So where does it say which seat you have or can you sit anywhere in the row?

I would have thought that if you have a whole row you sit anywhere you ******* like, but just not in front of or behind someone. Mate, it ain't that hard to work out, hence why you have a row to yourself.

We're now looking at an absolute minimum of 2 wins and a draw from our last 4 to make the finals and that still requires a lot of results to go our way. Our maximum points tally is now 39 points. To make the 6 we'd need Adelaide to only win max one of their last 2 games, for Perth to lose at least one of their last 3 and WU to not win 3 out of their last 5. Newcastle are done barring a massive change in their goal difference while winning both of their last two games.

This site has a table calculator/similar here if you want to work out the chances of the boys getting a chance of a finals spot. (even though it seems Mack has done it)

I've narrowed our chances down to two, Buckleys and none. Who needs a calculator. 

It’s eetswa big win coming tonight 

What is the PAX?

Mine's in the 190's.

Going to be a banger.

As of Thursday last week members had redeemed about 2500 tickets. Maximum allowed is about 6500. Considering I redeemed one yesterday in the same bay as someone else got last Wednesday I wouldn't expect many more than the 2500. And maybe less as I'm sure some redeemed tickets won't be used.

Tonight's game well covered in the Telegraph,  not a word. Welcome to competing with other sports during winter.

I don’t think winter has anything to do with it

The only time news Ltd will mention us if a flare goes off

Does anybody know what the rules will be around masks? Does anyone know if there have been any worn at NRL games recently? I have been sewing reusable masks for charity and I've got my own handmade ones that Balks and I would like to wear out of courtesy for others tomorrow.

Obviously there is no mandate in NSW and the masks are not necessarily being worn to protect ourselves but given there is some increased community transmission, I think I'd rather err on the side of caution and wear one. However, we could go without them and I don't want to get unnecessarily hassled by people (cough*security*cough) that may get the wrong idea about why we are wearing them. 

We'll (me + 2 kids) will be wearing masks into and out of the stadium, as well as in common areas. At our seats, im sure we'll be distanced enough to not need them, depending on how close people are around us.

If you google A-league the only news about the A-league is from the A-league website itself and if you have seen the recent Kayo ads on facebook not a mention of the A-league. A-league has now lost total support of the mainstream this also coincides with closing of the regional newspapers, cuts to journos and Foxsports preparing to cut A-league by next year.

I think (correct me if I am wrong) the only active journos in the main stream media left are Vince Rugari, Michael Lynch and Dave Bossi all work for Fairfax. Thats 3 football journos covering an entire league and the sport in general against the crooks of AFL and League who are on the mainstream non stop. Seriously sick of the AFL ads when all I want to watch is the Simpsons on Flix. This the new post COVID world for the A-league.

Wanderers are doing ok on the social advertising but you only reach so many when people...

Stay loyal, stay strong.

This fight is generational. Maybe my grandkids will see more impartial coverage as the traditional media platforms evolve. I'm hoping that in the long run our grassroots support numbers crystalise into non-fickled fans of both the world and local game (even if it takes multiple clubs to replicate what shitney did with del piero)

Lineup: Prendergast, Georgievski, Juman, McGowan, Ziegler, Russell, Baccus, O'Doherty, Cox, Muller, Duke.

Subs: Kamau, Tass, Schewegler, Sullivan, Yeboah, Adam, Suman.

Alireza Faghani is the referee

how was Prendergast in our last match? tbh i missed it and its not repeated because of how much foxtel cares about the a league

He was okay.

Nice to have the music at reasonable level.

FMD...Cox gets smashed in the legs......nothing given.

It was absolutely terrible, missed the ball by a mile and collected him in the shins studs up. Not even a foul.

Ouch poor Muller

He's dyed his hair red.

He was NEVER going for that ball !!!!

Turns out it isn't Alireza. Got that ginger ****wit. He just let a single Nix player get away with four fouls in the space of a few minutes then immediately booked O'Doherty for one foul.

Now Muller gets knocked out by Fenton who was massively late and smashes him in the head.

I can't believe that wasn't given a straight red.

**** me dead, how is that **** allowed to go on

Hopefully Jurman can get a clean shot on that **** **** before the game ends

Was more of a head clash that was late, if he hit him with arms up eyes of the ball then red and more if an accident. 

It was very late and as it was so late, it was clearly excessive force. Red. Or a second yellow after getting away with the studs up lunge on Cox earlier.

Was clearly late var probably may gave red but i didn't think he was deliberately trying to make contact
