Re: The Official A-League Thread.
yep, was the most embarrasing performance by an a-league team ever. if you thought the grand final between melbourne and adelaide (i think it was 07) was bad, think again. it looked like a local club team took the pitch. just goes to show the level of quality of the a-league compared to the others around the globe. we have a long way to go.

Re: The Official A-League Thread.
EDIT: However Zaraku, if you think the Jets have a chance of progressing in the ACL, then I think you have tall expectations.
Kawasaki are a damn good team, and CCM were well and truly outclassed with Kawasaki having the likes of Juninho, Nakamura and Renatinho. In all honesty, they really can't expect to progress.
Coming from a CCM supporter, it was to be expected really.

It doesn't make Kawasaki any less of an imposing opposition.
I know this.

Re: The Official A-League Thread.
McKinna rating it his worst loss as a coach gives an idea.
Until the ACL is over and we work out who of the Aus teams progress (and how far), we know this from last seasons A-League results:
CCM - Made finals
Jets - Finished last
Unless something drastic happens, I don't see CCM progressing. Would be good to see the Jets get through and have a decent crack at it though.
With a 5-0 scoreline against them, they don't look a great team at all.

Re: The Official A-League Thread.
I guess it just proves that A-League results for the season prior to one's ACL campaign mean nothing in the long haul, for all we know either CCM or Jets could take the title (possible wishful thinking but, I dare to dream). I think it's really a matter of who they vs. and how well they play in the ACL, not how well they did in the A-League season prior.
If I remember correctly, in the 07/08 season the Victory and Adelaide (who'd qualified the year before for ACL) both did crap, but while Melbourne bombed out in the group stages, Adelaide surprised everyone and ended up being runners-up overall and then coming 5th in FIFA club cup.

Re: The Official A-League Thread.
Probably around $170-200 for the lowest category? I could have got one for $99 last season because Sydney FC and Macquarie have a partnership of sorts going - Sydney FC train at uni. With the added home games from the expansion and general inflation I reckon that would be the ballpark figure.

ha, joel griffiths, what a fag.
even in a foreign league he has failed suppress his natural tendency to be a shitcunt.
5 league matches and a second yellow rules him out of the ACL match against newcastle.
congrats.

Re: The Official A-League Thread.
West Sydney team? that's the first I've heard of a west syd team... I've heard of a Wollongong/Sth. N.S.W team and a second Vic team but not a west syd team.
But never the less welcome anyway
