I think they have a great chance to do it this time, look at the result vs. Brazil. Hoping they go with Onstad, just think he is very very consistent.

That is some dive for Jamaica, weren't they in the World Cup not long ago, I think they were the Reggie boyz?

Can't wait, any games on TV?

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

IMHO Canada currently has the best short passing midfield in CONCACAF.

Gone are the days of just simply humping ball 60 yards up the field in hopes of the opposition defender slipping or turning the ball over in hopes of getting a shot on net.

De Guzman and De Rosario are excellent, De Guzman is probably in with Dos Santos and the other bloke from Mexico as far as best players in CONCACAF

They have options...if they want to play with a target man in a 4-1-4-1 they can go with Friend up top, and he does well, or they can go 4-4-2 with adding others (Occean, Gerba, Radzinski (if he is not on the right wing) )
Hutchinson is growing in reputation and Bernier is playing well overseas as well.

Canada should be able to get out of this group...

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

As far as Jamaica, they have had a glut of players overseas either not get called or refuse to come...
they didn't qualify for the last Gold Cup after being bounced by St Vincent and the Grenadines.

I like the fact that Hume is playing. When they subbed him in against the US at the Gold Cup he changed the game by knocking the Americans around. He is a gritty and aggressive player. Great to have as a sub and change the dynamic of a game if Canada is getting passive.

Anyone up for a 4:30 meet and greet to watch the game?

Shark Club Langley for our South of River folks?

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

A quick heads up in regards to viewing this game LIVE:

I just caught wind of a new order here at work for webcasting the game for Sportsnet.

I'll post the player URL here once it is all set-up tomorrow (or you can just access from the Sportsnet home page as I see they are now promoting this as a webcast).

Cheers,

Regs.

So what you're saying is it's not on TV until tape delay at some future time?

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

Not on regular TV.

If you have Shaw and not the digital versions of the different regions and you tune into channel 22 you will see Pratt & Taylor, then the Yanks v Jays game, then the Canada v Jamaica game

If you have the digital versions (Which most sports pubs would have) you can catch the game on Sportsnet West or Pacific.

Or you can stream it on your PC

The tape delay is a few hours. The Yankees v Blue Jays game is on because Mr. Douche Torontonian Himself- Ted Rogers, owns both the Jays and Rogers Sportsnet and advertising/slamming down our throats meaningless baseball is more important than his broadcasting the CSA games (of which he has exclusive rights for some reason)

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

No, I'm not saying that :D

The game is LIVE on TV on the RSN DIGITAL channels. If you don't have the digital channels you can watch the game LIVE on the intraweb.

Or you can wait until later in the evening and watch it on Sportsnet Pacific tape-delayed.

If you still don't understand, please PM KNVB and he'll be able to sort you out.

After reading the most resent presser on the CSA website I am a little worried. Statements regarding "having trouble getting the guys together for training" and "roster still has some questions" makes me worry a bit. Plus playing in front of 35,000 Jamaican fans can be tough...

2-2 Draw though it pains me to say that. In true Canadian fashion we cannot make things easy on ourselves!

Re: [2010 World Cup Qualifier] Canada vs Jamaica August 20th

Roster:
1 | Greg Sutton | G | Hamilton, ON | CAN / Toronto FC
2 | Daniel Imhof | D/M | Smithers, BC | GER / VfL Bochum
3 | Mike Klukowski | D | Oshawa, ON | BEL / Club Brugge KV
4 | Kevin McKenna | D | Calgary, AB | GER / 1. FC Köln
5 | Adrian Serioux | D/M| Scarborough, ON | USA / FC Dallas
6 | Julian de Guzman | M | Scarborough, ON | ESP / Deportivo La Coruna
7 | Paul Stalteri | D/M | Brampton, ON | ENG / Tottenham Hotspur
8 | Jim Brennan | D | East York, ON | CAN / Toronto FC
9 | Tomasz Radzinski | M/F | Toronto, ON | GRE / Skoda Xanthi
10 | Ali Gerba | F | Montréal, QC | ENG / Milton Keynes Dons FC
11 | Richard Hastings | D | Vancouver, BC | SCO / Inverness CT
12 | Issey Nakajima-Farran | M | Calgary, AB | DEN / FC Nordsjælland
13 | Atiba Hutchinson | M | Brampton, ON | DEN / F.C. København
14 | Dwayne De Rosario | M/F | Scarborough, ON | USA / Houston Dynamo
15 | Patrice Bernier | M | Brossard, QC | DEN / FC Nordsjælland
16 | Rob Friend | F | Kelowna, BC | GER / Borussia Mönchengladbach
17 | Iain Hume | F | Brampton, ON | ENG / Barnsley FC
18 | Pat Onstad | G | Vancouver, BC | USA / Houston Dynamo

Interestingly enough, only 5 players do not play in Europe.
Only 4 BC Boys,

I'm hoping they go with:
--------------------Friend-----------------------
--------------------De Rosario-------------------
Radzinski------------------------------Hutchinson
--------------De Guzman------Imhof-------------
Klukowski------Brennan------Serioux-------Stalteri
--------------------Onstad----------------------

I would normally say they should start Nakajima-Farran on the left, but he is hurt from what I have heard/read. Therefore push De Guzman up and drop Imhof in the holding role...

Pass the pall around for fun.

I'm really hoping they run the Reggae Boyz ragged:cool:
