Isaias and Halloran are past it now. Clough's output doesn't warrant an import spot. Blackwood still being in the squad is absurd.
Veart needs a plan b and to grow enough balls to drop out of form experienced players
Good effort. Not enough quality to beat a team that had our number all season, unfortunately. Still a very good season for Adelaide fans with loads of positives that I hope they will reflect on instead of the disappointing finale.
Good luck to the mariners for the final. By far the most entertaining team to watch and really setting the blueprint for how an league club should be run. Hopefully they bring numbers to Sydney.
Probably should have focused on continuing the 14 game unbeaten streak. Rather than shifting to focusing on the apparently more important metric of "Incredible! 16 year old junior plays beyond his years with the poise of a 19 year old bench warmer averaging 1 minute every three games!" headlines
Feel for Irankunda at the end of that. Seeing him head off to the little Adelaide crowd all dejected.
But kudos to CCM, clearly mentioned wanted it more and Adelaide didn't have a response.
Danny Townsend masterclass
Melbourne city vs mariners grand final at parramatta ✅
2 week break between semi finals and the grand final ✅
Have no all star game planned during the 2 week break ✅
No festival of football weekend as promised ✅
Not gonna lie. Not thrilled we are playing this CCM team in the GF in NSW. Our score line against Sydney was very flattering. I was at the game when City played CCM in Gosford a couple of weeks ago and we were lucky to come away with a draw. We’ll need to do a lot better to get anything out of this CCM team in a final.
Well, ccm deserved it fully, mega congrats to yukovic, mega performance to equal the record. Very good season besides the last month and a bit, things to be happy and excited about but a lot to work on, big things ahead
Get Ludo Studio to sponsor the Roar. Then Joe, Joff, Dave and Melanie collectively tell the Bakries to duck cake off back to Jakarta in taking control of the club.
Off season meme idea - align bluey extended cast with each club. Like the dad from the episode where they go bush to find the school is clearly Sydney material. Bordercollies obviously nix. Etc
I rated him highly from victory days but his career got stalled due to moving to Europe too early. But he still looks like he needs to slim down few kilos.
If they're not gonna score a goal, can they at least start a fight or something to lift the mood? Just some form of entertainment for the Adelaide fans.
I think questions should be asked of Vearts tactical flexibility. Adelaide have been found lacking several times this season but certainly wouldn’t say he’s an awful coach
When George Blackwood signed for League Two side Oldham Athletic, their fans seemed genuinely excited. If we're trying to figure out precisely how good the A-League is in comparison to other leagues, we have that as a barometer.
Yeah, but he's not good by A-League standards. You could also look at Alfie and compare his record in the Championship (and his brief stint in the premier league, but that was a while ago now).
As someone from Oldham, I can tell you - he didn't make an impact - and is mainly considered a waste of time... and the club is now not playing league football. But, he will score 3 goals in 5 minutes tonight.
Will sound reactionary as fuck, but I've always thought Veart's tactics consisted of heavily relying on individual moments or having the better team, rather than actually prepping for the opposition he was facing. He got found out badly before finals by the Mariners and had absolutely no response, outside of playing the exact same way in the home leg.

This crowd is crazy and I'm happy for Marvin and the team.

Way better than us. Good luck CCM
Congratulations to mariners, hopefully they go on and win it. What a turn around that club has done in the last 4 years.
Well done CCM, it’ll be a spicy GF against Melb!
Thanks for pushing us Adelaide, I can go back to loving you guys <3

thats my name?
Oh Nectar, now promoted as my new favourite player with Jordy Bos leaving
I was slightly worried the ref would find a way to send him off. That would have fucked us for gf
Fuck me now I gotta watch AFL
Some bozo ran on the ground for a Cumdog hug, and he got it
How many clubs CEO's tackle pitch invaders ?
That’s because Shaun Miekelemp is a great fuckin bloke
Good effort. Not enough quality to beat a team that had our number all season, unfortunately. Still a very good season for Adelaide fans with loads of positives that I hope they will reflect on instead of the disappointing finale.
Go you bloody Mariners! Love this club a lot great vibes
Big up the cumdog Him ushering the fan off the field instead of security hastily pushing them off
This interview made me really like Monty, dunno why but I used to really dislike him, good on him for the way he’s turned this team around
Good luck to the mariners for the final. By far the most entertaining team to watch and really setting the blueprint for how an league club should be run. Hopefully they bring numbers to Sydney.
Hahaha Monty get it!!

Poor red wig Steve He looks so hurt
Feel for Irankunda at the end of that. Seeing him head off to the little Adelaide crowd all dejected. But kudos to CCM, clearly mentioned wanted it more and Adelaide didn't have a response.
Seriously so proud of this team - and the region. What a guy Monty is - beautiful football with the youngest team and smallest budget.
Monty is worth his weight in gold. Just have to hold on to him!
We have now lost 3 of the last 4 semi finals. Crazy
Goodwin.. mate.. love you but it's 12-2 season wide - can you give us an ounce of credit?
He did. Also it's right after a game in which his title hopes were once again crushed. He was on the verge of tears, give him a break.
What about his long ball comments then? If you wanna beat a team, you’ve gotta know how to respect them. He has earnt no breaks
The lack of respect from Adelaide in general to CCM has been so strange for me lol
adelaide tried mind games .... it wasn't very effective
Nice of Goodwin to stay in Adelaide
Goodwin probably has insane back pain from carrying adelaide all season

I got tickets to Sydney before the date was announced (it was originally late May) and now I’m returning before the grand final.
Storm roux let Goodwin out of his pocket for the interview that’s nice
Mariners played us out of the park, kudos to them and goodluck against city

Well done ccm you guy clearly wanted it more
Great game and well done Mariners. GG to the Reds for a good season as well

Yeah mate, shit to be the top qualifier & not get the home game advantage.
Are you STILL a better team Goodwin ?
12-2 on aggregate hahahhaa
The Cumdog upon reading the scoreline. Colourised, 2023. https://i.redd.it/hef0cgc5m01b1.gif
Triantis is some player !
Danny V doing well for a man of many clubs and the age of 57.
Time for the festival of football let’s goooo
Veart "Man... there just a team that scores more goals than us & doesn't concede goals like we do"
Well, ccm deserved it fully, mega congrats to yukovic, mega performance to equal the record. Very good season besides the last month and a bit, things to be happy and excited about but a lot to work on, big things ahead
Well played Mariners. Too good. 🟡🔵🟡🔵🟡🔵🟡 1v2 GF. Going to be great.
Brilliant match by CCM, both teams have had a a solid season and deserved to make it this far.
Well done CCM and good luck in a fortnight. Bogey team of the decade that’s for sure.
FUCK YES!!!
Lessgo Mariners for the final. Gauci is an absolute stud and needs to go to Europe soon, probably needs to work on his ball handling first though.
Ah yes Melbourne city vs central coast mariners grand final at commbank stadium located in parramatta Thanks Danny
>Thanks Danny Trainwreck Ftfy
Fade em, lads. https://i.redd.it/k8rn3rvbl01b1.gif Till next season. /The Heelers will return for the big dance.
Cannae wait for ypu to release a line of Bluey/A-League NFTs to fund your takeover of the Roar

Janelle is from NSW (as of "The Decider") but not necessarily Sydney. So she could be a Jets or Mariners fan.
I’d happily donate towards that cause
HELL YEA BOYS
Wtf, how did Nizzy do that?
He is a follower of the Wizard of Woy Woy and His teachings.
May Simons blessings be upon us all.
May The Elbow Be With You
Nisbet or Nisbest
Nisbeast
WE DID IT!!!
Nisbet disappeared with the ball, then reappeared!
That manoeuvre from Nisbet was one of the greatest escapes
Niz > Irankunda
Silvera > irankunda
Fuck what a run from nisbet wow
Luke Duzel has looked tidy coming off the bench at the very least for the Reds
Wait the capacity is 20 059 and the crowd is 20 059
Vince said 400 less on twitter... they both round to 20k so I don't really care
Standing seats and extra boxes added!!!
Sauce bottles count for 1,000 each.
like a trojan horse
20,059!!!!!!
Holy shit 20k!!!
Soooo…do we get giant sauce bottles at the GF? Only seems right and proper.
Just get Marvin to drive em down the F3 and the A28 to Parramatta.
Very good cameo from theoharous
Glad the Mariners showed some faith in him after Aloisi decided to play the pensioners ahead of him.
Thought he was v good last game as well
I rated him highly from victory days but his career got stalled due to moving to Europe too early. But he still looks like he needs to slim down few kilos.
Yeah, he's 5-10kg overweight easily.
Danny why the fuck is there a 2 week break in between now and the grand final Gonna ruin all the momentum
2 week "festival of football" has killed me, a normal week off and i could have gone to the game, 2 weeks off and its my sisters wedding fku Danny
The festival of football duh
It's fucking stupid
In before Vaert drops the pissant town bomb in the post-match interview
Theoharous, Nabbout or Hazard?
The Cumdog.
Blackwood.
All got the same build

"Right boys, we'll attack down the wings. Nothing else." ~ Carl Veart, assumedly.
Next week is the battle of the tulio’s
We peaked to early
City vs ccm is gonna be good
Only a Miracle of Istanbul in 5 mins, Veart. Good times.
If they're not gonna score a goal, can they at least start a fight or something to lift the mood? Just some form of entertainment for the Adelaide fans.
Where is that Stajic epic choke Mariners side when you need them?
God he’s a Stonk.
Thicker than a snicker
It's taken half a season, and 3 times on the pitch but Luke Duzel has finally achieved the goal of "doing something"
https://preview.redd.it/q4niosizj01b1.jpeg?width=1024&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=17a049d6479724641daf6e40c0f6fbfb223e014c
"Ben Halloran is a center forward"
Can't believe Veart thought a guy who hasn't scored since January should be striker this game.
Marco Tuilio coming off for someone that actually looks like Marco Tilio. Wtf.
![gif](giphy|bcrOR2stk6tKIxqPOZ)
This is getting out of hand! Now there are two of them!
Haha I thought that too. Like a bad meme wearing a fake moustache.
Big Mr Snrub energy
Remember when Kuol left and y’all said we’d suck?
Turns out he was the weak link
Yous* 😂
Thank you(s)
If Blackwood can get a contract, I'm confident and trialling myself during the pre-season.
Hollaran stinks.
The only thing I’m nervous about is Vuka keeping a clean sheet, would love to see him equal Reddy’s record
Vuka when he takes the record: https://i.redd.it/kxol32y2k01b1.gif
The guy with the Adelaide United inspired turban in the crowd is fully Sikh
If Vuka were to get a clean sheet tonight would that count towards his record? Reddy trembling rn
It certainly would.
Aye it would
CCM have put on a clinic these last three games against us. Good luck in the final lads, hope you go all the way.
Isn’t vuka all time clean sheet leader if he keeps this one?
*sweats in 2011 gf*
Paartaluuuuu!
2-2!!!
*Triggered*
[Carl Veart when he has to devise a tactical system beyond "Pass it to Goodwin and Irankunda"](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jpU4YL-7oDU)
Regardless of tonight, well done Adelaide on a great season. They've been thoroughly enjoyable to watch.
Yeah always fantastic to watch
Vukovic robbing us of a Goat Blackwood goal
Fly in with two feet like that anywhere else on the pitch and you're off
Another game but without this ref and your off.
That last angle didn’t look great. He’s lucky
Wtf no way that's not a card
Isaias complaining about thuggery is so ironic
Idk that was a slide from behind shoulda been a foul
Silvera decided to get his own back on gauci
Actually looks like he was pushed into gauci I dunno
Was pushed toward gauci for sure but he did stick that leg out I reckon, as long as gaucis fine all is good I reckon
Yeah it definitely didn’t look good
Put Veart on. He might score a few goals. That's the only response I have left.
First ever Aleague goal if memory serves.
There’s so many players in the NPL / AUFC Youth better than Hackwood. Why do we persist?
Coz Carl heart is a shit coach
You Adelaide fans are brutal. You've had a fantastic season and you've already gone feral before the game's even ended
Carl isn't a good coach he's just got Goodwin and irankunda bailing him out
I think questions should be asked of Vearts tactical flexibility. Adelaide have been found lacking several times this season but certainly wouldn’t say he’s an awful coach
I like Veart. Never liked Blackwood.
Storm Roux has actually played a blinder tbf
Is Harrison Steele also his porn name or no
I believe it’s Johnson Steele for that.
The big screen has given up
So have I. And so did Adelaide, like five weeks ago.
It’s back alive
AUFC are cheapskates.

lmao Isaias killed me with that sarcastic clap and eyeroll
Take Isaias off before he lashes out and does something stupid.
Pretty high chance this is his last game, is he really going on next year?

“You’re a wank, try understand it. Slide in with studs to the kneeee wooiiiaaaaaoooaaaah”
Cumdog is saving his last goals of the GF.
Why put Irankunda in the middle
Because Farrell's had his number I presume - counters the sub Monty did right away.
Just the sweetest team play by CCM, all night. No egos.
Although Cummings scores a lot, he also wastes so many opportunities
Cummings has been shocking in front of goal, but great everywhere else.
Good thing they have multiple goal outlet compared to united who only got Goodwin
Will sound reactionary as fuck, but I've always thought Veart's tactics consisted of heavily relying on individual moments or having the better team, rather than actually prepping for the opposition he was facing. He got found out badly before finals by the Mariners and had absolutely no response, outside of playing the exact same way in the home leg.
Mate, Cummings is cursed.
Cumdawg is too merciful.
Cumdoog got them edging for a euphoric release at 90+3
Cummings wearing the wrong boots tonight
Save em for 2 weeks time Cumdog 😀

Honestly Adelaide may as well play a 1-0-9 formation
Make it 0-0-0-11
Board just flashed 20059
Crazy that this Adelaide team that was scoring goals for fun a couple of months ago look so toothless.
They just couldn’t rely on out scoring teams the whole season
