The draw comes out tomorrow what matches do we want to see? 

Adelaide United v Adelaide City. 

Modbury Jets v Newcastle Jets

Northern Spirit vs Heidelberg
They could call it the ex-NSL derby lol

Næ

if only that occurs and in Sydney - I'll be there :) lol

Draw is on tonight at 7.30 EST, on 10Play. Didn't say anything about ParamountPlus, but assume its on there too.

Here we go 

Heidelberg v Brisbane Roar will be a decent tie

Shit draw imo

Some interesting matches there.

Also looking forward to Heidelberg vs Roar, and WU vs MV will likely be a good match after what happened in the finals.

Thats what ambition does. 

Interesting - we are supposed to be playing Aston Villa at Townsville on the 20th. How we then play in Victoria the next day is a good question!

i thought the draw was good, the open draw is a good concept and should of been done like from day dot. 

Oh yeah absolutely. I was referring to the results of the draw. 

QLD qualifying match on YouTube tonight if anyone needs some Saturday night football 

Keen. 

Magpies up 4-0

It was very one-sided. Don't give them any chance against Macarthur though!

Ffs what's the point of the home draw for non a league clubs?

Joke.

Agree, its a bit shit that some of these smaller clubs can't enjoy a tasty cup fixture on their home pitch. I hope they at least get a decent profit from gate takings and canteen/ bar by moving grounds and its not too far out of the way for their supporters to travel too. ..... Smallest "club" of the lot, still doesn't have a ground allocated for the tie I see?  They can come and try playing at Lakeside, we'll tell them to get fucked in three different languages. Hahahahah

i think the problem is, some of these smaller clubs dont mind moving it to a bigger venue, thinking it will generate more $$$ for them. 
Nevertheless it takes away what this cup is all about, all games should be played at home to the member fed club, regardless of size or lighting requirements.

The AL clubs can learn to play on different pitches for once. They aren't always going to be playing on carpets. Remember Kyrgyzstan.

Geez that’s exactly what fans would want to hear from Austin. Forget the friendly matches he wants to win a trophy.
