Big week for the Brisbane. Depending on their results, they'll be contending at the top - or in a scrap for a spot in the 6....

City pushing for a break towards the premiers plate, CCM trying to get moving again (3 points from their last 5 games).

My one chance at seeing the Nix live, and they better not * it up

Interesting game for 0-0. Nix probably needed the 3 points to keep pressing the top 6.

Adelaide go second, can stay there if Sydney, CCM and Roar all lose....

Both teams next play..... Melbourne City away

They ****ed it up, plain and simple. Oh well. Time to put everything into our two NZ games and then focus on next season.

Ridiculous decision. Never a penalty.

Never figured you to watch the A League mate (just haven't seen you post here before)

Jets had a few great chances after conceding the equaliser.

Rough call on the VAR penalty, but that's the A League for you.

City can pretty much are up the Premier's Plate tomorrow if we can beat Brisbane imo.

Been an extraordinarily brilliant season from my boys, especially after a sluggish start to the season.

Rudan might be in trouble after this match. 4-0 down against WSW and looking very disinterested. He’s escaped criticism so far but WU are looking bog ordinary considering their list.

Whole club feels like a shambles at the moment really.

I can’t see WU surviving in Melbourne for to long at this rate especially without a home. Maybe a relocation in future Geelong/Tassie or Canberra. Clearly it’s not working and Melbourne is to saturated for them to make any inroads as Gypsies.

 

[giggler99]

5-0 WSW!! Rudan must be put under the blowtorch.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Becoming a joke now, this agenda to hijack active supporters.

It's a nice easy Saturday/Sunday morning watch. Wasn't too fussed when I was In Australia but watch a fair bit now. And try to get to a game or two when I get back (when ever that will be).

Not bad for a team that started 2 W 4 L.....

 

[AJ_2000]

Ridiculous decision. Never a penalty.

Never seen an incident like it, then to have a similar incident crop up in the city game with another goal scoring opportunity (except the defender headed in to the attackers arm). - wait all day for a bus then 2 arrive.

Thankfully VAR decided to let the goal stand - Robbie Slater said "I want the right outcome over consistency". Decision yesterday was cactus - glad VAR didn't double down on their stupidity

 

[gaskin]

Yay. We won a game. If only we could keep a ******* clean sheet.

 

[AJ_2000]

9 points clear, 6 games to go - 9 points to clinch the premiers plate - if one of the chasing pack on 32 win out (highly unlikely).

 

[CakeEater]

Fair hit by Fornaroli there

 

[giggler99]

wow Berisha's lost it!

 

[Andonis1997]

Thanks, Perth

Thanks, Perth

Gotta look after our distance derby bros.
