OOOOOOOOOOH, FOUR MATCHES, FOUR MATCHES, FOUR MATCHES........ FOUR MATCHES, HE ONLY PLAYED FOUR MATCHES!!

this break feels longer than an off season. Is Harry still playing.

So much this.

So excited for Sunday!!

The ultimate proverbial 'six pointer'

Mooy own goal...

Can we please have the black shorts for this weekend? We would have to wear the red and black shirts to avoid a clash, and I'm starting to fall in with the superstition brigade - black shorts are a must!

I'm not superstitious but like Crash says: "If you believe you're playing well because you're getting laid, or because you're not getting laid, or because you wear women's underwear, then you *are*! "

If it takes Black shorts then so be it, right now if I thought Santa had to dress as a Haitian witch doctor to get rid of the bad juju...then I'd be telling him to go out and buy a drum and some chicken bones asap   

Why are Tomi & Spira out of our squad due to International Duty, but Nathan Burns is in for Wellington as he "returns from international duty"?

Also, KGJ refereeing this match. Euugghhh.

I guess they don't think Burns will get any game time.

Burns having an extra day to be right would be my guess, plus he hasn't exactly been overrun with playing time in the Asian Cup.

I hope we see a team like this:

                             Santa

Ruka                    Bridge                 Romeo

              Poljak                  ILR

Golec/Gallaway  NTS  Hamill            Cole

                             Covic

With Tomi and Spira to return the next game.

^^^ With Takahagi hopefully getting a few minutes off the bench.

Is Taka HAL approved or he is only on an ACL contract?

He is HAL approved as of today, replacing Saba. Check out the 'Takahagi sings with Wanderers thread', the last few posts show the update.

Thanks nmh, then I completely agree with him coming off the bench.

Hopefully he can bring at least half as much professionalism, work ethic and Japanese flair to the side as Shinji did. If he does that, then we're already ahead of Saba's contribution.

Also, does anyone know about Castelen's injury situation?

I've maintained from the start that we just needed our full squad together for us to start stringing some wins together. When Juric and Spira come back, we will probably have our best team on the field since the ACL Final.

I'm hoping takahagi starts.

Been too bloody long a wait! 
Who else is heading down?

Also heading down Chappy. Four of us have had our hotel and flights booked for some time. Anyone know where we meet pre-match?

I'm hoping takahagi starts.

Tagahagivic should be a starter now he is officially on the A League squad.

'Tagahagi sings'????? Is this a new chant I'm unaware of?

So cut that I can't make it due to work ):

It should be a good game

Make sure you point and laugh at the Green Seat Elite.

Can we win this match - sure

Will we win it - probably not with the squad still not 100%

Kennedy won't be playing against WSW he is injured

Last thing he needed was another injury setback, not like we are going to not play against him with us playing heart 3x over the next 2.5 months!

Hope Takahagi starts. Hes come off a full season with a little break, been training with the team for a couple weeks with some game time. We dont need to be so cautious. See Sydney debut 2 new players. We gave Kalmar a Debut immediately. So start him *****! Bridge off the bench...

Will we finally get a star above our badge for this match?
