Cows V Central Coast Mariners

[Wombat]

Just finished watching the replay and thoroughly enjoyed it. Can’t say all the cow fans grazing on the hill and chewing their cud enjoyed the game. Also I was not disappointed seeing the banded headed boob making a fool of himself as usual. What about that inane Paramount commentator trying to breathe life into doomed cattle destined for the abbatoir. Another Einstein comment from an idiot commentator, he’s a great goalie, really hey he’s let 3 through.

He really is a great Goalie. He made some awesome saves, including a penalty. Without him its 7.0.

Why is Edmo not taking penalties? If I was a striker not scoring in the league, I would take any opportunity to put the ball in the net.

Hasn’t established himself amung the boys yet.

Torres is our topScorer so fair enough

Anybody know how Faz, Ronnie and Kuol pulled up today? Were they on the plane?

He was going to take that last one that Doka took. But Doka took the ball off him and Edmo tousled his hair and said go on then. This is the difference between Torres and Edmo.

A bang tidy performance from the lads. There were times, even under Monty but definitely under Staj, when we have looked flattered to be in the top six. But right now we look as assured as any other team in the league. Make no mistake about it - the Central Coast Mariners are the best team in the league and I'm not even sure it's close.

Love that people are waking up to Nizzy being the best mid in the comp, but I also want to mention Maxy. Quietly going about his business and rarely making a mistake (apart from in front of goal) - his decision making when he receives the ball with his back to goal is impeccable. So many of our attacks come through him and he keeps the ball so well to allow us to push up and relieve any pressure in our half. Love the boy!

Ryan Teague from Victory is lauded by many and he is a good player but I wouldn't swap him for Maxi.

Good player. Wouldnt swap but as a replacement he could go ok. He's a bit over a year younger and could grow into it like max did.

NIZ has found his shooting range, now for koul to do the same?

Might need to get on the pitch first.
3rd behind Reec and Edmo at the moment

The noises about mielecamp leaving being disruptive are unlikely to me. A good leader leaves when things are stable, not titanic. I think they know what they are doing this time

I had a long chat with Shaun in Bay Road last Thursday. What a lovely bloke.

In the course of my work I've met quite a few high profile people and a disproportionate number of them are arseholes. For example, if the normal community ratio is about one arsehole in every ten, I'd say the higher you go up the fame ladder, the arsehole ratio asymptotically approaches ten in every ten.

I've also noticed that even those you might say are decent blokes on the fame ladder still have a strong whiff of the freckle and tend to be a tad arrogant. Some might even suggest that a little bit of arrogance is necessary to get to the top and even charming in small doses.

Not Shaun. Not the slightest whiff of arrogance or elitism about him. Genuinely good guy and we are the poorer for losing him.

Sounds like you signed an autobiography deal....

We had talks...

Erm... but I've already said too much.

Quoted for absolute f**king truth. Couldn’t say it better myself (I guess that’s why you’re the journo and I’m the other words speaking guy)

Did you see their active support ??

Yeah 10s of them!

 

[JackMariner]

Don't know if anything was said in the commentary (I was at the game) but according to my maths that was his 100th A-League clean sheet. (He became the all time record holder with his 91st clean sheet against WU and I make it 9 more since.)

Yes they did actually mention Vuco's 100 clean slate now history in the A league HIGHEST ever.
