My brother's about to start playing World of Warcraft - Round 10, Altona Magic vs South Melbourne

There is a park that is known
4 the face it attracts
colorful people whose hair
On 1 side is swept back
The smile on their faces
It speaks of profound inner peace
Ask where they're going
They'll tell U nowhere
They've taken a lifetime lease
On Paisley Park

Prince, Paisley Park


Ah Prince, you crazy mf. Would he have adopted the name Paisley Park for the song and recording studio if he knew of the Australian soccer complex next to the oil refinery? I guess we'll never know the answer to that question. Will South ever earn a point out there? Turn up on Monday to find out.

Last time they met

Round 23, 2007, at Paisley Park

Altona Magic 1 South Melbourne 0

Thoroughly dull match, in which a defensive lapse in concentration saw the Magic take all three points. Michael Curcija was the goalscorer.

Preview
Altona almost without doubt now are the biggest spending team in the league. It's only got them barely in the six so far, but with some of the absolute quality they have in there, and the fact that they've never dropped a point to South in the VPL regular season, means they should consolidate their position. So far this season South has gone L, L, W, L, L, W, L ,L, W, so that means a loss is due here. Or a draw. But we won't win. The end. Not much of a preview, I know, but I'm feeling sick at the moment. And only two days before the Eels show at The Palais. Sucks bad.
