StringerBellend Posted Monday at 11:50 PM Posted Monday at 11:50 PM Surely we want to go to the ACL The ACL 2 is a totally Mickey Mouse league.

Would rather be in ACL 2 because it is actually winnable for ALM teams Ah right. Interesting that the only path to ACL 2 is the Aus cup. Edited Tuesday at 12:33 AM by PedroPony

Sithslayer1991 Posted Tuesday at 01:17 AM Posted Tuesday at 01:17 AM 31 minutes ago, Kotallo said: Presents a very interesting picture if an NPL team ever managed to win it Its probably why FFA chose that as THE cup to qualify from and why AFC saw that as the bigger cup over the toilet seat. I would like to know how the revenue margins work with ACLE. PFA along with other Asian unions did mention even with the old setup it didn't help clubs break even and the same was said with the new setup that it still didn't adequately address the funding issues. I don't know if this holds true with the jump in prize money from both comps? No ones ever done an in depth breakdown as to how it works for the clubs. There were rumours for Draws and Victories in ACLE you get extra bonuses $100,000 for a win and $20,000 for a draw. But I can't find anywhere on AFC sites that this is correct.

They came up against Melbourne City. I can't remember the result. They were a no frills team high in grit and determination. You could easily see the drop in quality compared to the typical J League 1 side that qualifies for the CL.

Unlimited Posted 5 hours ago Posted 5 hours ago Bookies have City, WU (why??), and WSW as favourites for the games so that would mean the following week 1 elimination finals: WSW v Victory, and then WU v Adelaide. Is it too early to start thinking about where to eat next week?

Is it too early to start thinking about where to eat next week? City favourites makes sense. Smurfs played them only a month ago and City were very aggressive all game it was just the individual talent of Segicic and Costa keeping them in the game. With so many outs Lolley, Klimala and Alex Grant and over reliance on the individual talent its hard to see Smurfs winning but a draw is possible, City could have an off day in front of goal like against Adelaide. I have no idea why WU is favourite against Auckland. The last game was at Tarneit and Auckland won, Auckland will also not rest players because of the bye at best I do see a draw, but I can see Auckland regaining the groove to win here. Then us. Look if Victory could beat the Cows there is no reason to think we can't do the same. And we should be winning, home finals are on the line, otherwise its a trip to Melbourne away. Melbourne historically hasn't been great from our club aside from this season with Staj. I would be more confident at home StringerBellend 1

SBW Posted 2 hours ago Posted 2 hours ago (edited) I think Smurfs are very determined to win that game against City to get that 6th place, and depending how other results go, we might face them again at home in the knockout qtr finals if we finish 3rd and they finish 6th Edited 2 hours ago by SBW sonar 1
