This.  
If it were true and they were the ones offering the best deal it would be bad business not to take it. 

To be honest, FFA paying part of Honda's wages and us getting a better sponsorship deal out of it; literally win/win lol

Kit leak?



Official reveal Friday.

Wonder if the Honda sponsorship is a hint at a second season?

That kit without sponsors would be great. I’d even buy my first strip since season 1 :)

I mean if they're giving us money due to the visibility of the actual football player we signed from their country for our football team I think it's on a whole other planet than the Bolt thing, but that's just me.

Having Honda as your major sponsor just because you have signed Honda is Bolt-level gimmicky. Thought they would have cut to the chase and just got the VAR on there.

That analogy is completely offside! Let's go to the VAR to decide... oh wait-

He was a man of specific quirks. He believed that all meals should be earned through physical effort. He also contended, zealously like a drunk with a political point, that the third dimension would not be possible if it werent for the existence of water.

Might even be Tomi Juric, who knows. Not a marquee though. Unfortunately Troisi is hogging that spot

The single tweet by Garb was a marquee name, but not taking a marquee spot.

Cant think of any international players (unless they were 35+)

I would love for Juric to come back to the A-League where our seasons are shorter and his injuries will be properly managed.

Would also get the chance to play in the ACL if he signs for MV.

Anyone have info on North situation this year. You can now move around? (which realistically you could anyway) More importantly is it general admission or you need to still be a member? 

thx maytes

Members and fans in these areas no longer need a specific seat number to gain access to a standing bay.

The new guidelines allow anyone with a valid ticket or membership to access a ‘North End Standing’ bay and enjoy the different match day experience – subject to capacity – with casual or one-off supporters also welcome.

Bays 36, 37 and 38 will now be ‘North End Standing’ areas at AAMI Park on match days, while the designated bays at Marvel Stadium will remain the same.

So from that i think tickets will be sold for that area under the name 'North End Standing'.

Yes he did mean it. I think people are still judging Kenny on his unfit just come from NPL form. He looks much improved imo.

Ah good. He did show some good signs towards the end of last season.

I really think Hope has a very bright future ahead of him, I hope (heh) he starts alongside Antonis this season. Deng was shocking all night, so many misplaced passes and was beaten in the air in the last goal.

I hope so. Kevin keeps playing Valeri though. I thought Broxy was worst on ground because he coughed up mistakes for two of their goals.

I thought the service into him was very poor and the team tried to use him like we used Berisha (he's too different a player and the need to adjust how they play). He had an outstanding touch in the box that led to a shot that sailed over the cross bar The second goal was one where you have to be in the right place at the right time. I agree we need another striker, no way can we go into the season with one decent striker in the squad.

Kenny scored goals, but I didn't think he looked good. Especially his close control, he spent most of the game chasing his touch. 

The actions he had to do first time were good though, such as his two finishes. He's going to be a great plan B, but last night cemented why I think he'll be just that. 

Roux looked decent, but wasn't impressed with Brown at all.

Concur with above. Kenny's first goal was well taken but the second (for those that didn't see it) had basically crossed the line. Keeper had given up on it, maybe it even had already crossed the line but being there was no good camera angle to really tell. 
Would also add that Hope looked more dynamic than anyone in our midfield all game. Though I think he had one big error leading to a chance (was watching in dodgy stream so couldn't pick out players that well).
Broxham also let the Japanese guy stroll in and take his first goal, and made a terrible pass leading to the second.
