As the Sydney girls put in a performance even Rooster Cogburn would be proud of, the boys suffered some post derby blues and lost to 9 men in Sydney's South-West. Michelle 'Laila Ali' Morris & Jono 'sniffles' Finger take you through the Sky Blue Week that was

Outrageous. Sensational. Triumphant. A rollercoaster ride of emotions took place last Saturday evening for the third and final derby of the season. The fellas were immense and did us proud. This week's ep sees the return of Jamie 'All Sides of the Harbour' (ASOTH) Dunkin, with Michelle and Sean taking on hosting responsibilities. We dissect the der…

Two red cards, one draw in the west and a tough loss up in Newy. Ooft. It was not a good week for all us sky-blue supporters and lovers. Putting that behind us and looking forward to the third and final derby of the season with 3 games to go in the season. A big game for a variety of reasons. A must win. Michelle, Jono and Sean go around the ground…

Our women's team, although gallant in defeat, misses out on etching themselves in the history books, while our men deliver a stellar performance with a couple of sumptuous goals against the Mariners. Tune in for insights into our impressive youth team against European academy heavyweights and a very perplexing "Who's that Sydney FC player?"…

The Phoenix rose in the men's game, coming from a goal down to nab all three points but our Sky Blue women belted four past in their game with Cortnee scoring a brilliant brace to claim victory and leave the Nix women wallowing in ashes. Looking ahead, our men will be keen to get back to winning ways, and our women are sitting atop the ALW table wi…

Brilliant. Exciting. United. Relentless. Super Sydney FC. Just some ways to describe a Saturday night that will live long in our memories due to wins from both our Men's and Women's teams over the scourge of the West. We love a 6 point weekend! Capo Fantastic, Winston Getry, also joined us for a wonderful chat about all things Sky-Blue and active s…

Don't adjust your dials...don't be alarmed...this week we have a youthful and exotic flavour to the podcast. With Jules busy rising up the coaching ranks, Sean with one-week calf injury and international duties for Jono, Michelle and Nic have undertaken the hosting duties this week in a very admirable fashion. A massive weekend of fixtures ahead as…

Near apocalyptic weather wiped out any chance of the women's game finishing in Canberra while four hours away at Allianz, the men's game saw a solid win over Adelaide. Are we seeing a new dawn, a new centreback pairing, a Gowser/Wilko 2.0 in the making? Jake Girdwood-Reich and Hayden Matthews are looking the goods and playing beyond their young, te…

Lowes bought Hawaiian shirts, pool noodles and even an inflatable doll affectionately named Jasmine made their way to Gosford to witness our boys in blue claim victory in a resounding win against the Mariners. But alas, our girls in blue, despite their dominance could find the back of the net against City in a game ending in a 0-0 stalemate. Jimmy …

Caspers and Vine combine to lift our sky-blue girls to a resounding win against Perth. Cortnee bagging a brilliant brace and Maddie scoring a sublime goal so effortlessly. However, our men squandered a two-nil lead in Hobart against Western. The OG's Jono and Sean with our own star girl, Michelle, dissect the recent SFC happenings with reviews, pre…

A couple of refereeing howlers marred the two Big Blues leaving the SFC collective with only 2 points when it could have been much more. Despite the two monumental stuff ups, the SFC playing collective outplayed their opposition and can hold their heads high. Jono, Sean and Michelle go around the grounds, review the Aussie Day games and look ahead …

Our sky-blue men kicked off the weekend's fixtures with a resounding 4-0 win over the Jets. Maxy dazzled us with his titty shimmy bagging a double whilst Woody and Lolley got in on the scoring action too. Our sky-blue women however, snatched victory with a piece of 90+ minute magic thanks to youngster Zara Kruger. And it would be remiss of us not t…

Our sky-blue girls headed to Gosford for the first time in close to two decades, where they walked away with another draw, and our sky-blue men won their third game in a row—a first since 2021. Michelle, Jono and Sean dissect the weekend's games, look ahead to United round and go around the grounds. "Super fan" Michelle is left bamboozled with "Who…

A double header Friday proved fruitful for our men and women in sky-blue bagging 3 points each. Whether it was Grant scoring the opener, Lolley playing like a bat out of hell, the Hawk returning or Jynaya bagging the winner. It was pretty, pretty, pretty good. The OG's Jono, Sean and Jules go around the grounds, review and preview and Jono is stump…

A quieter week than usual in SFC Land this past week. The women had a decent result away to top of the table Perth, though coulda shoulda walked away with the win as they were easily the better team. Our men slumped to another loss, another big blue defeat, with Fornaroli up to his usual tricks in front of goal. Nic, Michelle and Sean dissect last …

Michelle and Jono sum up the last couple of weeks in Sydney FC land as we talk Sydney Storms, Uffyball, Ante's genius and super over-used "you can't keep 'em all" chat rears it's ugly head. Michelle also puts Mackenzie Hawksby out to pasture.

The evening couldn't have started better with one of the best tifo's the Cove has produced. To see it beautifully cascade down the stands from the Paddington end of the ground gave those in the stands goosebumps and only added to the theatre, the drama and atmosphere. Unfortunately, the result didn't reflect the tifo and we lost to our bitter cross…

We're back after a one-week soft tissue injury to recount the start of the Talay era and our girls' time in Uzbekistan. Both teams have shat on their respective Adelaide United opponents in their most recent games, with a combined score of 8-2. We dissect the first of this season's derbies and Michelle struggles but eventually comes good with her "…

A treat for you after Sydney pummelled Adelaide, Jono caught up with Championship winner and foundation player Iain Fyfe. What a guy. Loves Sydney. Absolute pleasure talking to Fyfey. After a week hiatus due to torn hammies and groins, jetlag and Michael Jackson biopic screenplay writing, we'll be back next week to preview the derby and discuss Tal…

After many calls for CoricaOut, Corica is now out. Steve Corica departs from the club after a 19 year association. From premiership-winning player to premiership-winning coach. Although our form and results were unbecoming and uncharacteristic of the club, Bimbi will be remembered as a champion player and a coach who achieved great success in the f…

We left Brissy with our tails between our legs in what was a horrendous display of football. Changes need to be made, there needs to be a hunger and a desire to be better and to want the game more than your opponent. Post-match comments from our coach don't help either and are unbecoming of a leader who is supposed to inspire his players. The OGs J…

We woke to a sad old Monday due to a couple losses for our men's and women's sides. But not too panic as the men turn their attention to playing the Roar away in Brisbane and our women ready themselves to compete in the AFC Club Championship in Uzbekistan. Jono, Nic and Sean review the weekend's games, bask in the newest addition of "Who's that Syd…

Our girls in sky-blue kicked off their 23/24 campaign with a comfortable win in front of a record crowd. Our hearts collectively broke with the news of our fearless leader, Nat Tobin. The men kick off their season campaign in a big blue this Saturday evening at home. With Nic busy writing a Michael Jackson screenplay, Michelle is traveling around E…

Congratulations to the players and all on the staff for our club's triumph in winning the Australia Cup. A terrific 3-1 victory over the Roar at home is what we hope will put us in good stead this ALM season. Just the fellas in this episode take you through the review of the Cup final, a preview of the women's first round ALW derby and Nic is pushe…

It's all about our all-conquering SFC women's team, from discussing the likely starting 11, debating who we think will be their breakout star to who we're most excited to see out on the pitch and even who we believe, at this stage, will be their player of the season. Also, Michelle talks to her best friend, Cortnee Vine, in an exclusive chat about …

Our Australia Cup campaign has reached its final destination: Allianz Stadium, Grand Final vs Brisbane Roar. Well done to the lads on a terrific campaign which has seen us beat the most recent NPL NSW Champion and recent ALM Champions ...pretty, pretty, pretty good. We dissect the semi-final and discuss this Saturday's finale with the Roar, as well…

A stifling hot day last Sunday saw our Leichhardt magician, Anthony Caceres, continue to weave his magic as our sky-blue boys had a resounding 3-0 win against Western United. Also, the 23/24 home and away kits were announced to some fanfare, though recycling isn't always welcome. But thanks to Rebel Sports, the third kit was leaked and that has cau…

Our sky-blue fellas came, saw and conquered APIA last Wednesday night in almost monsoonal conditions at Leichhardt Oval. Caceres weaving his magic, Kealey continuing to impress on the flank, double the Gi/urd at CB and Bratts steering his side. Rumours abound about who might be joining them ahead of the 23/24 ALM season as well. Our sky-blue women …

We've added the final piece of our hosting puzzle for this season. Our new thriller of a host moonwalked his way onto the pod this week and we look forward to his "off the wall" contributions to Sky Blue Stories. Season 23/24 fixtures for men and women were released recently, more comings and goings especially for our women's team and we preview ou…

We're all suffering from a strong case of football fever as we're in the midst of the women's World Cup so there's no better time to get back onto the pod to talk all things Sky Blues. There's been a mass exodus across our men's and women's teams since the end of last season, some signings (at least for the men's team) and a new captain has been an…

The fellas and shiny new recruit Michelle Morris run their sky-blue magnifying glass over and reminisce about past and present Sydney FC women's players who are taking part in this year's football World Cup for their respective countries. So many great names, fond memories, and some names that we believe were unlucky to not take part in this year's…

The sun has set on another SFC season. The girls well and truly have their feet up after a doubly triumphant season, the men are now headed to the airport for their end of season trip whilst our young NPL fellas are at the halfway point of their season. Sean, Jono and Jules dissect last Friday's 2nd leg loss to City and do a massive women's and men…

Fan favourite Anthony Caceres joins us on the pod this week to talk about all things SFC, football, his career and this Friday's 2nd leg semi final. We go around the grounds, review and preview recent fixtures for our men and NPL boys too. A usual suspect makes their way back into our villains this week and we're excited to talk about Alex Baumjoha…

How good was last Saturday night?! A game, a performance, a triumph that will live long in our memories. We went into enemy territory and came out victorious sending WSW packing out of the ALM finals. Delicious. Listen in as we dissect the game in-depth and preview the first of two legs against Melbourne City starting this Friday.…

They came, they saw, they conquered! A massive congratulations to our sky blues girls for securing the double this season with an emphatic win in the grand final. You're amazing and we're all very proud of you. And if that's not enough...the men had a resounding win in their final game of the season setting up a tantalising elimination final with W…

A terrific win on the road in Brisbane saw our sky-blue men secure a place in the top 6 the ALM finals. But the highlight of the weekend has to go to our sky-blue women, with thanks to a Madi Haley winning goal, has seen them reach a 6th grand final in a row. Be sure to get to CommBank Stadium on Sunday afternoon from 4pm to cheer them on!…

Our men had a superb win over the Glory sending them straight to the departures lounge back to Perth. Alas, our women had a disappointing loss to Western United in their qualifying final but they will live to fight another day. Jono is still away galavanting around Canada but rest assured Sean and Jules have the sky blue week covered thanks in part…

They came, they saw, they conquered! Congratulations to each and every player, member and cog of the SFC A-League Women's team for claiming the premier's plate. You've done yourself, your club and all fans of the club very proud. An incredible achievement! The girls clinched the title with a resounding 4-0 win over the Jets. The men snatched a draw…

David beat Goliath last week with our young SFC fellas beating last season's NPL champions, Blacktown City, with a superb Harbas free kick. Our girls had a resounding 3-0 win over Adelaide edging closer to the premier's plate. We chat with Alex Reilly about the Sydney FC Foundation ahead of this weekend's Memorable Experience Program. And, we previ…

As the most successful club in ALM history we hold ourselves to a higher standard than the rest. What took place last Saturday night should never be repeated and fans and members of the club deserve more. The men were out played, the women had a disappointing last minute draw but the shining light were our young fellas of the NPL who had a brillian…

Our fortunes and desire for 3 points were dashed not once but twice at the hands of the Wellington Phoenix in our men's and women's fixtures. Well done to our young fellas for back to back wins for the first time this season. Jono and Sean preview a massive weekend with the 3rd and final derby of the season and our women have a top four clash with …

Men win + Women win + NPL win + Canberra United cheating and having their points awarded to us= 12 points! Woohoo! The band is back together, the three amigos of Jono, Jules and Sean dive into around the grounds, reviewing and previewing the mens and NPL games and share our heroes and villains.

A sky blue favourite, our midfield maestro Mackenzie Hawkesby joins us on the pod this week. A special stand alone A-L Sky Blue women's episode because a) they're in table topping form and b) it is International Women's Day. We wax lyrical about Macca as we talk all things sky blue with her. Also, our around the grounds, review and preview, heroes …

The girls got the job done across the ditch thanks to Rachel Lowe's first goal of the season. City reminded us why they're the best in the league but Diego left us in awe with a stunning free kick. Jono unfortunately failed a last minute fitness test but Jules in back on the pod. He's finally released from house arrest, I mean father duties to co-h…

An underwhelming draw on the weekend but we extended our unbeaten run to four games. Jules still out on baby duties and Jono interstate, Sky Blue Stories this week is honoured to have Nic Rojas sub on and share in the hosting duties. We revel in Vine bangers and 2 more years of Maxy, ponder what the 13 venues in Sydney the men have played at are, d…

Women win, tick. Men win, tick. Youth boys win, tick. Happy days being a SFC supporter after last weekend's results. There was Lolley with a volley, 2 sausage rolls, Vine down the line and the inevitable JK. Congratulations to Jules for becoming a dad in the past week. Lots of love to him and his growing family. With that being said, Jono and Sean …

Who doesn't love beating Melbourne Victory? Two great games and superb individual performances from the likes of Max, Joe, Princess and Cortnee saw us head back into our home state with 6 points in the (Lolley) bag. With an imminent arrival of a new addition to the Baumbach family, we were graced with the presence of the one and only Michelle Morri…

An 86th minute Diamanti goal saw us leave the apple isle with nothing. Not even with Wilko back in the side could help us return to the winner's circle. But we must, we only can put that result behind us and soldier on to this round's Big Blue. Both our men and women are determined to head back over the border with 3 points each. Jules is out with …

Hopefully the lights going out at Macedonia Park last Saturday night won't end up being symbolic of our season. Despite a sublime Lolley goal and good ol' Grant getting on the score sheet, it still proved to be a frustrating loss of two points. Jono, Jules and Sean go around the grounds, review the Glory game and preview our trip to Hobart. Jono an…

The end of our Wellington game can only be seen to be believed...less said about it the better. We celebrate the wonderful Princess Ibini for joining the 100 appearances club and to do it at the one club is truly amazing. The boys are back from some festive time off, working off the Xmas food and beers to go around the grounds, review and preview o…
