City need to have a big 2 games. Unfortunately for them I dont see them coming home with more then 2 points. Wsw are in a roll and are playing good football, and the smurfs are doing what the smurfs do best.

Interesting to see what happens with the Melbourne games. Considering smurfs are already in Melbourne it will likely be behind closed doors.

Melbourne Victory V Wellington Phoenix Wednesday 17th February *Scheduled to be behind closed doors.
*note not sure if the Nix can travel and avoid quarantine, if they can't match will need to be postponed.

I haven't been able to find any info on whether the Nix can travel down to Melbourne or not yet. If you find any info please post.

Last thing I heard was nsw hadn't closed the border. So if that is still that case it would go ahead.

Another thing I didn't factor in City are scheduled to play the WSW in Sydney. If they fly out will they be except to return back to Melbourne without quarantine? Or what happens if NSW close the border within the next 24 hours?

Really appreciate the sentimonies dude. FWIW if we (City) had to lose our first Grand Final, I am glad it was you to guys, who have been a class above everyone else in the past few years in the HAL.

Always got time for Luke Brattan too. Class Act.
