    Note 3: Vedran Janjetovic spilled the ball into his own net after a shanked clearance fired it high into the air.
    Note 4: This match received the highest ratings for a regular season A-League fixture on Foxtel, with 175,000 viewers.
    Note 5: The crowd of 41,213 was a record Sydney FC crowd for a regular season fixture and their 2nd highest ever after the 2005/2006 Grand Final. It is the 13th highest crowd of all A-League matches and 4th highest excluding Finals series matches.
    Note 6: Milestones reached in this match include Ante Covic (70 all competition appearances), Mark Bridge (55 A-League appearances & 20 all competition goals), Kwabena Appiah (25 A-League appearances).

Don't think Tomi will be risked. Saba to start with Castelan (especially as he is not available for the ACL). Also think NTS will play from the start. Defenders don't do as much running as more forward players. Ruki will be on the bench but Popa will be loathe to use him and if we are leading I think he'll stay there, only coming on if we need to chase the game. We will have Santa up front on his own with flank support from Haliti and Castelan.


I'll be in Alexandria at lunch time. Which pub will Wanderers fans be meeting at near the stadium? What time approx will the march depart Belmore Park? 

 

March will leave Belmore Park at 6pm. Drinks at The Collector from 1pm.

there's no official pub for WSW fans in the city. Its easier for everyone to congregate in Parra, take over CityFail and then march from Belmore Park.

not a bad squad when it's difficult to omit two from who's available, AND there is Spira and Ruka unavailable.

You never know........................ this might be the day he proves us all wrong...................... maybe.........................

Ruka is "awaiting ITC" but assuming that is sorted in the next 48 hours, I think he could be a shot at the bench - Ruka, Castelen, Trifiro, Fofanah, Bouzanis

 

Omitted: Tomi (risk of re-injury) & Appiah (liability)

 

Strange that Adeleke isn't listed at all..?

However, wouldn't be the first time they have screwed up the ins and outs lol

Should have known there would have been more, not sure if this is the stadium members who are returning or they were just waiting to be released in the lead up to the derby!

Few interesting ones or reading between the lines:

- Spira is two weeks, does that mean he is out for first leg of ACL final?

- Ruka still waiting for ITC, will this come in time for Sydney derby? If not he is out

- If Juric still needed two weeks (as of last week) why is he included on the team sheet? Could he get 30 mins off the bench?

- I assume that Adeleke is not in the squad, but we knew that it was always going to 3-4 weeks before he would get a run

Those thinking that Romeo or Saba will start, tell them they are dreaming!

That's exactly what it is. It was mentioned earlier in the week from ESFC that this would happen.

We will be set up very conservatively. Hope to get to the break 0-0 and knick one 2nd half. Santa on his own ploughing a lone furrow. Midfield of La Rocca and Matteo centrally, Bridge, Kubi and Labinot the only ones pushing forward to support Santa but main job being to track back.

 

Hope I'm wrong, love to see a start with Romeo and Saba (and Tomi) but it's not what we're used to right?

That's a very Popa way of thinking, the fans optimism will always be thinking along the lines of the bottom sentence!
