I guess. Anyway, enough sniping... looking forward to the Derby Jo?

Should be an attacking game. City not as fluent as they were at the start of the season. Could be due to going to a back 4 rather than a 3 and not having the extra number in midfield.
Brattan being man marked hasn't helped either. But we also seem to play better against sides that come to us, which Victory generally does.

Haven't seen enough of your boys to pass judgement. Are you going?

Yeah, although City having 5 in the midfield really killed Victory in the last two games. Our midfield is performing much better generally now but it will be interesting to see if JVS reverts to that formation. Why do you reckon he's changed to a back four?

we're not yet playing at our best, but playing much better than earlier in the season (better than most teams I'd say). our midfield has improved vastly. although our finishing has been a major issue... hopefully that was rectified after last week.

If he gets on the park he'll cop it for sure. I won't be one of them as I have a principal of not booing Socceroos (which has been difficult over the journey ...). I'm expecting a high level of physicality from both sides and a red card or two wouldn't surprise me.
 
Should be a good game but having watched both clubs lately reckon Victory is in better form and reckon they'll win. Brattan and Kamau have been injured and poor lately and Timmy is also struggling. Rojas is a big loss for Victory. Hoping for a good game. Should be heated.
 
yeah, it is.

What's the protocol about when to start wining about offside goals? Straight away or wait to see what the final result is ? Any Carlton supporters around who can shed some light ?
