Good call. Although, City has played their previous Aus Cup matches at Marden, which is the home of Adelaide Blue Eagles. But Service FM might be the place this time and it's just around the corner from their actual home ground.
South hobart is a shoe in for a permanent spot imo.. i couldnt think of a better buy in team from the periphery!Quick rundown of who's still in the running for spots (maximum points available in the right column). As NSW is sending a mid-table finisher to the Championshipanyone just outside the relegation zone there can still make qualify!

Can you see a smfc marconi adelaide city + 1 group... thats 11 NSL titles between them!!! Im salivating at thw possibility of away days at such an idea....
Can only dream, a South Melbourne Hellas visit would be a great occasion, can you imagine it on a warm Saturday night or Sunday afternoon at the Marconi club. You could easily be looking at Marconi’s biggest crowd since the nsl if marketed correctly and if fixtured at the right time with decent weather…but I’m fully mentally prepared for the group to be something along the lines of Marconi, Broadmeadow magic, Sutherland sharks, Bayswater city….and 11am Saturday morning kick offs
Correct that was where they beat the wanderers in that first ever “cupset” in the first year of the cup. Service fm didn’t exist then as far as I’m aware. Seems to be the place they play most of the state cup finals etc nowadays. The Adelaide city v Adelaide United cup game was there a few years back too
Any truth to the competition going home and away in 2027. That's what I've heard in the past from the powers at Sydney Olympic.
As long as we get at least one season in before the robots kill us all or the nuclear apocalypse I’m happy
In all seriousness, who knows how true, all based on hearsay atm but have heard this being thrown about. Obviously Olympic believed it at one point atleast, because they put their eggs in that basket as a club by turning their npl team into a youth set up prematurely
Looks like Andrew Redmayne in the penalty shootout the other night v Sydney United
They need to start worrying more about Saturday nights at Majors Bay Reserve brother
Was always end goal.of the majority of the foundation clubs ... perhaps not of the FA... i cant get a read on FA though, given their troubles and the bailouts i really dont see them wanting to change formats or partially fund anything different... i think they will persist with this as is for now (believe its 3 yrs total) then claim no money or re evaluation and a pretend second tier proposal that will then never come!
Come on boys, in all seriousness, it has that distinct feel of a bloke who does the bare minimum to sting along his place holder missus knowing it’ll never amount to anything
Looks like Kalac v Croatia in 2006.
It does actually
