The whole team's performance has been so woeful that you can't pin the reason on a handful of players. don't know that we can take naything from this game except that there's one less to go
Sure we can. Joe's been good, Zerrett's been Zerrett's, and Parish, Francis, Langford and Laverde have all been very solid.
 
Was that the Dempsey redemption shot? Spent about ten minutes on the bench before after his opposite-of-purple patch.

Daniher wearing braces according to ABC radio... Had his front teeth all but knocked out at the start of Q1? Perhaps he kicks better when distracted by pain...

Francis classy. Zerrett doing well. Like the look of Langford. Can't pick the defence but it's ****ed. Feels like we're playing short but yeah. Need to watch the replay. Like Laverde but he's not at his best. Zaka. Well.. Zaka. Apparently playing forward to escape the tag but still. Ick.

Radio reckons it's the Leuenberger Cup... More like the Parish-Mathieson cup?

Ergh.

Agree that certain players have played well (and that's why I'm still watching this car crash of a game) but, in terms of delisting etc, you can't say it's X, Y or Dempsey's fault we've played so badly. Most players are confidence players and when there is a stupid mistake after a poor judgment call which leads to such a poor performance, it's a team failing, not attributable to the individuals who played badly.

Daniher's got 4.1 today. How is he responsible for others' inaccuracy?
Maybe missing one right in front? How many of them have been set shots dossy.

Keep defending the players. This is one of the most disgraceful days in our history yet you go on and on with your forthright rubbish.
