Pretty good side and good enough to beat Kuwait.

However, I suspect Mile would replace Burns and Vidosic will definitely be starting, probably for Brosque.

Oh, and Lowry possibly capped for Jameison.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Rustyatitsoff for Archie

 

[serious14]

Rustyatitsoff for Archie

Give Archie and Brosque the first half to try and gel - if not, set GiveMeMyNikitaBackMac loose on their tiring defenders etc.

Mick - I want to agree re: Jedi but we've seen Pim favour Burns before.... save Jedi for the second half when he can just stand there and outhead everyone.  ;D  I sincerely hope Dario does start though.

-------------------Danny----------------
Wilkshire - Moore - Spiranovich - M Thompson
----------Jedinak---------Culina-------------
Vidosic --------- Carle ---------  Oar
-------------------Archie-----------------

Think Sterj will start. But I prefer my lineup.
Thinks Spiro should be a shoe in over colisimo.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Big Big game for Carle if he can get 90 mins.

 

[elevated position]

big rap for Tommy Oar though. And deserved

 

[Jazzie]

Danny and Jedi - well in

AND NO f**kING HOLMAN

Wa hay

Gonna do my happy happy dance!

 

[marinermick]

Doubt Nikita will be starting. Pim could not even remember him as one of his strikers last night on foxsports fc. Kept getting him confused with Nicky Carle.

 

[midfielder]

Good article about Danny's recall.

My starting line up

    U-Jean
Kemp, Moore, Colosimo, Jamieson
              Jedi, Ratboy

Sterj          Vido  Brosque

                Archie

 

[pjennings]

My starting line up

     U-Jean
Kemp, Moore, Colosimo, Jamieson
              Jedi, Ratboy

Sterj           Vido   Brosque

                Archie

I'd give Heff the nod. Jamieson has not done that much this year. I also suspect thta Pim will give Cale the start in front of Dario - probably his last chance.

 

[marinermick]

My starting line up

     U-Jean
Kemp, Moore, Colosimo, Jamieson
              Jedi, Ratboy

Sterj           Vido   Brosque

                Archie

If that is the lineup and formation we may well be in for a long night
