    I'm really interested this weekend to see how we match up against a Back 3.

    No other team has strayed from the cirriculum, sorry, plays a different formation from 4231/433 in the league so I wonder how that will match up?

    How long do they expect him out ? Hopefully for his sake it's nothing too serious.

    I reckon with Ronny Roy and co available we kill it

    I reckon without them we will still do well

    There is space to exploit in a back 3 and the way we attacking this season the opportunity arises then even more for us

    Such a shame that with these big games over the last few weeks we don't have a full strength team.

    If we win this as we are we must be seriously considered as a major threat with artillery to return.

    MFKS is correct.

    Bernie Skerrick has to turn the losing mindset around, we are towards the pointy end of the table for a reason. We deserve it based on our play.

    It’s not lucky, the players shouldn’t be waiting for the other shoe to drop (although as a fan, I admit I am still wary). Confidence must and by all rights should be high.

    The general football media....last Saturday after Sydney won the they showed the ladder and said "Sydney are now two wins clear of Melbourne City".

    No mention of us at all...we are not on the radar of the big media just yet. We, like the Mariners are a feel good story.

    with the danger of slipping into captain obvious territory, tonight really does seem to me to be a critical match. win, we keep the pressure on sydney and also move two games clear of city. a loss isn't a disaster (we can't move out of second this week), but it gives sydney some space and puts city on our heels.

    Pressure is on the opposition

    god bozza is a dick some time.

    pre-game conversation roughly went:

    peacock: "how good are newcastle going?"
    bozza: "well you know sydney have been going really well, but apart from them, newcastle are doing ok"
