The Devonport Strikers are dreaming of a repeat of 2016 as they return to the National stage, travelling to take on Northcote City FC in the Round of 32 of the FFA Cup on Tuesday night.

This time they return knowing exactly how big of a deal it is, acutely aware ‘The Magic of the Cup’ is not just a tagline.
They might not have a home game this time around, but those two…
