Considering the 38 degree heat, surprised the FFA didn't push back the start times a couple of hours.

Staggering really, the hottest sporting event I've ever been to.

They've done this a few times here now been to some fiercely hot games there that should have been moved.

Especially for the ladies - a 2:00 start in January is always asking for trouble.

I know it's a TV thing and Fox are pretty much funding the comp along with Westfield, but surely you have to think of the safety. The women in particular who are part timers in majority, shouldn't be asked to play in that.
Yeh I was expecting they'd make an announcement in the morning. There was a poor kid in the NW corner who was violently vomiting presumably on the way to the toilet with his mum, it seemed pretty obvious it was heat related.

And a European with an Asian passport, which would make him a +1 during Champions League. 3 imports are allowed plus a player from an Asian country.
At this stage I'd say Cirio, Isaias and these 2 newbies should they eventuate. Carrusca and La Rocca would miss, the latter's citizenship didn't arrive in time I believe to classify him as a 'local'

Any signings?

None announced, although Val did say we had signed a Senegalese striker. Free agent signings are allowed for 2 more weeks.
The guy who hasn't scored many goals?

This guy has scored over 70 goals in the top Spanish league, so if he's capable of that he'll be fine here.
If he's signed.
Apparently we've signed 3 players including him, to be announced next week

Too late, as the season is cooked!
Have we been saving ourselves for the Asian Champs...
Think of the draft picks

I wonder if Griffin buying 20% of Gerard's 30% ownership has anything to do with player management this year?

Pretty dire season. Once again we dominated large portions of the game and lost.
Will be only the 2nd side in A LEAGUE history to go from top to bottom, although others have gone close.

Could be almost a record low crowd tonight. Match delayed by an hour due to the heat, but only decided at 5.30 which is pathetic.
Now the suns gone down and the humidity is up. Couple that with a team who has well and truly fallen off the cliff and you don't get bums on seats.
3rd week in a row and 4th out of 5 that we've played in stupid conditions.

Own goal before the game started, then another stunning effort...
