Brisbane vs Adelaide - Rnd 8

[Red-4-Life]

Thoughts?

The girls just need to show fighting spirit in this game so come full time they can hold their heads up high knowing they did their best unlike last weekend. Winning will be very hard as Brisbane have only ever lost one game and have a few Matilda's in their squad. I rekon theres gonna be a few ins and outs this weekend as well.

I think....Brisbane 2:0 Adelaide

Westfield W-League, Round 8
Brisbane Roar WFC vs Adelaide United WFC
Ballymore Stadium, Brisbane
6:00pm local time

I'll post team news once released by the website.

really hope the girls put in a vastly improved effort this week. Brisbane are probably the strongest team in the league, 0-2 would a great result for us........can't see it happening though, 4-0 to Brisbane.

[Red-4-Life]

It’s off to Brisbane and a David and Goliath match-up as Brisbane Roar host Adelaide United in a match that pits top v bottom in the Westfield W-League 2009 season. Although losing fullback Brooke Spence to a season ending ankle injury Brisbane Roar will be looking to continue the form that has seen them retain the only undefeated record in the competition to-date. Adelaide will be playing for pride as they still continue to work hard in the league but will be up against it when they face the inaugural champions at Ballymore Stadium.

3 youth coming in

[billy the kid]

Unfortunately....................6-0

[AWA]

An upset...2-1 to AU.
Good inclusions, some inspired playing and coaching, nothing to lose!

[Red-4-Life]

if they can take the points that would be an incredible result! Defence will be reshuffled with some inclusions and some injuries/suspensions. Maybe it will do the trick. If they can finish their chances they create and defend wel its possible but i cant see it happening...maybe next week at home vs Sydney.

But...Impossible is Nothing!!!

[beaches]

The defence will be under the most pressure they have ever encountered, especially when Brisbanes running backs come into play. If they had kicked straight against Canberra a few weeks ago that would have been a demolition before halftime.
Brisbane work as a disciplined team, and cover their running backs when they go forward. If AU players do not run down with them all hell will break loose. AU defenders will have a full time job containing forwards without the extra pressure of these Full backs joining the assault.

7-0

stupid odds...i do the odds around here.

no wonder we are losing with players adopting the attitudes of Red-4-Life's friend...disgraceful...

[Red-4-Life]

she was joking mate having a bit of a laugh. shes not the type who will give up no matter what the score is, she'll go out there and give it her all, i know it, shes told me that.

[bennylava]

im very familiar with all of the auwfc players, however, your description has given no hints as to who it may be.

[Benni Stogolo]

Should have put a lazy $20 on them... They seem
to be up 2-0 against the Roar... Hmmm i can taste
the humble pie now...

[Red-4-Life]

2-1 up at half time

and no im not gonna mention any names

[thats gold]

Now 2 all...

[Red-4-Life]

not a bad effort so far considering the season they have had.

Quigley and Wallace are the scorers

[thats gold]

I agree, not a bad effort considering. Let's just hope they can keep it at least there!

[Red-4-Life]

phone call later, will get every detail of the match

if they get a point thats excellent imo, big crowd next week to send the girls off would be fantastic!

[Red-4-Life]

19-5 shots in favour of Brisbane. Hang in there girls!!

[thats gold]

Final score 2 all. Well done to the girls! Does anyone know why Dumont didn't play in goals?

[John Cena]

well done girls.........great result

[Unretired]

They also rested Kate mcshae and courtney beutel as well.

But we drew with the team they put on the park........well done girls
Off of the bottom......

[Red-4-Life]
