CNL: Jamaica vs Canada - Saturday, November 18th - 10:30am EST / 7:30am Pacific - Kingston, Jamaica

This is what happens when Canada soccer releases the roster early..,

[El Hombre]

Damn you guys are hard to please. The CSA releases the roster the Friday before the guys travel: "What an amateur organization!"  The CSA release the roster early: "Now what am I supposed to do between now and the game?!?"

Maybe the CSA should make roster releases like advent calendars: every day for three weeks they reveal a new player.  Or maybe release a name every day for two weeks and then on game day the rest of the unknowns are the starting lineup.

Could you imagine if on the 23rd day, the name released was a dual like koleosho?!

How shitty would you feel opening up the last 2 days of your advent calendar to find them empty because we only called 21 out of a possible 23 players?

Or even worse, seeing Cavallini and Kaye behind those final two doors.

Like scratching a lottery ticket only needing a few letters/numbers to win millions only to get nothing by the end of it 🤣

The pitch at the Office doesn't look bad today. Let's hope there aren't any flash floods that would completely change this.

It looks thick and bumpy to me.

American ref crew. There will be VAR

Tori Penso has reffed the #CanWNT but not the Men as far as I know. She refs in MLS and was the ref of the Women's World Cup final.

What is the contingency in case the tropical storm postpones this game?

After that Honduras away game the contingency is to probably play through it

[Ottawafan]

Looks like the storm will be dragging its nuts across the country all day Friday and Saturday.

And Cristante, with Hargraves annouced as permanent coach on a 10 year contract.

I really mistrusted what she'd do at the Women's final but think in the end was okay. I don't think she can handle this level with the necessary physicality from both teams. Can't speak to the assistants, but maybe VAR will compensate their deficiencies.

Game time weather! 
 

[yomurphy1]

43mm in an hour... 

[CanadaFan123]

Love waiting months for a game to be played on a shitty pitch. So Canada soccer. 
 

Estonia away 2008 and Honduras away June 2022. Pain.

Is there any chance of moving up the start time to the afternoon, to avoid the worst of the storm?

That seems like too logical of a decision to actually happen.

If that holds, it would be worse than the amount of rain in Honduras in June 2022 I'd think.

Ya, CONCACAF is likely to CONCACAF!

Is Davies at the camp?

Or does he not want to be filmed wearing a CIBC logo?

Literally had the same thought.  He is barely in anything when he usually is all over the place with the posted clips.  I’m wondering if he is hurt and it’s under wraps.  Literally one of the only photos is a wrap up of an ankle.
