Well, we sure were lucky to escape with that goalless stalemate.

Should win the next 2 games, then it'll come down to the last game against city, which should decide an all-important top 2 spot.
 
Very good win by the Socceroos, could've been much more than 7 goals such was the dominance. But disappointed that the locals missed out on seeing Super Tim (Cahill) out there, obviously saving him for the now meaningless $ydney game next Tuesday.

Also the (E)FFA would be mad to not give Adelaide a match in the final round of qualifying after tonight's turnout.

Hopefully it's against Japan
 
To finish top, we'll have to beat City & hope that Brisbane do not win both of their last 2 games. Really hope it can happen...

Plus I've decided that if our home final (in either week one or two) is not going to be played at Hindmarsh, then I'll be giving it a miss.

So our old mate Nige did us no favours today being sent off (yet again) with the Jets up 1-0 against the Roar who came back to win 2-1.

Currently 0-0 Glory v City. If it stays that way, then we have to draw next week to finish at least top 2.

With Brisbane playing away to the Victory next week a draw in this game could keep the Victory interested in trying for 5th spot although, the Glory play Sydney away (after playing AFC mid week) and the Victory also play midweek so they may be happy with staying in 6th spot.

EDIT: The Glory have hit the front 1-0.
 
Glory won 3-2.

For us to finish top, we have to beat City on Friday night & hope that the victory can at least draw with the Roar (who IMO were lucky to win tonight). But given the victory play an ACL match mid-week, I'm hoping they don't 'tank' in their final game, I'll be absolutely p!$$ed if we won & the victory hand the Roar the 3 points (& the Premiers' Plate on a silver platter)!!!
 
And on Boogaard, I'm so glad he's no longer playing in a red shirt, his brain fade could well be the difference in us finishing top or not. Soccer's version of Troy Chokelin.

The Victory have nothing to play for as they cannot improve on their current (6th) place. I think they will rest a few players in preparation for the final the week after.

I think it was Marcello Carrusca who came out recently and stated that all final round games should be played at the same time to avoid two sides playing out a "Biscotto".
