With all this talk about the Mariners game and the Sydney game, this Perth game has gotten very little attention. I'm sure popa will have the boys focused for this one.

BOM is predicting heavy rain and winds

 

does the wet weather favour anyone?

Rain, hail or shine, we sing for Wanderers.

We will need to be focused. Alistair Edwards got a massive turn around out of the team that beat the Mariners. Any team that just beat the Mariners needs to be taken very seriously. The Perth side was like Jekyll and Hyde from the weekend to the previous week. Cant slacken off. Need to keep pushing for 3 pts and hope the Mariners lose.

This, pretty much. I don't doubt that Popa is thinking the same thing, but we need to approach this game in the same way - as loud as possible.

CCM to lose and us to win. Fruit bowl here we come.

Toilet seat FTW

 

Not sure about the Fruit Platter/Bowl but the Toilet Seat is pretty heavy for what it is. Managed to hold it when I was a *cough* in the Cove *cough* and George Negus was wandering around with it for some strange reason... as much as I love old school trophies like the FA Cup, Stanley Cup and Champs League there is something unique that I love about our Toilet Seat. Any publicity is good publicity.

 

Anyway, my tip on this one. 2-0 WSW. Mooy to break his duck in the 75th and then Topor in the 89th.

This winning streak is bound to end at some point, it wouldn't be so bad to get it out of the way this weekend. it would service to remind the boys that although they have been doing well, some of the other teams have made it easier than it should have been. 

That being said, win or lose I will be singing.

If we can beat Melbourne Victory away then we should be going into every match expecting a win. Perth is a team we should beat at home.

It won't be an easy game but its one the Wanderers should win. Here's hoping Popovic has the boys ready for it.

I wouldn't be putting to much thought into Perth's win last week. For 1) It was at home, which for Perth is a massive difference to playing away and 2) It was Edwards first game and with the week they had it's not so much of a surprise they put in a performance like that.

 

Popa won't be worrying about Perth so much, he'll be worrying about our boys and will know that as long as we play to our game we should have no problems getting past Perth at home.

Perth should of been put away in the firs 30 minutes by mariners. They were very lucky in that period not to be 2 or 3 nil down.

 

They'll be massively pumped for this game though and they'll make it difficult. But no chance popa will let the boys get ahead of them selves and think of the mariners game coming up instead of focusing on this one

Win, lose or draw.....only thing the RBB should be focused on is shutting Alistair Edwards up and make sure he doesnt make comments that will embarras him again, i am pretty sure he did not watch the MV v Wanderers last weekend, hence his stupid comment...

He challenged the RBB...... we will accept! We gotta sing SO LOUD this week - make sure no-one ever doubts us agian!

 

I hope it rains. If it does we should crank the 'Thunderstruck/Wanderers' call and response chant idea lol!

Wish I was there to add to the volume but unfortunately I have a trial game at the same time. Can't believe it. First home game I am going to miss this season. Spewing. Hopefully Edwards and the Glory will be eating their words!
