What a life.

He was on top of the world at Matilda's

Jets vs Nix today in the men's at 7:35pm, Roar vs Canberra in the women's at 7:00pm. Which should be the better game? Camping so can't really do split screen.

 

[Jetsfan]

Watched the Jets v Adelaide womens game the other night, first time for a while, it was like having your teeth slowly pulled out by a boilermaker

You mean cause you bottled it? I felt the same when we played you and did the same thing.

A League women's is close to unwatchable most of the time. I'd recommend Jets v Nix.

Most on here struggle to watch the women's game at aleague levels.

Despite it being more team based passing football and less general athletic competition, the lower average physical skill levels and slower speeds across the pitch have many thinking "run faster and stop passing to the opposition - I could do that better". It makes for frustrating viewing when you want to be watching premium level sport on your screen.

Jets and Nix both have some very fine, in form attacking options. Regardless of your views on the women's league I think the Jets v Nix would be the better spectacle if you don't have an actual team to back in either game.

Alright here goes. Should be a good round.

Jets 0 Nix 1 crowd 8k - Jets will bottle this I can see it from a mile off

Auckland 2 CCM 1 crowd 13k - CCM to play okay but Auckland too good

Roar 2 Adelaide 1 crowd 9k - O’Shea and Daggers in and Roar continue on. expecting a good afternoon

Bulls 1 City 1 crowd 5k - surely Bulls pull an okay crowd? Nice weather, long weekend. People will be out and about. Even game

WSW 1 Perth 2 crowd 5k - Perth to get it done, not really expecting immediate improvement from WSW and Perth will want to bounce back

Victory 1 Sydney FC 2 crowd 14k - I’m expecting a really good game. SFC to win it late

I think the Big Blue crowd will be bigger than that. Didn't they say they sold 15,000 tickets already?

 

[HonestSpursFan]

The Jets would be first (for now) theoretically if they were to destroy the Nix. If they hold on to any win they’ll be at least second (again, for now).

PS somehow couldn't find this but I accidentally ignored Someguyjc.

 

[Roar92_]

Guess I was wrong about the Jets. Happy for them and happy for Newy in general. They deserve a good football team.

I’d definitely take more, it’s just usually in instances like this the actual crowds ends up being a little lower than anticipated.

 

[tsf]

Fantastic newcastle, awesome to see

 

[CentreHalf]

Not that they would sell them all, especially in one off season, but i'd imagine the Jets would get decent fees for quite a few of their players.

Adams
Dobson
Rose (If Asia rumours correct)
Natta
Badolato (Needs another season at least in A-league after the injury)

 

[melbcityguy]

Jets just need to lock up the defense. If I'm mm I'm still mad about conceding

 

[WhatAmIWatching]

great game to watch and that would have to have been Delianovs best game. The WP keeper looked about 15 and the sub looked about 12.
Often the gaffer gets the chop for the teams poor performances but rarely do they get the applaud that they should. Milligan has transformed the NJ in a way I did not think possible.

Taylor?

 

[AUFC_Fan]

Taylor?

He’s out of contract so they’ll lose him for nothing.
