[Russell Crowe's Band]

holy crap that was a great goal by Ono.

Grand Final confirmed as Allianz Stadium, Sunday 21 April.

Timmah, realistic prediction of the CCM contigent if you guys make it? 10k?

There's at least 20-25k WSW fans, throw in another 5-10k bandwagoners/neutrals and we should be pushing 40k.

Is that the SFS? The coverage tonight confirmed 4pm next Sunday at the SFS

Cracker of a goal from Ono. Brisbane looked rudderless once Broich limped off.

 

[Timmah]

Allianz = SFS.

Sam - we probably had 10-12k-odd of the 2008 GF crowd, so I'd expect somewhere around 10k.

Hopefully there's a bit of buzz around for it.

 

[Mong]

Good on the WSW, too good last night.

I don't care either way now, but I'd be happy to see them win the GF next week now.

 

[Ridders]

Awesome night. Crowd had a much better vibe to it compared to the Derby. Great goals from Ono and DINOO.

Credit to the Roar, they really lifted after half-time and were unlucky not to get a goal for their possession.

So bummed about Hersei. Arguably our most valuable player. We're really going to miss him in the GF.

 

[Misanthrope]

Reckon the Victory or the Mariners could get more away supporters if they make the GF.

 

[Timmah]

Reading this morning, apparently Hersi wants revenge because Arnold dared suggest CCM were the better side in the Bluetongue game a few weeks back.

Pity 1. He's in the grandstand and 2. most football analysts agreed - but we all know WSW rode their luck, got the break and CCM paid for not converting chances.

 

[Misanthrope]

Less than 11,000 for a home semi final. Pathetic.

 

[Ridders]

Mariners have been good. Really nice goal from McBreen. Crowd was a bit of a let down. Is it because it's on a Sunday night?

Nah. It'd have more to do with the fact it's being played on the Central Coast.

 

[Ridders]

Mariners win 1-0 and into the Final.

 

[Knightmare]

To be fair, the Victory only got 22,000 to their home final last week, on a Friday night in the city...

Directly up against a VFL match that draw 55k though. Mariners don't have that level of competition.

 

[Ridders]

RBB are going to be in the Cove end. Dis gun be good.

I hear there was a mad game of darts at the local pub

:lol:

So Mariners can't blame a Sunday evening kickoff (as opposed to a much more feesible and popular 7:30 saturday night kickoff) for their attendance but if it's any other club (from an area with over double the Coasts' population) then any excuse will do?

 

[Big Sam]

What's your point? The match was always going to be on a Sunday because the Mariners played midweek in China.

Anyway, be it Friday or Saturday night, they'd have drawn the same.

 

[Haffa]

Drove down from Brisbane to see us make GF number 4, long drive back tomorrow will be worth it. If we play like that next week we are every chance of pulling it off. Can't wait till next week. Come on you yellow!!

:lol: at the haters.
