Nnnnnathan12 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Does anyone know how to set up a Kickstarter campaign? Maybe we can crowd fund the Ante Covic statue From my extensive 2 seconds of google searching a life size bronze statue costs about 40 grand. Club just won 1.5 mill and will sell tens of thousands of Champion strips. They can afford it. Bronze? We didn't come third... we won the thing! Solid 24-carat gold or nothing With a truckload of sparkling Ruby's and black diamonds Kizza and Prydzopolis 2 Link to comment

teddies Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 That save. Watching it at the live site, i swear the ball rolled for an eternity. Super slow mo. It was just like watching Jurics shot on goal trickle towards the goal and hit the post in the first leg.... but twice as long. Prydzopolis 1 Link to comment
GunnerWanderer Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 If postecoglou doesn't start covic in the asian cup then he deserves the sack Ange didn't want him at MVFC so will be interesting to see what happens from here. His form is so compelling it's almost impossible for him not to be part of a squad with 3 keepers. Prydzopolis 1 Link to comment

Nnnnnathan12 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Keep Matt Ryan and the Mitch Langerak, but Covic has to be third choice ahead of Brad Jones, Adam Federichi and Eugene Galekovic Prydzopolis and theguyyouwishyouwere 2 Link to comment
wilsonpastore Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 (edited) if we are to srsly stand a chance of winning the asian cup covic must be first choice keeper. as much as i am keen for the socceroos to look to the future and give langerak, yes langerak and not ryan, more game time, covic is too good of form. spiranovic must be first choice centre back Edited November 2, 2014 by wilsonpastore Prydzopolis, Balkanite and theguyyouwishyouwere 3 Link to comment

If you even think about taking those clowns Ryan, Langerack, Jones or Galekovic to the AFC Cup you deserve to be bent over and used for a receptacle for the ACL trophy. Ante is the best Australian goalie without a ***** doubt! stavup, Balkanite, wendybr and 1 other 4 Link to comment
Nnnnnathan12 Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 If Covic is going to be picked in the Asian Cup, should he be picked in the upcoming friendly against Japan? I think that the squad picked for the Japan game on the 18th November will be the final squad for the Asian Cup, that means that he is going to be out for Perth Glory away and the Mariners at home Prydzopolis 1 Link to comment

AEK Posted November 2, 2014 Share Posted November 2, 2014 Clearly the boys heard about my half time team talk for my indoor team to come back from 2-0 down against a team who has players who even captained Australia to win 2-4, boys were motivated by that, points is..... I SHOULD ALSO HAVE A STATUE! this isnt the first time my half time team talk has turned the result around for us 102megan, Lookers and Prydzopolis 3 Link to comment

theguyyouwishyouwere Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 such love I have for the big man. must fill our players with confidence to have him in goals - and fill our opponents with fear. ante is lord. Link to comment
wsw2154 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 I made this graphic novel at work, I regret nothing: Covic's importantance in our team is on par with Schmeichel's to the manchester side of old. A strong goal keeper gives the team an extra edge at the back. Deserves the asian player of the year award for sure. Prydzopolis and DontCallMeJacko 2 Link to comment
theguest7 Posted November 4, 2014 Share Posted November 4, 2014 (edited) Last night I was standing next to this 79 year old Croatian man who was way too happy and couldn't stop telling me how excited he was about our team. He happened to knew Ante and Antony's fathers personally and kept waving at them as they were standing on the other side. Covic Sr on the other hand, you've never seen a prouder father in your life. The guy was beaming! Edited November 4, 2014 by theguest7 DontCallMeJacko, Prydzopolis and blurbel 3 Link to comment
