Ok thanks.
was there any announcement that this the Matilda’s home ? Or that FV called it that ? 

Jack Edwards reserve is udnergoing major upgrades and three sides are closed to the public PLUS the light towers arent currently working... Bundoora is the logical choice although capacity is even smaller than Jack Edwards.... 

Yeah mate, its the "Home of the Matilda's" but the Matilda's dont spend any time there... hahahahahahahah Not even during the Womens Wold Cup in Australia ...... must be the AFL's fault eh? lol

bloody gayfl State, you guys do my head in lol.......
HTF WTF appoves that one wonders ? the FA ? or FV asks the FA approving the use of the NT/Matlidas trademark.
Whatever the case its laughable and typical we unique haha

Its rubbing off on Sydney too mate.... you may have to go live in another country soon :)

Surely oakleigh can play somewhere else in the South East? Well many of their fans make the trek to bundoora? 

hahaha Isnt that cute, you think Oakleigh has fans? hahahahahahaah  I reackon as many Oakleigh fans will trek to the northern suburbs on w school night as will come out to Lakeside on a Sunday afternoon this weekend ..... 17  maybe 20 max :)

Can't really catch a break with you at the moment lol 

Hahahah c'mon mate, dont be like that... Please dont take anything seriously. Its just a bit of banter. 

Choakleigh DONT have any fans (at least that travel), that bit is real.... HAHAHAHAAHAHAHAAHAH

Lol all good I guess npl and a league have that in common stupid decisions. I would of gone to oakleigh vs Sydney if it was nearby. South vs Wellington will be a big night! 

There will be a fair few people there in Bundoora, but mainly to watch as neutrals... 

South v Wellington wont be as big as the previous rounds clash against Preston... I doubt any Wellington fans will travel for this one and most South fans Ive spoken too arent too plesed playing a foreign club and would have prefered Victory or CFG if not a decent interstate rival like  APIA or Brisbane City.

They might not jump on a plane, but there is a small group of Kiwi expats that live in Melbourne and support the Nix (https://www.facebook.com/WellingtonPhoenixMelbourne/).
Probably won't get huge numbers, but I reckon some will show up at Lakeside. Remember, these expats only get to see their team play live a handful of times each season, so any extra game is a bit of a bonus for them. 
Also, always the possibility of facing MV/MC later in the comp. You gotta get past the Nix first though, and that's not an easy task.

Will be great to have Paddy Kisnorbo come home to Lakeside again :) hahahahahahahahah

I got some massive dirt for massive exclusive news that this year's Australia Cup decider won't be at Melbourne's AAMI Park already confirmed (due to Monster Jam which is happening on the same night - Saturday October 5th) even in event one of Victorian clubs qualify for the showpiece decider.

https://aamipark.com.au/event/monster-jam-melbourne-2024/

That's shit. 

It’s not Monster Jam always been held at AAMI Park since 2013 except for the two cancelled COVID years on first Saturday or second Saturday in October that’s why always check venue availability across ALM thru venue websites. 

Say it with me now - Lakeside Park! Lakeside Park! Lakeside Park!

I don't care about monster jam lol 

Lakeside STADIUM thank you very much :P hehehehe

I suppose its a decent option if it is two Aleague clubs in the final.. If its a Victorian NPL club in the final they may have to book the MCG though :)

I think I got mixed up with the racetrack in Queensland hahahaha

Sadly, not many Monaros or Chargers at either of them these days :(

It's time for everyone's favorite competition the Australia cup. No other league displays the npl vs the a league like the Australia cup. 

Tonight and tomorrow we have playoff matches to get into the Rd of 32 

confirmed Australia Cup round of 32 main broadcast fixtures on 10Play as follows,

Tuesday July 30th: Oakleigh Cannons v Sydney FC
Wednesday July 31st: Blacktown City v Adelaide United
Tuesday August 6th: Lambton Jaffas v Melbourne Victory
Wednesday August 7th: Heidelberg United v Central Coast Mariners

Western should be to good for the bare bones jets tonight but I'm thinking a win would good for the Jets new ownership 

Well I was wrong lucky nobody gives a fook 

True MCG, was expecting some posts from WU and Jets supporters.

Hahahahahahahaha ... 

I hope Hakoa takes Oakleigh to extra time and penalties on Tuesday night... we are playing them in the Dockerty Cup final 4 days later..

I want you blokes to keep this thread going when the npl teams start.

How many games does Aloisi have before he's out of rope?
