Tight for 6th. Even Wanderers are in with a shot if they go on a run of wins. If.

No games to hit over 10k crowds this round except maybe Adelaide but doubtful.

Bulls 1 v 3 Jets Crowd 2k
Roar 0 v 2 SFC Crowd 2k
AUFC 2 v 2 AFC Crowd 9k
CCM 2 v 1 Glory Crowd 1k
City 3 v 2 WSW Crowd 3k
Vuck 1 v 2 Nix Crowd 6k

WhatAmIWatching · Mar 30, 2026

Out of curiosity, which under-23 players for each team would you take the time to watch the game?
For me:
Jets: Dobson & Ely (Taylor is too old but worth watching)
Bulls: 0
Auckland: JGR
MVC: Valadon
AU: Fustrating
SFC: 0
CCM: 0
WP: 0
MC: Memeti, Wong
BR: 0
PG: 0
WSW: 0

No games to hit over 10k except maybe Adelaide. Then predicts 9k. You're a comedic genius mate one of the best piss takers of all time

I really like when Bertoncello comes on for the jetties. Still raw but he’s got a bit of something about him. Has big shoes to fill when he does come on, as it’s normally for Eli or Taylor. 5 goals and that ripper of an assist last week. Local boy, love him

After everyone's played each other home and away they play four of the teams for a third time to make up the remaining matchdays.

Can they pick which teams or is it based on what the gamblers want to see?

Very often.

Paul Okon Jr? Tiago Quintal? Akol Akon?

The league picks the extra matchups based on rivalries so Melbourne Victory would have three Melbourne derbies and three Big Blues as opposed to just the two, for example.

What do you mean? Aren't ALL the teams rivals with each other?

All the teams are rivals with each other in terms of wanting to make the six and avoid the spoon but the APL prioritises the marquee fixtures like local derbies when deciding which teams everyone plays more than twice.

No? In what league is that the case anywhere around the world?

In EVERY SINGLE league in the known universe (apart from the franchise ones which I don't know much about) every team competes for points against e very other team in their league.. Points are accumulated by playing ALL rivals fairly and evenly..... why I asked what Aleagues do as it sounds strange to me.
