Tards Round 1 Match Thread

[midfielder]

First for the season

My run on team assuming all fit aside from Huke & Matty who are still out as I understand it . Remember it is a Thursday night game as well... so about a week away...


                                Danny

          Pedji      Wilko        Doig        Heff

Elrich      Travis        Porter    Caceras

                      Mrdja    McGlinchey     

Bench: Boogs, Macca, Redders, Hutch, 

Mariners victory 2 - 1... Travis & McGlinchey to score...

 

[bulldogmariner]

You are assuming a lot there.
Matt Simon will play.
McGlinchey hasnt even signed yet. So how will he score if he doesnt sign.

 

[serious14]

4-1 to Melbourne, Lawrie to play that annoyingly high line defence he always does against Melbourne, and the two A's to run riot.

And Midfielder - that team doesn't have Hutcho.  C'mon man, you know how that works.

Good news on Matty thanks for that ... Mike C in the smh said we were signing McGlinchey so assumed it would happen before next Thursday ...

But with Matty & McG up front ... they will be a handfull

Now Now Serious Hutch has to earn his place in the team, and I trust LM to pick the best and IMO Porter is a better nay much better player

I agree 200% whole heartedly, but do you _really_, deep down honestly expect Hutch not to start??

Signed last night

 

[bulldogmariner]

Malta international will start maybe on the left though.

No news from club in terms of official annoucement but that was my understanding too.

Head: Mariners 1 - Melbourne 1 (with a last minute, heart-breaking equaliser from Thompson)

heart: Mariners 2 - Melbourne 1

Cant see elrich or caceras starting.
Pedj would have to be cm  given how much he has played there this pre-season.

For me the lineup i expect is


                        Danny

Boogs      Wilko      Doig    Sonic

Porter    Mcgl      Pedj      Malta Int

                Simon    Kwas


Bench travis, elrich/caceras, Macca/mrdja, Redders/yth keeper

If macca is not injured he would take a place up front, simon may start from bench depending on fitness.

Mariners to surprise many with a 2-0 win. Wilko a stand out with doigs help.

Heffernan header and Simon tap in from porter cross.

 

[pommypete]

We still haven't won down there.

To be honest i can see melbourne not living up to expectations, they are basicly doing what they done when they won the league last time, go out the next season with almost the same side not many new signings. It will be interesting to see if they peform like they did last year or die in the ass like they did after winning the league last time.

The issue they had last time though was Fred was their playmaker and he left. Once he left their whole game plan fell apart. This time round they haven't lost the like of Hernandez etc so not a whole lot of change...

Signed today so now he can score next week.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Nice gritty 0-0.

frustrate the commentators = tick

doig to hurt Archie badly = tick

 

[Timmah]

I get the feeling he'll name Macca to start.

 

[marinermick]

I get the feeling he'll name Macca to start.

methinks kwas will get the start ahead of macca

 

[nero]

Maltese Int. on the bench for this one. If we need someone to fall over, bring him on.
