Rd 17 - Perth Glory (Away) V Mariners

[Corsair]

In what will be a scrap and battle I feel that Kaltak will be better suited.

We also missed Faz’s go forward last week. Both our fullbacks struggled to get forward and it really affected us. For me Faz is a no brainer if fit. So important to our style of play.

I would think he'd put Kaltak back in, even though I don't necessarily agree with that.

Where Faz is concerned, if he's only fit enough for one half, would you use him first half or second half?

You say that but it's his second for DOGSO, he will be targeted and whilst quite good at those sliding last minute tackles/blocks it's all about timing. The officials seem very trigger happy for Pens at the moment.

I just watched the mini match and Kaltak's presence would be very handy to have for some of their set pieces which gave City trouble. Perth will be dirty to lose Lachman to a really harsh red card. I don't see how they could say it wasnt a footballing challenge where he's clearly chasing and there's been a clash of feet. Unfortunate red outside the box but only a yellow inside. Quite different to say Grant barging Tulio while not on the ball and even that was controversial. It feels like the officials made some soft DOGSO decisions early on and have doubled down rather than admit those calls weren't great.

We also missed Faz’s go forward last week.

McGarry will have had a lot more time to get his head around what's expected of him, where team mates should be, etc.. so I'd expect more from him too.

"Ryan Williams, Mustafa Amini, Keegan Jelacic and Zach Duncan are all one yellow card away from suspension having each been booked four times this season."

Let's wind them up

Sounds like moresche is good to go and DWH is 50/50 for this weekend.

This is the game we can least afford our usual slow start.

Zadkovich knows how to rev his side up and Macedonia Park is a cauldron if not subdued quickly.

Haven’t seen DWH back to full training with the squad in yet. I reckon no chance until that happens. Disappointing for him and us. I think you’re on the money with Moresche.

I think that's media talk and gamesmanship, i doubt we'll see either of them. Unless they are 100% to play why waste money on taking them all the way to Perth. If Moresche travels I'd expect to see him play, very unlikely DWH will travel.

Me too.

Yeah good info because no one wants to miss a game so they may be hesitant to make a necessary challenge. ‘Run at em’!

Squad announced today and the boys flight out today too.

I agree with Mick that Faz should 100% be starting.

I'm not 100% sure which way i would go with Hall and Kaltak.

Clisby is basic but gets up and down the line well. I can't say i'm worried about him tbh.

cant say i'm over concerned about Perf, but it could be argued I have one or both oars barely wet at all ....and dont talk about how hard the trip to perth is FFS...last weeks was worse leaving at sparrows on game day , the boys got this

The real issue is the 10pm (our time) start. Bodies would be used to going to bed by that time. No matter what you do we will not be at peak intensity.

Famous last words lol

Was glad for Dan (and our depth) for him to get the minutes but Kaltak if you took away the pens has been easily one of the best in the league, great presence. Very happy to have him back. Love Hall. But it’s a no brainer and I’m sure he’ll start.

You have a lot of faith in young men going to bed on time ?

It’s not that bad (the lateness) but it does have effect towards the end of the game.

It’s the travel and time zone change that has a bigger effect as it’s a in and out mission you don’t have time to adjust. Eating and sleeping are thrown out to when you are hungry and the general fatigue of traveling
It’s more mental as you start thinking about it instantly. If they can win the battle with the mind they should be fine

Definitely Kaltak back in over Hall
