Anyone else think if that was an Aussie ref and a mariners challenge it would have been a red?

Yeh, me too..

Trailing leg got him in trouble. Under a regular A League ref we would be playing against 10 men. I hope the other refs could see the first half and take a leaf out of the new refs book.
WSW should of had 2 yellows and a red last year.

We’re the better team so far by a decent margin. Brain fart by fox but you can’t allow that free header either.
Don’t know how DDS didn’t get that free kick outside the box and that tackle on Duric should have been a yellow too.

Lastly are we wearing our main kit with an away sponsor for nostalgia reasons? Or is our 3rd kit incredibly lazy?

My overall impression of the Iranian is that he has let alot go, whether that's because I'm used to retarded Australian ref's or he is missing things... I don't know

The game is there for us to take. Good chance with fitness just need a bit more ball security and we should be able to keep them under the pump.

Good first half, except for Fox indecision. Our fitness and conditioning looks so much better than it has for years and certainly much better than theirs at this stage. Hopefully that will tell towards the end and get us home. COYY!

Was a heavy studs up tackle, definitely a red. But the ref hasn’t given much so I wasn’t surprised he didn’t send him.
Baccus should’ve had a cheese on duric too.
And a few definite fouls have been let go.

I’d get silvera running at that wanker georgevski.

He's had a couple of mistakes at this point but overall I think the ref has been has and shoulders above anyone else inn three league so far tbh.

He's been terrible. Every hack from behind has been let go, the challenge on dds, the early flying challenge, georgevski....he blows his whistle loud and often but his foul recognition is non-existent.
Sending every attack to Oar isn't working great- especially as we lose momentum by sending the ball to the corner. I don't think Oar is doing all that well. Dds doing well. Fox needs to remember how dangerous corners are. Happy so far though

Despite what Brenton speed said, and kossie pulled him up straight away, Dylan didn’t intentionally give away that corner.
End of. Has been good otherwise.
