The Melbourne City Thread

Back to the AAMI Park fortress tonight (10 wins 3 draws).

Wish I was there tonight to watch, but stuck at home with covid.....

Let's hope for a big game from Mclaren, if Jmac is busy it usually results in good things.

I like the team.

The knock on the team last week was the midfield battle without O'Neill, and a few chances created in right spaces. Get that sorted and we're good to go

 

[pantskyle]

Well that's a blatant red. Poor tackle.

 

[AJ_2000]

No arguments once the replay was seen. Shocker and deserved the straight red

 

[pantskyle]

No incentive now for Sydney to attack. They'll play for penalties.

 

[pantskyle]

Get in.

 

[pantskyle]

Good times.

4 GF in a row!!! Didn't realise it was a 2 week break in-between the semis and the GF .

I think Rado nailed the selection and the formation. Should keep that for the GF too.

Loved the combo with Tilio Bos and Leckie drifting over to overload the defenders on our left side.

 

[pantskyle]

Break is stupid. But expected from this amateur league.

Brilliant AON, Tilio, Glover,

Glover didn't really have anything to do.

Glover didn't really have anything to do.

Clean sheet, final, he's going to be hard to replace next season

It's Jamie Young isn't it?

It's Jamie Young isn't it?

According to News Ltd reports on Friday it is

 

[Greasyrhys]

History is well and truly on city's side. The last 4 teams (sydney fc 2015, perth 2019, sfc 2021 and city 2022) to beat the Reds in the semis have gone on to lose the GF, I actually hope this trend continues

 

[AJ_2000]

It's Jamie Young isn't it?

He was pretty much the reason why WU were champions with his high calibre saves

 

[AJ_2000]

Brilliant AON, Tilio, Glover,

All probably leaving too .

Going to be a fair amount of turnover at the end of the season. But that a problem for after the GF.

 

[AJ_2000]

If you're looking for a way to pass some time over the next 2 weeks, here's a few options.

All Access (first leg semi) - plus stacks in the back catalogue


A League podcast, it's quality. I got on to it during the WC. They've done a post game of both semi finals.

Tickets confirmed.

 

[AJ_2000]

Thanks Jamo

A huge reason behind our cultural change that helped us take the next step and win silverware.

He's not going anywhere and formally joining coaching staff

 

[MrPremiership]

Has been great for the club and it's fantastic that he's joining the coaching ranks

 

[ColinMochrie]

Geez it's not looking good. Thank god for Glover and that goal to keep us in it.

We're right in this one. Plenty of time with the ball in the final 3rd and we have the talent to take advantage.

Just at need the back 3 and O'Neill need to get their act together and kill these through balls.

 

[Bont2Bruce]

I don't expect anyone at the club to be mates with Glover once he's out the door. Mouths off at the rest of the team at every opportunity, often when he stuffed up. Just not a team player.

 

[pantskyle]

We are not a good GF team.
