Sand Gropers Friday Night

[Hello Sailor]

While we haven't lost a game recently, and some of those draws feel like losses, here's another chance for three points against a lower ranked team. I'm getting old and I may be asleep for a 9.45pm kick off on Friday so I might just have to take a late after noon power/nana nap

As soon as we are in front you can nod off. Don’t need to watch the giveaway

Sains and Steele on 4 yellow cards.

I'm tipping 1 or both to be out the following match.

Next ALeague game is against Wanderers, silver lining is we have two ACL games between them so would be a good chance to blood youngsters, get some form into the players that are not doing well (Sains) especially if he is on a mandatory suspension, run the shit out of him.

If Alfie is back by then too he can take Steeles spot.

Afl is due near 2nd ACL game but would still need to play Scicluna

Can we update this thread name to be something a bit more relevant and obvious.

Nickname threads ok when obvious...but in 20 years of the Aleague, Perth Glory have never been commonly referred to as Sand Gropers

Do we really want to go back to zero shots on goal in a half again with Alfie? Asking for a friend.

WA has been sandgropers for well over a century...

 

[ryan]

It goes without saying but we desperately need a win here.

 

[shipwreck]

Does anyone else find it weird that Storm is always the player interviewed and not our Captain?

 

[finally retired]

That's because Storm is on NZ time.
None of our other players are at the ground in time for any interviews.

Thanks for the history lesson, professor.

I believe I specifically said Perth Glory. And cobsidering the term had been used a grand total of 2 times in the history of the forum, its not commonly used for the Glory.

Commonly known colloquialism for someone from WA

People from SA known as croweaters.

Queenslanders are banana benders.

These things are probably not as commonly known post gen X. Need a few tik tokkers to start using them again for it to catch on.

Sorry, my bad. I can see how there could be confusion between references to Western Australians versus the only team in the league based in that state.

I can't see the confusion - but I can see the confusion if we were playing one of the Mexican teams.
