Australia Cup

Penalty to Adelaide

$hitty out so no vic a-league teams left.

 

[Meerkat]

Why are we only the bloody A league side that can’t take Pens.

Aerial shits down 2-0 to Oakley Cannonns.

 

[Tevor]

I’m watching Refs v Roar, both have very inexperienced back lines and look very shaky in defence.

 

[Tevor]

I’ve changed games to watch Shitney hopefully get done.

Watched the Bulls and Phoenix. Dual 10s of Davilla and De Silva will be hard to stop. Carter looked very dangerous. Feel like the Bulls could be carved up by better teams. They might be better balanced once Ugarkovic is in midfield as well.

Both sides looked shaky defensively though and Wellington were honestly the better side for most of it. The Nix just lacked a cutting edge. Kraev looked decent and Sasse looks quick. Pennington was woeful for the Phoenix. Could have easily been a reversed scoreline, credit to Macarthur for making their chances count though.

I reckon I give the npl sides a chance of making the final

Would be awesome to be honest.

Love one of the NPL sides to take it out.... I also think the winner gets to play in the champions league

I think Macathur will win some games this season purely off the attacking talent they have. But I also think they will get found out defensively and the lack of an experienced coach will hurt them against sides that can dull their attack

DDS never plays a full season as he always suffers an injury. It is an interesting one for sure and how Dwight will go. I think he will be OK at winning over the change room however agree he may be tactically found out at times by the top teams. They have always had a good team on paper just a rubbish manager with no personality. I'd be surprised if they were not challenging for finals this season if Dwight can keep them all happy. Nix will be decent again as Talay is a good manager and will have them very structured again this season.

Not that you can read much into Cup games however both Roar and Reds looked defensively suspect as well. Roar didn't have Aldred playing last night and the Reds will miss the Great Dane and Popovic who looked great at the end of last season didn't look so solid without an experienced CB next to him.

I was only thinking that if Kaltak and Kelechi work out our defence may not be all that bad this season.

Did anyone see the U14's keeper on the Cannons bench last night. There was something like 8 injured keepers in the club and he was the next available. A great cup moment, perhaps if they had a 2 goal lead they could have subbed him on for a minute or two. It would be a record held for a long time for the youngest player in the Aust Cup.

They only got dispensation to sign Lewis Italiano on the day of the game - if that hadn't been sorted then the 14 year old would have been on from the start
