GET IN!!!!

 

[sydmariner]

Pain

 

[Ozhammer]

Back of the net!

 

[Kareem]

First time I have ever seen a team where both fullbacks AND both wingers are left footed...

Lol

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

2 completely pointless yellow cards....

 

[nebakke]

Fark me Papadopoulos with a full on judo throws on Chase and nothing...

 

[shipwreck]

Two yellows to our key midfielder this early isn't great.

 

[Kareem]

Roar are dominating possession, but our defence have been diligent for the most part.

Really need to try and hold the ball a bit more, just to disrupt Brisbane's momentum.

No yellow card there... Really

Glad to see the refereeing hasn't improved. Clisby cops an ankle breaker, studs up on the foot on the follow-through of a kick, not even a foul.

Our defence still has too many holes and I'm really worried about how often Golec stands on the wrong side of his attacker making no effort to get to the ball.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Way too many holes in our defence. We'd be getting butchered against a decent team right now. Flat footed, crosses are passing by our defenders without desperate attempts, and BR have gotten too many shots off with Golec hanging off the wrong shoulder making no attempt whatsoever to get to the ball or disrupt the defender.

Loving Matty Simon though. And Cisse.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Taggart is our best defender today.

 

[Timmah]

Shot off Taggart there.

 

[Mini In Bay 6]

Not confident. They really dominated for the last 20 there.

Mind you Beath, how much shit by them are you going to let go? Sheesh.
