Caceres looked good for victory. He will provide a good amount of info for the boys next ACL.

 

[marinersman]

Anybody want to tip tonight's results?

I'll go for the tards 3-1 and the barrel boys 2-0.

Both sides, on paper should have relatively confortable wins, but who knows. Another three points tonight will really set up both sides nicely, albeit a long way to go yet.

 

[brett]

I think the Tards will cop a 1-0 upset loss. Goal to come late.

 

[MattSimon]

Adelaide win 3-2 (I hope it rains goals at Hindmarsh)
Watch out for Elvis "The King" Scott.

Melbourne win 2-0.
Perth might be cheering the Thais, Chonburi is an affiliated club.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Adelaide 1-0, crowd 9,000 (max)

Tards 0-1

 

[serious14]

Hopefully Melbourne's work in the heat chamber pays dividends, 'cause it's tipped to be 37 degrees wth 70% humidity today, with a MINIMUM of 26.

Ouch.

 

[tyson]

Will these matches be shown at the Leagues Club tonight?

Will anyone be going there to watch?

 

[nutmeg]

in the adelaide game its 0-0 half time

 

[northernspirit]

0 - 0 full time
adelaide a bit toothless in the final third, solid defensively - i thought the chinese team looked good in the first half actually

 

[marinersman]

Very frustrating game to watch. Adelaide were disappointing in the final third although the Chinese defended very, very well and stuck everyone behind the ball.

They will be extremely hard to beat at home. They are a decent team on tonight's effort.

Still, not the end of the world. Four points from two games is acceptable. Home games are a must win in this league though.

 

[marinersman]

Gamba Osaka defeated Chunnam 4-3 in Korea tonight in front of a massive crowd of a whole 3,000 which puts them on four points, one ahead of the tards. Highly likely the two games the tards play against Gamba will decide who goes through their group.

A win for them tonight would be nice.

 

[serious14]

What a goal!!!!    2-1 to Chonburi in the 78th, a deadset 35m strike out of nowhere by their Cameroonian import.

Wow.

 

[serious14]

3-1 to Chonburi, 94th minute.  Good night and thanks for coming.

 

[MattSimon]

My predictions were not very close (hangs head in shame).

Massive game against the Japanese coming up next round for Melbourne. Can't wait

 

[~Floss~]

Feck, what a goal! Let's get a Camaroonian

at 4min on the counter (78' in the match)

 

[BrisRecky]

as much as I want Victory and the barrels to kick their fair share of arse...all I can say is
C'MON YOU ANTLERS!!!!!

 

[soccersensei]

Tards looked sluggish on the ball, and did not play with confidence. How many times they were dribbling into/over each other because there just wasn't enough movement was almost laughable.

After seeing stumbling onto the Football Asia show on sbs this afternoon I can't wait to see our hallowed Grahame park on the Asian stage. A years time just think we'll be seeing a beloved mariners on a similar show. 

Don't worry since changed off sbs
