Fade-out? we still kept a pressing #2 team to 0 in the second half.
NABBOUT is certainly THE KEY.
Not only what he does himself is brilliant, but he allows JMc to shine.
How do we fit in Luna and O'Neill ?

Still kept them to 0 in the second half correct, but the consensus here seemed to be that the second half was meh. Obviously the damage was done in the first. Didn’t mean to say that it was a poor second half, but I would agree that it wasn’t anywhere near as promising as the first.

Nabbout has been unreal. It is clear now how much we lacked someone of his quality in that position last season. Wales was the answer to the question that nobody was asking.

Luna and O’Neill will certainly have to work hard to get a spot back in midfield. I wouldn’t even be thinking about dropping Griffiths right now.

Apparently we kept them to 2 shots on target for the entire game. Great team defence.

I love Griffiths in the team. Nearly as important as Nabbout.

s**t that was clinical by J-Mac !!! You love to see it.

 

[pantskyle]

How are we only one up.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

All over them. We need another goal before halftime

 

[Boultzboi]

Should be at least 2 up.


I still can't believe the Bouzanis was picked ahead of Birighatti

Fantastic.

 

[Elmer_Judd]

Brilliant strike by Atkinson. Want at least one more goal to put these ***** to bed.

 

[pantskyle]

Nabbout needs one.

Not as good tonight but still a fantastic win given the conditions and opposition. What a great turnaround.

 

[Metalcrusher]

McClaren is on fire.

 

[Metalcrusher]

Nabbout is so so dangerous with the ball.

 

[Bont2Bruce]

Didn't feel even slightly nervous tonight when CCM attacked our goals, great defensive work.

 

[Borough Blood]

WSW Friday, bring it on.

 

[Boultzboi]

Friday will be a classic.

I reckon we'll win the league this season

Kisnorbo has then so well-drilled to play out from the back and not go direct unless there is a clear wide option. The amount of times they will play 4-5 quick, one-touch passes which gets them through the initial opposition press, meaning they generally then have a 3-on-3 or 4-on-4 in attack. It makes such a difference when you have centre halves like Good, Griffiths and Reis who can play the ball.

Metcalfe should be in line with a Socceroos call up too - there's a lot of Rogic about him.

Rhali Dobson sent off a winner on and off the pitch

In her final game before retirement Rhali Dobson has ridden a wave of emotion to score a goal, lead her Melbourne City to a 2 - 1 win over the Perth Glory and accept her partner Matt's wedding proposal all in the same night.

t.co

Well done Rhali. Also lets win tomorrow night

We need this win for me and Tony Lynn 15 ...

Carlton looking like cactus again this season, City being decent and Victory being poo is my salvation (least amongst my mates)

I much prefer A League games (in person) to AFL atmosphere is so much better

Plus Active Support is back (finally !l)

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Bugger!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

This is better. Nabbout is on fire!

 

[pantskyle]

Some kind of form.

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Best game I have ever seen Noone play.
