Mid-week madness with 3 games tonight and a 5pm kickoff (might be a bit warm for them).

Let's see if WU can keep up their hot streak at the top of the table.

The over/under on VAR delays tonight is 19 minutes....

It's a terrible time for kickoff and 30+ degrees, perfect combination for 3 figure attendance

 

[giggler99]

Another 1-0 win to Western United!

******* Sturridge has done his groin. Giving Castro the flick to get Studge is looking like one of the worst decisions the club has ever made.

Doubt he’ll last the season now

We aren't playing finals so if it is a long term injury I think both parties might just cut their losses.

I was very ok with Castro going, the dude scored stacks of goals against us. Was an odd call, even though he was getting on in age, he still had great touch which is pretty rare in this comp

Glory made the call because Castro would not give the club a yes or no answer as to whether he wanted to come back despite having plenty of time to do so. Once Sturridge was available and willing the club pulled the trigger and basically said "too bad Diego. You had plenty of time and were dicking us around."

Sturridge is a joke. Good on Perth taking the risk on a big name but FMD, anyone could have season eternally injured player will be injured lots.

Game has been moved to Melbourne on Monday night at AAMI park

 

[giggler99]

Another postponement due to the heavy weather in Sydney

 

[Colonial]

Dominating wasted chances and an own goal against the run of play. Ffs that’s the story of Sydney’s season

 

[Camros2]

How is Farrell still on the ******* field, three cardable fouls so far, * this ref

 

[Camros2]

And Kitto gets a yellow for a perfectly legal tackle go figure

 

[Camros2]

Well deserved lead, what a strike by Irankunda

 

[giggler99]

Boom thats power!

2nd win in a row by City where we got very lucky, but At least we got it on our own merits instead of ref howlers (which is how never want to win games)

Matt Leckie take a bow, what a Sue Perb strike.

Really sticking it up his critics lately.

To be fair he deserved the criticism, good to see he’s come good at last.

This is Leckie's winner for City. Call me harsh, but on replay, I think Redmayne could have saved that, but still happy to take the 3 points.

Off to browse Cove forum for melts lol

Great finish and inch perfect. Redmayne needed top be another inch taller to reach that.
