A-League Men Round One - A Whole New Era begins

[Colonial]

Nice goal by Brisbane.

I really hope fans from other clubs turn up in round one. After being locked inside our homes for the better part of a year I expected a hell of a lot more fans at tonight's game.

 

[Colonial]

Geez an offside goal.

 

[craigos]

Ummmmmm, that looked like it warranted a deeper look.

Campbelltowns game has been moved to Newcastle as the pitch is trashed.
Storms tomorrow makes me think the Sydney Derby won’t sell out but should be a good crowd.
Victory are playing in Westerns ground in Geelong.
Newcastle is a basket case.
Perth are supposedly selling a lot of tickets so a possible.

so probably 2 games will get a good crowd.

Wow that replay shows it was close.

Glory said earlier today there are only 3k tickets left for tomorrow night.

Victory first home game a Sunday 4:05pm game wont help our numbers either.

What’s with all the seagulls

I don't care about the disallowed goal, this ref has been unashamedly pro Brisbane all of the 2nd half.

Anyhow unconvincing win to the new Kings of Australian Football, but 3 points is 3 points.

Hope they're double vaxxed. City Captain and Coach are the biggest faux tough guys in the league.

Jamo is alright but Kisnorbo has always seemed like a knob to me.

Yeah no.

 

[gaskin]

Macarthur v Wellington has been moved to Newcastle and will be part of a double header there. The pitch at Campbelltown has been deemed to not be at an acceptable standard.

Pitch issues force Macarthur match switch to Newcastle

Bulls' opening game moved to McDonald Jones Stadium

Jamo is a massive flog.

 

[Andonis1997]

Looked tight but as per the ground markings I reckon the linesman got it right.

DERBY DAY

Sydney Is Skyblue

 

[Colonial]

Well done to glory fans

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Can someone tell me why the Tinpot Melbourne clubs derby and Sydney derby are fixtured at the same time ?

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Sturridge's signing probably would have been a factor but still well done Glory fans.

I find it kinda weird too. Think it could be to get the most out of the audience from both platforms one match is live on 10 and the other is streamed on Paramount Plus. Don't know just my thinking.

I miss the 5:30 pm Saturday twilight kickoff/game too although granted the Jets v Mariners game had to be rescheduled.

looking at the fixture I think it normally goes

Friday night x1
Saturday afternoon/twilight x1
Saturday night x2 maybe x3 if matches are in Perth on Saturday night
Sunday Afternoon/twilight x2

I think they are sticking to this formula.

Yep. I think having no more home games this side of the new year played a part as well.

Fair enough, I think they could have saved Will You ever Build a Stadium v Victory game till tomorrow afternoon, instead of clashing with probably game of the round, the Sydney Derby.
