Holy crap the Roar lead Sydney FC 4-1 away from home.

Oops make that 4-2 in the 84th min

[SB]

4-3 in the 88th min. Surely not

[SB]

288 days since their last win. 4-3 the ROAR

[peterbread]

I couldn’t believe it when I saw it, great win for the Roar. I didn’t realise it had been that long since there last win. Hopefully there isn’t such a long wait for the next one.

I watched that game between the heat and the hurricanes. Great watch for sure. Nice to see the test players back out there for some of the games.

[peterbread]

Just realised Hore is back at Brisbane after his short stint away. Great to have him back and will make a difference in attack.

[SB]

So glad the Scorchers didn’t make the BBL finals this year. I want the Hurricanes to win but not last night against the Stars.

Waddingham officially a Portsmouth player now. I’ll check out their games and see how he goes. Let’s hope it’s not the usual of not playing and then back to the A league in a couple of years and wasted those key years and doesn’t fulfill his potential.

I don’t know if the players just aren’t good enough or lots of them are taking the first move to Europe and not waiting for the right move. Gone are the days of Viduka, Kewell, Neil, Emerton, Schwarzer and others playing at a very high level. I won’t mention the blue****e one here.

Haven’t Portsmouth get Yengi up front too? If so that could help him having another aussie to socialise & fit in.

[peterbread]

Yup he’s there. They’ve also got Jacob Farrell. I think Sammy Silvera was there for a bit on loan. They had another young Aussie there for a bit and have a good history of signing Aussie's.

Good call that it could help him settle in and get going. Let’s hope he can keep progressing as it’s a spot the national team is desperate for.

Oh man I’ve just seen this thread - what a brilliant idea

I’ve just come back from 2.5 weeks in Sydney over Xmas back to Oslo. I’ve realised just how much I miss cricket here, but not sure if that’s because of the game
itself or the fact that it means it’s summer

Welcome bro, come on in, make yourself at home, beers are in the fridge !

Great to see Sydney Thunder roll the Sixers last night. Great final coming up on Monday with Hobart Hurricanes & the Thunder.

[Sus]

Yep! Though we go see the Sixers every time we are in Sydney so my boys were disappointed that they lost, after being probably the best team in the league

But hey that’s a cup competition for you - don’t mind if the Hurricanes win on Monday night. Will be watching on a vpn here on Monday morning

[SB]

Davey Warner has transformed the Thunder. I hope the Canes win too. I hate how so many star players leave for the Indian IPL before the Final.

Happy australia day everyone
