I think we can do Sydney.

I thoroughly enjoyed that :) We put on a pleasant display I thought. Only let down by not scoring the 5 or 6 that we should have. Yes Brisbane were depleted, but regardless of the opposition, I just liked how we flowed out there! Great signs in preseason. And the back 3.. It scares me, and it was shaky tonight, but not as shaky as I thought it would be - by a long shot. Also, seems Boogs is looking for a promotion up the park :mrgreen:

seats aren't perfect but good enough I think. Too low and feel fragile even though they're bulky. A few mistakes with the black shadowing chairs too but that's something I think I can deal with, it'll just irk me lol.

Sydney away aye? At least you know that we'll be televised :P
I tweeted to @CoopersStadium about the shadowing on the seats. Might as well fix it now otherwise it'll never get fixed.

We were also missing a couple of players and at the end of the game when they were really chasing we had 5 youngsters on the park and brisbane still looked useless. Squad depth is part of being a great side, no team can depend on 11 players for a whole season, unless they are all Isiais ;)

Gotta remember that we were also missing Malik, Fabio and Goodwin, players who i expect will all be starters in a fully fit squad.

Absolutely, not sure who we'd take out to bring them all in though! Fabio for Mabil I can see. Playing the formation we did yesterday, Goodwin would replace Pablo which would give the team a different set of attributes (not a bad thing).
Malik for Isaias or McGowan?

All very exciting depth wise :D

Jimmy Jeggo and a pair of dirty Sanchez were the big difference between the teams. It was awesome :)

What was the issue? I must have missed it. Was it the AUFC or the COOPERS part?

The 'shadow' is cast to the bottom right of the lettering ... but some of the black seats across the bottom of the letters are positioned a bit too far to the left. Or that's how I saw it anyway. It was pointed out to me and now I won't be able to avoid noticing it!!! OCD sufferers, graphic designers and general pedants will not be able to comfortably attend the games...

Its just the C on the eastern stand has a different shadow to the ends. The black seat in the bottom left shouldnt be there. Under the top "hook" of the C, there's only 3 black seats instead of 4. I know its just silly but may as well have it perfect.

Yeah, I noticed that as well. Perhaps they had too many black seats they had to use.

Good game by us, Jeggo was great, Sanchez was up and about too. Brisbane sure could have done with Berisha last night. Good atmosphere at the ground too, an enjoyable night out.

Man, how small is Pablo?? He has the height of Jeronimo and the build of Mabil!

Mulvey said post match that the team “never got into a rhythm”, and that his side were affected by the strange atmosphere with two out of four stands at Coopers Stadium closed due to on-going renovation works.

if anyone's got a decent shot of the eastern stand... the 2 o's in "coopers" are not identical either. 1 has more white seats than the other.

should suggest to the club, that someone with a high attention to detail has a good thorough examination of all 4 stands.

I know it's seems like only a small trivial thing... but at the same time, it's not that hard to fix. so they may as well get it right.
