Dave (@JeterPool), Glen (@SufferJetsCity) & Grant (@GrantBLK) review the @NewcastleJetsFC 2-0 loss to @SydneyFC at @MJStadium
Dave takes over hosting duties again for this episode. At least this time he remembered the opening question in the right spot, after which the lads get into the overall impressions of the game, before going into detail about the Jets first loss. They talk about the formation and tactics, some players performances and yet more injuries. The podcast ends with the Mark Jones press conference after the game, thanks to Fox Sports.

Furns (@SquadronNewy), Dr Emma (@Synapse101) & Grant (@Grant BLK) preview @Aleague Rd4 #NEWvSYD @NewcastleJetsFC vs @SydneyFC at @MJStadium
After the opening question, the panel discuss the horrendous stats the Jets have against Sydney FC, and then the general impressions around the upcoming game on the weekend, before an excerpt from the Fill the Hill podcast with Todd Blackwell and Grant recorded live at Jets training at Ray Watt Oval. This leads into the discussion on the squad and likely starting XI, and what tactics could end the hoodoo against the Sky Blues.
We then jump into an interview that Furns conducted with Boris (@23rbg) from the Nothing But Blue Skies where they discuss the Sydney FC side of the upcoming match going into their winning start to the season, Graham Arnold, their squad recruitment and likely lineup and how he sees the match unfolding. The panel then return to discuss any of Sydney’s weaknesses to target.
We then give our predictions for the game, along the rest of the A-League round. We finish off by going over the latest news from the last few days.
**We are very pleased to welcome Grant Black from the Fill the Hill Friday podcast (available on Soundcloud) and Anthony Scarcella to the Jetstream team for this episode and for the upcoming season.**

TALKING POINTS:
Memorable Match – 5th February 2012
The Jets play some of the most fluid and attacking football ever seen in the club, demolishing Sydney 5-2 on their home turf. Goals to Topor-Stanley, Zadkovich, Abbas and a double from Brockie give the Jets their biggest win over Sydney as well as being the first occasion the team scored 5 goals in a match.
General
The Jets are currently 10 matches without a win against Sydney. They’ve only achieved 2 draws during that time while they have lost the last 5 matches against Sydney.
The Jets have also only scored in one of the last 9 against Sydney. That was a 4-3 loss in Season 2014/15.
Sydney currently sit atop the table with 3 wins from their first 3 matches
Sydney haven’t conceded a goal in either the FFA Cup or the A-League this year – a run of 7 matches.
Players
Alex Brosque has scored 4 goals in his last 3 appearances against Newcastle.
Danny Vukovic will make his 35th appearance against the Jets. This is the most of any opposition player.
Nigel Boogaard is the first Jets centre back to score in consecutive matches. Should he score this week, he will be the first player to score in 3 consecutive matches since Edson Montano.
Former Jet David Carney will return to Newcastle for the first time since his mid-season departure from the club last year.
Newcastle Jets
The Jets have remained undefeated after the first 3 matches of a season only once before – 2007/08 when they started with a 5 match streak without loss.
If the Jets score this weekend, they will have scored in 8 consecutive A-League matches for the first time since the 2006/07 season, when the team scored in 10 matches in a row.
Newcastle have scored 7 goals in the first 3 matches this season – the most in their history. The previous record was 5 in season 2012/13.
The Jets have kept Sydney scoreless once in the last 22 matches.
Sydney FC
Sydney have never lost against the Jets when they score first.
The Jets are currently 284 minutes without scoring against Sydney.
Injuries
Newcastle Jets – Daniel Alessi – Knee (Season), Daniel Mullen – Knee (12 weeks), Ben Kennedy – Achilles (Season), Andrew Nabbout – Groin (3 weeks), Lachlan Jackson – Ankle (indefinte)
