Rather than having a cup competition throughout the season (FA Cup type), The A-League runs an offical
Pre-Season Cup.
Here's how we went in the group stage - I chose players based on condition (95% and above only if possible) and their pre-season form (or lack of)
These are the 2 formations I'll use depending on who's playing :
352 Golden 442 Golden
1st up, we had the Newcastle Jets.

2nd match was against Sydney Utd.

Thought
this was a bit odd - I was still pretty disappointed... Notice that they're upset about 1 that he missed too...
On that - somehow he is our best with a stat of 8!!...
Match 3 was against the Queensland Roar.
Roar - Overview Roar - TeamStats
By Match 4 we'd qualified for the semi-final - made a few changes accordingly to play the Central Coast Mariners.

So here's how the table ended up.
Group Stage - Final
We've been drawn against Adelaide Utd in the semi-final.
So, following the teams first 4 competitive matches;
Luke Swinston leads the scoring with 4
Steve Fisher leads in assists with 3
Jack Birkinshaw has the highest average rating with 8.00
We have had 4 different man-of-the-matches - Stephen Carlisle, Scottie Alexander, Jack Birkinshaw and Luke Swinston
Hereare the stats for the whole squad.
In injury news - Gonzalez's knock isn't bad - he'll be out for 6 days with a bruised head.
- Fricker will be back in around 2 days following his sprained wrist.
- George Robson who's yet to make an appearance is currently at 90% and should feature soon.
