HAL 2009-10 :: Semi Final - Match B: Gold Coast 5 Newcastle 6 @ Skilled ON PENALTIES

[Jobdog]

For all discussion on Gold Coast and the Jets from Skilled Park. The winner plays the winner of Wellington-Perth, the loser says farewell for 2010.

It's a bit of a cripple fight here. I just don't have any faith in our ability to see off anybody right now, let along a side containing Jason Culina, an in form Zenon Caravella, and Shane Smeltz. It's gonna get uuuuggggly.

Worst possible match up for first week of finals IMO.

I would have preferred Melbourne or Sydney.

But in saying that Gold Coast are no more consistent than we are, just gotta hope the sh*t side of them turns up. Somewhat unlikely for a first finals game though.

 

[Misanthrope]

You wanted us to play Sydney? They'd tear us up in our current form.

 

[roboshark]

Only plus I can see is that there will be a small crowd and the GC have lost a few in a row as well. If we can field a full side I will be surprised. Out of all the sides I am happiest with the gc

 

[Misanthrope]

Ditto to that. We can't beat Perth, Wellington are in hot form, and we're not even in the same league as Melbourne or Sydney this year.

 

[Dutchy]

Gonna say GC by 1 in OT.

 

[Misanthrope]

I say Gold Coast 3-0

3 weeks ago everything was rosy.....we are now paying for not paying

 

[Russell Crowe's Band]

Gcu 4-2

 

[roboshark]

RCB....that will be more like 4 in the first half and 2 in the second half....for a total of 6

 

[Jobdog]

I'm going to stick solid and say the boys will pull a rabbit out of the hat.

Cmon boys!!!

 

[Timmah]

They may very well pull a rabbit from a hat but they won't win the football game...

rock solid eh?

 

[shiznit]

i reckon these one off games are tougher to pick than you think...

i think you newie fans are a bit harsh on yourselves.... you guys have as good a chance as anyone else...

if you score a goal early you can park the bus and frustrate them... there last 2 games they have been frustrated out of it...

0 - 1 to Newie... and a trip over to Perth next week...

 

[Jobdog]

Matthew f**king Breeze is the ref. Any chance we had has just dissipated

 

[Knightmare]

The true kiss of death is not if Breeze is the ref, but if Sarah Ho is one of the lineswomen. Then you are really stuffed.

 

[roboshark]

Breeze hates us. He is a jerk off of the highest order. What price a pen against us
