    ccmfans.net is the Central Coast Mariners fan community, and was formed in 2004, so basically the beginning of time for the Mariners. Things have changed a lot over the years, but one thing has remained constant and that is our love of the Mariners. People come and go, some like to post a lot and others just like to read. It's up to you how you participate in the community!

    If you want to get rid of this message, simply click on Join Now or head over to https://www.ccmfans.net/community/register/ to join the community! It only takes a few minutes, and joining will let you post your thoughts and opinions on all things Mariners, Football, and whatever else pops into your mind. If posting is not your thing, you can interact in other ways, including voting on polls, and unlock options only available to community members.

    ccmfans.net is not only for Mariners fans either. Most of us are bonded by our support for the Mariners, but if you are a fan of another club (except the Scum, come on, we need some standards), feel free to join and get into some banter.

25% chance you could be right, or is that a 1 in 3 chance? I dunno, I'll go and check the FFA Cup website and see if there's a procedure for the draw for the semis.

EDIT:
Yeah, got it. The winner of AC v BG is allocated Number 4, no options. The 3 HAL clubs are drawn from the hat (bowl?) and numbered 1 to 3 in the order drawn.
HAL 1 plays Number 4, and the two other HAL clubs numbered 2 and 3 play each other. So, yeah, it's a 1 in 3 chance of playing 4.
So I hope your dream is right. I hope we draw HAL 1 and we play BG or AC. If we can beat them we go through to the Final. At this stage of our season I don't think we could beat MV, AU or PG :-(

I think in the case of a HAL team playing an Association team the latter always has the home game? No draws for that so CCS is out if we play BG or AC.
On the other hand if we draw the other HAL team I would suppose there would be another draw from the hat to see who gets the home ground advantage. Balls in the air there, or something. :confused:

Personally, Im gunning for adelade city and Perth to win tonight.

I'd rather 2 home games than away fixtures with lower league opponents. I think that's more of an advantage/ less disruptive than traveling mid week during HAL season, against 2 A league opponents with horrible records at CCS, traveling long distances mid week

The draw to be adelade united v adelade city (purely for FFA cup interest) and mariners v Perth (at CCS)

Grand final of Adelaide united v mariners at (CCS)

Lift trophy

Done
