3 points is a must today. If we win, then I’d consider resting Goodwin for the next game given his workload.

 

[Greasyrhys]

11 games without a clean sheet, just shows our fragile the defence is.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

We're going to c*ck up top 2 aren't we?

 

[Greasyrhys]

Classical f*** up performance that was. With only one championship from 12 previous finals campaigns, the club only seems to be content with making the finals & nothing more. Will NOT be surprised if we blow 2nd again & fail to make it to the GF. Owners MUST invest in quality defenders

 

[Greasyrhys]

MUST earn 4 points from the last 2 games, wsw's big win puts pressure on

 

[Greasyrhys]

Again our cheapskate owners MUST forget about prioritising youth over recruiting decent defenders. We ain’t winning squat with the way things are going

 

[Greasyrhys]

Again our defence f***s up, goodbye 2nd spot

 

[Punchy Bassett]

Love watching us choke again

 

[Greasyrhys]

Whoever finishes 6th will put us out of our misery next week. For us to have been involved in 13 A League finals campaigns but only win ONE championship (plus just ONE GF appearance in the last 14 years) just shows how pathetic our clubs (& our states) mentality is.

 

[Punchy Bassett]

And WSW lost so all we needed to do was draw FFS

 

[Greasyrhys]

At this stage we'll be hosting the 'nix on Friday

Since 2010 this will be our 10th finals campaign (13th overall in the A-League), yet we've only made it to the GF once (in the double-winning season) Just shows how much the club has underachieved regardless of other teams having more money and resources.

 

[Munga]

 

[Greasyrhys]

He's too young to be leaving at the end of our campaign, plus only averages about 20 minutes off the bench.

 

[apollo_creed]

Another career ruined moving too early. Who is advising these players? Oh that’s right.. the agents who take a cut when they do move..

 

[Greasyrhys]

Defence MUST stand up tonight or it’s goodnight

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

When will we learn?

 

[Greasyrhys]

Great to bounce back and a clean sheet at last. We looked better defensively with Ansell.

 

[Greasyrhys]

Must defy history if we are to go one better than 3 of the last 4 seasons. In four 2-leg playoffs in A-League finals, we have never got the better on aggregate, losing 4-3 to the smurfs (season 05/06), 2-1 (06/07) & 6-0 (08/09) to victory, then 2-1 last season for a combined 3 draws & 5 losses. Apart from the 1st season (when we requested to play at home in the 1st leg after winning the plate), we have also never hosted a 2nd leg.

 

[Greasyrhys]

MUST win tonight, any other result won’t be good enough.

 

[apollo_creed]

D’arrigo is still so, so s**t on the ball..

 

[Greasyrhys]

Very disappointed, there is NO way we are going to turn things around in the return leg.

Typical AUFC, always finding ways to mess things up in the season and finals

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Do away goals count?

 

[Greasyrhys]

Do away goals count?

No

 

[WetCrow1991]

Halloran is the worst starter in the league.
