Hyundai A-League :: Finals Week Two

[Jobdog]

And then there were four.

 

[roboshark]

Roar and victory

 

[Mong]

That would be great.

I think the Victory, heart says roar but will wait for confirmed lineups to make an actual prediction.

 

[Big Sam]

WSW and MV.

Wanderers will get probably the biggest crowd at Parra for the last few years. Unlike the derbies which had some rows of empty seats behind the goals, there won't be any this time because all members have had to purchase tickets.

 

[Timmah]

CCM v Roar Grand Final.

 

[Mong]

Apparently Broich and Brattan are ok.

Roar v Victory GF..

 

[Ridders]

WSW and MV.

Wanderers will get probably the biggest crowd at Parra for the last few years. Unlike the derbies which had some rows of empty seats behind the goals, there won't be any this time because all members have had to purchase tickets.

Those empty seats, for the last derby, where because a lot of people bought tickets in the Southern end of the ground but made their into the Northern end. Northern end was packed way beyond capacity. Plenty of people had to resort to sitting on the grass hill behind the advertising boards. Hoping that it doesn't happen again this week.

Am worried about the Roar, seem to be hitting form at the right time of the season.

Will go with CCM and WSW.

 

[Haffa]

CCM v Roar Grand Final.

This. At Bluetongue.

 

[Timmah]

Hope so. We've f**king well earned it.

 

[Big Sam]

The GF will only be at Allianz or AAMI Park. It won't be at Bluetongue or Parramatta.

If it's WSW vs CCM then Allianz is the obvious choice, but you can't tell me if it's CCM vs BRI they'd be better to have it at Allianz and not Bluetongue. They probably won't get more than 20k to it anyway ...

Makes the league look weak to play the grand final at a pissant suburban ground like Bluetongue. It won't matter, as it'll be WSW v the Victory.

Wanderers 2-1
Victory 2-0

I'd argue a full stadium is better than one that's only half full though.

Not if a half full stadium is still twice the rinky dink full stadium.

 

[Big Sam]

We had this discussion last year before the Mariners choked and I'm pretty sure the FFA said it would still have been at Allianz even if they had played Brisbane or Perth.

Let's not forget the GF falls on RL's Rep weekend where there are no decent matches on in Sydney.

 

[Timmah]

The FFA has been notorious for not saying ANYTHING about a GF venue until the time actually comes to award hosting rights.

Bluetongue has not been ruled out.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

WHERE GOING TO THE GRAND FINAL!!!!!!!!!!! woooooooooooo

 

[Big Sam]

Well done WSW. GF at SFS on Sunday week.

 

[AusKnightRKO]

has the sfs been confirmed?

 

[Big Sam]

I think so. ANZ's out because of a concert and even against Victory, you'd get 10-15k more at Allianz than Parramatta.
