Big shoes to fill, have this feeling Corica will struggle this year. All well and good to have the cash but can the Manager get the best out of them. Arnie was good at that.

I wouldn’t shed any crocodile tears if SFC have a shite season but Corica will likely be able to live off the momentum that Arnie has built for a while, just like Moss did a few years back.

Always thought Corica was a gentleman on the field. I hope he does OK, but not too OK.

Yup - Wilko stood off him and that was that.
Oh, and Petrie cost us the game in the 1st half, those chances he missed....................

I didn't follow the Mariners (or football in general) that year. I wasn't introduced to the Mariners until season 3.He cost us the season 1 gf
Any one know why Monty is/was on the bench as a “trialist” in today’s game in Maitland?
Personally, I hate when clubs at any level do that. Putting coaching staff on the bench (or in some cases starting)If you don’t trust the playing roster you have or the young players coming through... don’t have them at the club.
Can never make sense of it.
But anyway, going off the starting side listed, looks like Mulvey went with a 4-5-1 which suits us with the players we have.
Looking forward to the match reports from those at Maitland.

Injuries and young socceroos call ups left the squad very light on numbers.

Anyone at the game today? How'd we play? 2-2 sounded like it was a fair result

Geez, I'll happily take a draw with the Scum in Maitland.

Would've been good if there was a stream
Yeah definitely, I don’t think a back 3/5 suits us with the players we have.
Seemingly, that’s been proven with today’s result (match reports from those there pending)

Yeah totally agree. It seems like midfield is where our depth is. And we don't have 3 fit and firing quality CB's either.

Hope O'Neill is all good. Haven't heard anything about his injury against Olympic
The idea of Clisby, especially, as part a of a CB trio is better than the reality. Not saying he’s a bad CB, just a more natural solid LB.
And with a back 5 in modern football it’s usually coupled with a formation/style that expects to have majority of the ball that will stretch the pitch and create overloads.
I don’t see us doing that. Happy to be proven wrong obviously.
A CM trio of say:
Tom
O’Neil Wee Mac
Is a solid enough base for this league. And Melling/Berry as back ups I can be okay with that.

I hate 3 and 5 at the back formations. 5 makes it look like you're scared to attack and only elite teams can play 3 at the back. The 3 have to be outstanding players capable of playing the right style to suit that formation. The usual 4 at the back for this team thanks.
