General

Players

  • Devante Clut, Wayne Brown, Andrew Nabbout, Kristian Brymora, Ivan Vujica and Aleksandr Kokko are in line to make their A-League debut for the club. The next player to appear will be player #139 for the Jets.
  • 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.
  • This will be the first season in the last 4 that Mark Birighitti has not started 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 generally 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

SQUAD: – 2. Daniel MULLEN, 3. Jason HOFFMAN, 4. Nigel BOOGAARD (C), 5. Ben KANTAROVSKI, 6. Steven UGARKOVIC, 7. Andrew HOOLE, 8. Mateo POLJAK, 9. Aleksandr KOKKO, 10. Wayne BROWN, 11.

The Jetstream Podcast Ep57 – A Renovators Dream

Michael (@BodyNovo) hosts this episode and is joined by Emma (@Synapse101) and Glen (@SufferJetsCity) LIVE at Wests New Lambton. Both Furns (@newyboys) and David (@JeterPool) are away this week.
After the opening question, we jump into discussing an entertaining 2-1 loss in our final home game this season at Hunter Stadium against the resurgent Perth Glory. We go through the major talking points from the game (there were a few!!), reviewing the overall performance while discussing player performances and tactics. We also have our regular “bitch about the refereeing” segment – which now seems to be a weekly feature.
We talk about the latest news on the ownership front with a Hawaiian businessman present at the game on sunday to offer some possible HAL licence competition to Mr Martin Lee.
Then we preview our penultimate game of the regular season this Sunday 3rd April March against Brisbane Roar away at Suncorp Stadium. We finish the episode by giving our tips and thoughts on the rest of the games in Round 26.
