My brother in Hellas, its league "table" .. ladder is what you stand on to change a lightbulb :ROFLMAO: :ROFLMAO:

Is "ladder" a uniquely Australian/NZ term in the context of sport? We use it interchangeably with "table".

It makes sense though. Teams go up and down it like a ladder, but it's formatted as a table with columns and rows.

I think we are top 2 for sure but our rubbish keeper makes us vulnerable.

South Melbourne are definitely capable of being a top two team given their calibre compared to most of the comp but to be fair the third-string keeper has been starting between the sticks for most matchdays.

And it IS certainly different football than what our guys are used to.. Opposition is very fast and very physical , the pitches are very very sticky, the ball barely moves and the humidity isnt typical of a Melbourne winter ....

If nothing else, it is totally worthwhile to participate just for these factor alone the team will gain great insight into challenging scenarios... can only make us stronger.

Really good opportunity to be scouting for opportunities post OFC from these teams... bound to be some players that will become available come transfer window.. outaode the NPL have to keep half an eye on the championship defence as everyone this time around will be in it to win it!

THATS what this tournament is about for us.. Sure the 450K will be great for our coffers but its a brand awareness excersise for us...

An Argentinean leading some beautiful local Papua New Guinean kids in chanting Hellas Hellas for an Australian football club ....... Brings tears to the eyes and possibly apoplexy to people like Michael Hill and Vince Rugari who dont believe it is possible... I love this game.

 
It makes us look useful to Football Australia in our ability to bring in and connect OFC and FIFA officials, as well as a number of Victorian Government officials. We can help open doors for Football Australia.
