  • 33 wins
  • 14 draws
  • 20 losses
  • 2017 FFA cup runners up
  • 2017/18 finished 6th 5th place in the regular season / lost to MV in the elimination finals
  • 2018 FFA cup winners
  • 2018/19 finished 4th place in the regular season / lost to PG on penalties in the semi final

Yeah he did pretty well at Adelaide given he had to endure two seasons of playing primarily without a quality number 9 and attacking mid.

I think we need to be a bit patient at the moment. We aren't getting smashed by clubs (yet). I think it's just going to take a bit more time for everyone to settle in.

A bit early to panic. We were much better against Wellington. Could easily of won that game and only conceded to an unlucky handball. If you take three first choice players out of any A-league team they will struggle to win games. We are a top six team this season but not top 3 IMO though.

it depends on the context of "panic" you're referring too. 

should we panic about our performances? mmm... perhaps they're slowing getting better.

should we panic about our title chances? well i'd say that horse has already bolted. 8 points off top spot with 2 tough away games coming up. our chances of winning the league are gone 5 weeks in.

Injuries last season, now injuries this season. All we can do now is try to grind out results until we get some players back. At least we look defensively solid.

This is why you need to get your squad together early.

Which of the following will Victory do?

A: Sign an injury replacement
B: Play Athiu on the wing
C: Kurz reshuffles like usual and moves Dobras to the wing, Toivonen to 10, Athiu up top.
D: Kurz moves Dobras to the wing and Hope starts at 10.
E: Give a youth player a run.

Based on what he did at Adelaide I’m going to guess C or D but you can never be sure with Kurz.



I'd like to see C, it might help our midfield to have Ola more involved. But I think Kurz tried Athiu on the wing during preseason which went ok.

I can see Kurz trying this at some point. Especially if Dobras and Poulsen continue to not pull their weight.

A few? Doubtful.

"Several" to me is 6-7 weeks.

Still don't know what the answer is with Kenny.

Just always seem to be missing that crucial bit of skill that would make him a prolific striker.

Both him and Elvis always seem like they just need that goal or two for the confidence and then they'll be off to the races, but in the mean time they just seem average af.

None of them jump out as the obvious answer.
MV stuck between a rock and a hard place.
Maybe B but hard to say.

Probably just the Marvel games where there is much more room to move on the profit margins. I very much doubt we will see this deal for any AAMI games.
