Strange decision for Perth as Reddy is a first choice keeper also

Polenz can coach us whenever he wants <3

A lot of the problems at the back last year were because of McGowan's slowness, or someone being dragged out of position covering for the LWB. That and defending at corners. We are probably still 1 quality CB short, but even still we've already improved by letting McGowan and Ziegler go. Traore ------------------------------- Russell ---------- Natta --- Tass --- Ziggy ---------- That's not horrible and also means plenty of spots further up the park to use for visa spots.

lol at people saying Jermain Defoe is too old and would be a disaster signing when he's sored 25 goals in 52 games over the last 2 years and just got another contract at Rangers. Defoe would murder the A League, whether it be this year, next year, or the season he turns 52.

Kamau is gone. Club obviously begged him to make it look like we're still trying to sign him to save face.

Makes sense our first off season signing is a left back.

If there was a position on the field that we probably didn't need any coverage, it's left back.

Would love to see them try a new formation that removes all our rubbish defenders. Something like........ Muller - Troisi - Cox - McDonald - Duke - Kamau Baccus - Dorrans Tass - Ziggy Margush

Bringing my 10 month old to his first WSW game Saturday Please score 4 in the first half as we probably won't last 90 minutes.

First half rubbish. Second half brilliant. We are going to get better and better as the season goes on and can do some damage in this comp.

I would love to see us go to 4 at the back and think with all the attacking options we have, it suits our squad the best, but that 5-3-2 formation is one thing I'm pretty sure Robbo is locked in on. We legitimately have cover in every single position. Our "B Team" is stronger than some of the teams we've trotted out over the last few years. A Team Cox Duke Muller Baccus Dorrans Aqualina Russell Tass - McGowan - Gordon Margush B Team Ibini Yeboah

Reckon it was more to do with fitness then wanting to take Cox and Mueller off at the same time.......

Sucks we lost, but definitely don’t think it was as bad as people in here think. Federici was unreal and the Bulls are going to be pretty solid this year, and they definitely didn’t outplay us. Good - Russell, Gordon, Tass, Baccus Meh - Margush, McGowan, Dorrans, Ibini, Troisi Bad - Georgevski, Cox As I said in the game thread, the formation just doesn’t work at all and whilst Cox should have done better on occasions for sure, 90% of the time he was getting the ball played into him with a 6’6 center back all over him. Using practically the same players, with Mueller in

We’ve also just gone to 4 at the back so maybe Aquafina is a natural RB and suits this system more

Tate was one of our best. Strange sub that’s for sure if he could have lasted the 90
