*****All squads are from the link posted in the Newcastle v Central Coast post*****

 

[Knightmare]

FFS, with Breeze as ref it'll be 3-0 to the Scum, all penalties. F**K. :evil:

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

come on the roar!

dead set. its the worst name in australian sport.

Go roar......

but yes. score a few goals againsg the kiwis

 

[fish eel]

Melbourne to beat Sydney and there to be a disappointing crowd.

Heaps of players out of that match, especially from Sydney

 

[NK Arsenal]

FFS, with Breeze as ref it'll be 3-0 to the Scum, all penalties. F**K. :evil:

I thought Shield was the one that did that crap :roll:

 

[Knightmare]

Shield is pretty average, but Breeze has a longer track record regarding Jets games. No surprise Newcastle's goal came courtesy of a penalty.

And RCB, my understanding was that Qld knew one day there'd be more teams in the state so their name would revert to Brisbane, and they couldn't call themselves the same name as the AFL side so they went with 'Roar'. Personally I reckon they should've gone with 'Pride'.
