I hoping we can get at least 3 wins out of those four.

It will make the title race much more exciting if we do.

Only 6 points behind CCM now, that's just two wins. If they get a loss or at least another couple of draws and then we beat them, we'll catch up no worries. :d

Did you wake everybody up? :lol:

You did well to resist the temptation to look up the result!

a win like that should really boost their confidence and our next three matches can really change the shape of the top three. we have melbourne heart away, newcastle at home and central coast away.

then we play wellington away (currently 4th) to continue the top of the table clashes.

what a great win last night. I had to record and watch it late because we had a family function.

Was going mental when we won and everyone was sleeping at like midnight. What a great win.

Fitzy isn't in the match day squad.

Kofi might be able to do the job but not as well as Berisha or someone who has more experience in that position.

I'm sure Ange has had a plan in place for this situation, so it will be interesting to see how he arranges it.

I agree though, maybe delving into the transfer market for extra back up, especially for the ACL, is not such a bad idea, but I think Ange is a bit too proud to do it.

Injury scare is always a problem but not for this situation. Sure Besart is an injury blow but we still have Issey and Danning supported now by the return of Broich and Henrique. Should be a good match this weekend.

Maybe Ryan Griffiths on loan for the ACL?

With this whole Berisha injury scare thing, it makes me really thing we need another striker.

Unless Ange has faith in Fitzegerald as a striker or is letting Kofi have a go, i think we desperately need a striker. Marquee anyone???

fair enough mate, for the record i wasnt having a "go" at you if you interpreted it that way.

The Roar website, just google roar and it will come right up.
They may be sold out in which case you could have to wait a while, or you could borrow someones and burn it.

Great insight into pro football as an up and coming star.

I was not judging my opinion that we need plyers from our current form i just think that we have a few deficiancies in our squad that need to be adressed before the ACL, speed for example.

Can anyone tell me where I can buy the Broich DVD?

i dont subscribe to the notion we need any additions, yeah we have had a bad run but it coincided with the loss of a couple of our best attacking options. The last few weeks has shown promise that the team has played to our style without the two in question. no that they are back the confidence in the other players will increase. By seasons end and the ACL kick off will be scoring for fun again.

Does anyone know anything about any possible signings to be made before the ACL teams have to be submitted on Feb 1. I saw something about a european based player but im not sure if there is any truth to it. Does anyone know anything about this ?

In all fairness to the rest of the boys, in the last game against AU he was given a few golden chances but he wasn't able to put them away.

Also a couple of times in that game he had the option to lay off for an easy assist and almost certain goals, but his hunger for a goal got the better of him.

Might very well have cost us the win.

great to see Broich back, hopefully they dont put all the reliance on him now.

I feel so sorry for Berisha, the lad works his socks off, but he dsnt get enough service. Im sure if he got more service, wed be smashing.

"Finally, German star back to kickstart the Roar!"

That's the title of an article in the CM today about Broich ready to play on Saturday against SFC.

It was mostly about Berisha needing the great service he provides and doesn't say anything about whether or not he will start but great news none the less.

Solorzano and David Williams... no thanks! Williams has been crap since he left NQF, a pity because he was doing well with them, but I don't think signing players that can't make it at other teams will be good for our ACL campaign.

Also Solo has osteo pubis and can only play the odd game, like Reinaldo did for a while, part of the reason we didn't extend his loan I think.

Matty McKay however, would be an absolute ripper to have on board for the ACL!!

While the game last night was good and we played well, it's clear we need to dip into the transfer window this month to strengthen the squad. We can't hope to give the ACL a shake and challenge for the A-League unless we get a few more players.

I'd like to see McKay back on loan, plus out of favor players Solorzano and David Williams come on board. Another defender is also key- not sure who though

We knew the win would come, they stuck to their style and believed in the system, happy new year roar fans!

Haha, sounds exactly like what I've been doing, bloody great new year though!

I do apologise, I haven't been in a crying corner, I've been on holidays and away from a computer.

I have been doing plenty of crying though, especially after the GC game... happy now though!

its been getting a bit quiet in here....surely now we got the win everyone will come out of their crying corners.

Six posts late ;)

Matt Smith ruled out of Nix Game

It would probably be better in the long run as he is much younger.

ive been impressed with Hingert, id try him over Steff

Should Shane get a rest and try Hingert out?

Definalty would like to see Danning or Visconte start.
