Hoole, Kokko.
Adelaide 1-0

Hello Craig. Please tell Zach:
- that the optimal length of a social media video is 30 seconds;
- to straighten the picture (of dolls?) on his wall;
- to place himself in the centre of the filmed area (he's too low in the screen, and a bit to the right - it's distracting);
- that I also find the hula hoop distracting (possibly because it's neon orange);
- that I'd like to hear his views on which coach we should have (e.g. Miller? Papas? Gombau? GVE?)
Many thanks.
Jets 1-0. Hoole to continue his scoring run from pre-season.
We had a good record against the champions last year, and we have a decent record against them at home when they've generally always been stronger than us.
Welcome Craig. Good on Zach getting in and having a go! It's very brave of him.Quote:

I think last season was 0-0, 0-0, and 0-1 to them.Quote:
