Wow what a goal.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

Brilliant stuff.

Bozanic patrolling the midfield. So much confidence on the ball thoughout the squad right now.

 

[Kreuuuzeurns]

FINKLER!!!!

 

[Zidane98]

What a dirty prick Odonovan is. And how did Williams fail to produce a red card. He's known for pulling out reds far too easily.

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Lol O'Donovan should be off. Ridiculous only to be a yellow for that challenge.

 

[Milanista28]

Can play these boys. And Howard doing all the little things well, Good lad.

 

[Bulldog1954]

Jamie Young needs to be investigated for match fixing

 

[moomba]

He has seemed a tad ... ahem ... erratic tonight

 

[lion4life]

Can we please replace Young with the youth keeper on the bench

 

[Flapjacks]

Jamie Young is a giant potato.

 

[Filthy Sanchez]

Haha what a s**t game. Hope JVS gets sacked regardless, it's about performances not just the result

 

[imadodgyumpire]

Heard some of aloisi's post match interview. His presence is starting to grain on me. Waffled on about MC style when it's unnecessary.

If it wasn't for broich's pass, roar would've lost. That was outstanding!

So what's Arnold gonna bitch about this week

So what's Arnold gonna bitch about this week

The weather is probably odds-on isn't it?

I didn't see much of the first half, but the second half seemed pretty low key without many good chances.

Do I win a prize?

I'm no fan of Arnold, but he's right on this occasion. I can't see any reason why the game couldn't have been moved to a later kick-off.

The reason is obvious. The A League has a tv deal with Fox Sports and this game was in the weekends premier time slot, thus it couldn't be moved.

Whether that reason is valid is a complete other question, but let's not pretend Sydney are the only team who've had to deal with this over the last 10 years, and lets not pretend Glory and its fans aren't the biggest conspiracy theorists in the league when it comes to why they don't get the 7.30 Friday and Saturday slots.

 

[Billy ray]

Not sure why they even have lights at nib stadium.

 

[Big Sauce 21]

I hate that siren at Adelaide games

 

[hey shorty]

All the ball and no reward again, the rssult is going to be painfully obvious here. Shame for Ozzie and his injury but he's been trash and its good for Elsey to have a run around.

Mells underwhelming but young, Isaias not himself and Bruce is himself.

Looking like a 1-0 loss with Carney fluking a shot

 

[SloaneysDanger]

7 weeks in and still no wins. Can't even manage to score against Newcastle at home despite dominating once again.

A loss next week will be fun against the Victory then Perth at home after that our best chance to win. If we can't win that then I don't know what to think about this club any more.

 

[hey shorty]

A clean sheet is a good start but without clinical finishing we will go nowhere. Its a pity Malik went down because that game was setup for Pablo to pinch it.

Also does David Carney have the most kickable face in the game ??

 

[SloaneysDanger]

Carney is a twat. Everyone wants to punch him.

 

[nobbyiscool]

This was by far and away the worst round of the season quality wise. Victory played a good first half on Thursday, and Wanderers/Nix was a pretty entertaining game - but the rest of this round was total arse

Fingers crossed Victory/Reds is a good game next week. I'm really looking forward to it after not being able to go on Thursday night.
