no sydney derby would have very very dire.

Brisbane what the hell man?

Brisbane are the big worry. Macarthur and WU aren't worth worrying about. Basket cases both and the A League would be well rid of them. 

The move north has proven to be a disaster. 
Poor venue that excludes half the supporter base and the widely held perception of absentee owners running the club into the ground.
Tbh, as a long running Roar supporter I believe that the only thing that can save the club is new owners and a move back to Suncorp.

There is such a great vibe at Hindmarsh this season.
Fans really appreciating the player efforts.
Goodwin as you say is a genuine local celebrity and every time Irankunda comes on and gets on the ball the place starts to murmur and hum it's fantastic to see.
Loving it

Really surprised that many turned up to the derby. I wonder if there was an element of “I wanna see how things unfold off the pitch” type of morbid curiosity? The media was certainly looking for trouble.

I do like and respect you as a fan but I was waiting (with that same morbid curiosity) to see how you'd spin this one

95% of people on this forum said at the time Redcliffe was a great move for Brisbane and they should have done it sooner.

Like almost always, this forum keeps eating a lot of humble pie.

How their hack owners still haven't had their licence revoked is a joke.

I thought it made sense at the time but it certainly meant me and my mates couldn't go.

8,800 against Adelaide United on a day with perfect weather conditions. Sure, Vucks don’t like Sunday games, but it was an early kick off and heavily marketed due to the pride round promotion. This game probably would have got 18,000+ 3 months ago.

This sorta corroborates my point about people going to the derby last week to see what would unfold.

So pride round didn't go down too well with the hardcore hooligans?
How was the rest of the round for Aleague .... good crowds?

Can’t believe all the rainbows didn’t attract fans this week.

Week 18 of the 2022-23 A-league Mens season was attended by 37,383 people (#14 this season) at an average of 6,231 per game (#12) using 25% of capacity. The ALM has this season seen 792,858 people attend at an average of 7,341 per game using 30% of capacity/

I’d assume pride round would have attracted more people to the game than triggered RWNJs enough to not attend. Would not have been a factor at all. 

So it was a success then? Cool.  Whats the next round's theme?

Surely you must sick of all this arguing & Bullying. I thought the NSL has started doesn't that take your attention?

The Greek Super League has recently introduced a top 6 finals play offs - how plastic is that.

I don't think Mono's SM Hellas will have any problem fitting in.

Another angry man shouting at nothing!!!!

Bullying? Thats a great idea mate, next round for the ISUZU trucks but not passenger cars, mens but not women's league gender specific but not exclusive Aleagues PTY LTD should be an "anti-bullying round" 

"Recently"? Oh Paulie....... 

Yeah, no worries, your issue, you don't even follow the league & yet you complain & misunderstood the reason behind the round.

Methinks you like arguing, hence why complain about a league you don't follow, highlighting an issue in society that you clearly have no experience & have no interest in.

Yeah go back to shouting at the cloud & you call me an old man.

Easy there Robbo, dont get suckered into the anti-MSC rhetoric... My argument is against "themed rounds" regardless of what they are.....
