They have many other players to shut down. Craig Noone tore us apart in the FFA Cup.

No J Mac would be beneficial to us

J Mac scores from good service. Eliminate the good service he gets and he won't be as effective.

Given we've had a bye, most results last round were in our favour. Fittest the squad has been with nearly all returning from injury. The stage is set for us to put our mark on the comp. Do we play like a top 4 team?

Our season starts here...

I hope the manager has worked on our midfield and forwards. We have an ok defence just need the attack to click. Contrary to what some say I think the bye would of been beneficial to us. Players back from injury. Our new imports get more training with the squad. Some niggles given a chance to heal....etc.

The starting line-up will be interesting.

I hope we get the Iranian ref.

What time does the Women start?

With all the top players available and a week's rest, I'm expecting (hoping) for a much better performance from our last home game. Full squad, temp in the low 20's, no excuses, it's time to shine.

Thanks Mac. For those that can make it at that time, it would be great to get behind them.

I've heard the boys have been working very hard to get where they want to be. Hopefully this translates onto the field.

Given the squad we have, it couldn't be any worse than the last 2 games...

That FFA Cup game we were missing senior players, Pirmin wasn't playing, Duke was out injured, players playing out of position and half our team were youth players

City will be looking to bounce back after the 4-3 debacle on Sunday

and we're still shaky

Sure I understand that. i'm worried if we go back to a back 3 (which I assume we will) that Mcgowan is going to go back to what he was like before which was pretty woeful. At least this time he will most likely have Jurman and Ziegler with him. Let Georgevski back on the left and Kamau on the right and the defense looks pretty good. Can anyone provide any more information on what has happened in training over the last week.

His first touch travels further than most peoples clearances 

How are our European players coping with training in this sort of weather - does anyone know??

Training,  or even worse, playing a game in these conditions will knock them for 6....surely?

They'll acclimatise.I would guess that the sport science & conditioning people at WSW would have it under control and with game starts being around 7.30pm...they'll cope for the most part.....a lot cooler at that time,

Kwame Yeboah's first touch vs City went further than most goal kicks

I expect some game time for Kamau against City.

Not sure about this season, but some of those Perth and Adelaide games are generally earlier, I think, and with the heat they get, those will be the test.

Hopefully you're right.

Don't know if much of the younger generation would remember him or that song but then again, he did spend a lot of time stalking them.

Kwame is watching the wrong match tapes.. he'd learn more from these players.
