National Youth League Fixtures and Mariners youth team discussion

[Big Al]

Had some nice possession in the first half but out muscled and fell apart quickly in the 2nd.

Age difference is very noticeable

 

[Meerkat]

Oh dear.

I got a Flashscore notification telling me it was 3:0. I wasn’t too surprised. Didn’t realise that wasn’t the final score until we were 4 down.. then 5 down… 😣

Girls looking good in their match against SD Raiders in their match so far. Well set up and organised, defending as a unit, SD Raiders barely able to get a sniff of a chance. 0-0 at half time, streamed on FNSW YouTube as match of the round.

lacklustre preformance .we were lucky to only lose 1 zip .
tired and lacking hunger

 

[priorpeter]

Me and my big mouth 😂
Needed to put those couple of chances away in the first half. Raiders much better side in the second.

Watching Sydney FC's academy, Taye Headley looking very dangerous, disappointing we lost him.

Our boys were a little unlucky to go down 0-1 against Blacktown this arvo, although we were hanging on for long periods of the game.Rose had a peach of a free kick saved when the scores were 0-0

Caught the first hour, boys looking a lot more comfortable and agree with Ozhammer that we were unlucky. Jai Rose, Laurence Taylor and Ben Mewitt stood out for me. Apart from the goal Mewitt did very well against and extremely physical Mitch Mallia.

Add De Lima, Brandtman and/or Duarte and we win that one.

Academy game tonight was a nice surprise. Will be nicer if we can hang on for this draw.

 

[FFC Mariner]

Might have nicked it right at the death. Amazing save but we got the point.
Good effort

 

[priorpeter]

Rosey goes either side of the keeper and that’s 3 points. Take nothing away from a very good save though.
Mt Druitt in a few weeks looms as the absolute definition of a 6 pointer.

Was jotting down some notes at half time in the comms box and heard a knock at the door - it was only Maxi f**kin Balard dropping in to catch up! 🥰🥰

 

[VonBowellski]

Did you tell him he was wasted over there in some remote bush league, if he asks, we will take him back for a few year to help rejuvenate his career.


*Much sarcasm involved*

Did you ask why Popa is such a a cocksmoker? Haha.

 

[Stuartmcateer]

Nice they got a point but they really need to string some wins together. 1 win in 18 games is not good enough.

Lucky wanderers got points deducted and the gap to safety is only 6 points.

WSW v CCM in round 30 could turn out to be an all or nothing game for both sides.

 

[PatientMariner]

Mistakes at the back costing us!

 

[JoyfulPenguin]

Just watched the replay, lack of composure on two passes cost us, Wollongong didn't really offer much but we handed them two goals unfortunately.

Laurence Taylor and Ben Mewitt did well. As well as some good flashes of play from Jai Rose. Just missing composure in the right moments.

Really missing the Scholarship boys at the moment, going to have to pick up a lot of points in the remaining games if we want to stay up.

Mistakes at the back costing us!

Well, there’s one you can cut & paste.

 

[priorpeter]

Disappointing turnaround after what was a fairly positive performance on Thursday against manly. Even more frustrating that outside of what we just about literally handed them on a silver platter, Wollongong created virtually nothing.
Scicluna’s now out of the moon boot and will hopefully be available for selection next weekend. Wouldn’t mind a reinforcement or 2 in the window as we have a couple moving on, one in particular which will leave a fair hole at the heart of the back 4…
I _think_ the scholar lads should be available for selection from the week after next; hopefully it’s not a case of too little, too late.
