ALW Elimination Final vs Victory

[marinermick]

Double header with the men's Adelaide game for the 1st leg?

Give them their own game Saturday night

 

[Josho Howe]

Victory let Dumont go coz they didn't want her to be a dual code athlete. Next season, knocks them out of the finals with 2 pen saves. That's some tasty revenge.

Could be a challenge to get people to both games. Having the men as a curtain raiser wouldn’t be a horrible idea. Only issue might be if APL get pissy about ticket sales but that would probably be offset by not opening the ground twice?

I think the dual code thing was why she took half a season to get going.

She didn't seem to have as much agility early on. But she has been one of the better keepers in the league for a while. At times I thought she was unlucky that Williams was keeping her out of the Matildas.

Bring on Sydney FC!

Blew some absolute sitters. Should have won two games. Urgamul and Simon missing from 6 yrd box was criminal in a final.

Felt very comfortable with Dumont in goals for the shootout and i think it effected the victory girls because they knew how good she is. Although i thought the first two pens were a plan to go high against her but they couldn’t keep that up

Victory were pretty toothless considering they best SFC 4-0 last week

Congratulations girls i thought you were the better team

 

[true believer]

i hope everyone sticks around next week and we have 10.000 .
watching us beat sydney .

Not just that they let her go, lied about it.

At least the APL are consistent with their contemptuous treatment of the fans. You couldn't make it up - the womens team playing for a spot in the GF and in all likelihood the mens team playing for the premiers plate and this is the best option they can come up with?

Sydney men are at home to Perth on Sunday at 3pm. They could have made that a double header or if they wanted to get the gate revenue from a standalone fixture then have it 7pm Sunday, gives the SFC fans plenty of time to get from Allianz to Leichhardt.

The other option would be to make the kick off 12.30pm on the Saturday to give Mariners fans at least a chance to go to both games - they are not precious about early kick off times because the City/Jets semi is kicking off at 1pm on the Sunday so that can be played as a double header.

Not sure the club would have stood for this without an almighty row if Shaun was still at the helm.

WELL, that was very much a game of identical halves and identical extra time ...still, a winning pelanty shoot out is a win none the less , upwards and onwards girls

 

[FFC Mariner]

Pretty confident that a CCM v SFC row with the APL only has 1 winner

Not us
