[MFKS]

After watching Perth play last weekend am expecting them to turn it on this weekend

They were ****ing woeful against the Gypos


Kenny will have ripped them new Arse holes and made their ears bleed

Am expecting a loss for us

Business as usual in Perth

[MFKS]

More importantly what price Perth paying???

Need some extra spending money for my next trip Los

[plague]

I had a horrid gambling weekend so I'm chasing it by putting everything on Perth.

Be good boys and roll over like the good old days please Jets ta.

[StannyCFCJET]

Jets 4-1 thinking perf have major off field issues and are on a big downward spiral. Brown will get a double back from injury and Boogs will be MOTM again

[hawk]

1-4. we're due

[cobra23]

1-4. we're due

we will win..
IAN FYFE man of match

[Jeterpool]

We've got a second chance to do what we failed to do against Western Sydney - beat a team around us in contention for the Top 6.

I hope we've learned from that match and take a different approach than we did a few weeks ago.

It's also going to be interesting to see who will fill in for Ugarkovic. Will Brown be fit? I believe Kanta is ready to go. Could Cowburn slot in midfield?

Kanta? Not if we want to win. play Brown deeper keep the front 4 the same

Kanta alongside Ugarkovic started the season and we were playing really well.

[StannyCFCJET]

Kanta has been finished as an aleague player for about 2/3 seasons now. Boogs is the only walking red card we need. Kanta only looked good cause Stevie U was immense early season

[Jeterpool]

Kanta only looked good cause Stevie U was immense early season

I guess we will disagree on that point, because I thought Kanta was playing very well early on. We were discussing on the podcast at the time how we thought Poljak would get back in. We've looked best when both, no just one, midfielders were playing well this season.

[StannyCFCJET]

Round 1 Kanta's passing was beyond a joke. Ill agree he was decent round 2 against the roar and round 3 he gives away that dodgy penalty. round 4 was the injury??

Kanta's passing accuracy was 76% that match, compared to Stevie U-G at 78% who you said was immense? Kanta played the most passes of any Jets player in that match too. Round 3 he gets a dodgy pen while filling in as a defender due to the injuries - how is that his fault? And yes, injury round 4 before coming off the bench in Round 7.

[StannyCFCJET]

Watching the Adelaide game all I saw was Kanta passing straight to Adelaide but its not all about passing, against the Roar we were lucky they were rubbish because Kanta was applying zero pressure on anyone in midfield. I suppose Kanta gets a pass against wsw cause everyone can see he cannot play cb so when he's picked there Its no surprise he doesn't do well

No Kanta in the squad this week. I guess our discussion was pointless

I expect we will see Wayne Brown next to Poljak. Mind you I never considered Koutroumbis! That could also be an option.

[Wilso8948]

No Kokko either
