Paul01 Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 Arnie only subbed Zullo because of injury so his best XI played the full game. Could Redmayne have a howler like he did last night? Their backline may end up looking like Calver..... Buijs.... Wilkinson.... Retre Will he play Brillante and O'Neill? Will Arnie rest any of Adrian, Ninkovic, Brosque or Bobo with Ferriera, Carney and Simon kept at home? Link to comment
Zelinsky Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 The last time we played a tired Arnie-coached ACL team was the S1 game in the rain in Gosford. GunnerWanderer 1 Link to comment

Zelinsky Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 It appears a Union match is going to be played on Saturday evening, the pitch might resemble a vegetable garden just in time for the derby. Link to comment
Erebus Posted February 21, 2018 Share Posted February 21, 2018 No way in hell do all 4 of Brosque, Adrian, Bobo and Ninkovic start on Sunday. They all played 90 minutes in a fast game intense game. Simon will start. lol But the excuses are there and ready for Arnie if he doesn't get a positive result. But #AleagueRefs the equaliser. And waiting for the "well they have something to celebrate this year, but we'll win trophies" line from Brosque like last year. Yet when they win, they rub it in. Such hypocrites.

Arnie will have an excuse if he loses but if we lose where does that leave us ? 4 days break for the smurfs is more than enough expect them at full strength well rested with business class flights up against one of the worst defences in the a-league . We are going to have to score 4 to win , shades of the 4-3 at parra after we flew back from an ACL away game . Zelinsky 1 Link to comment

After what I've witnessed in Allianz since Arnie has taken over it will take more than tired Smurfs legs to win there - the red card for Saba in S3, the Sotirio goal not given in S4, Zullo's hand ball in S5, Gillet's masterpiece in October.

Paul01 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Well we didn't get Griffiths-Jones, Gillett, Beath or Barreiro as the ref. We get Peter Green again but Griffiths-Jones as VAR. We also get Goldrick as one of the assistants. Wonder what Gazmon would make of that team? wendybr 1 Link to comment
Paul01 Posted February 22, 2018 Share Posted February 22, 2018 Arnie has still name Zullo in the squad. Must have been Moss who submitted the squad list. There have be changes Smurf back 7 could be ......................Redmayne Retre.......Buijs.....Wilkinson......Carney ..............Brillante........O'Neill Bridge on Retre and Ikonomidis on Carney. Perhaps we will see Cejudo against Brillante and Carrusca on O'Neill. Brillante is on 4 yellows and Arnie won'twant him to be suspended against the Jets in the following round. Link to comment

Yeah, fortress allright... well yeah, that's why I said #AleagueRefs are the equaliser We are all expecting a dodgy call to go their way and shift the game's momentum. It happened in Rd3 with Carney's non penalty. Then Foxe decided to not use his bench and we died in the arse in the 60th. That game was ours to lose and we almost did. I still blame Foxe more than partially for that result. WSW27 and mack 2 Link to comment
