2016/17 Other A-League Games

[Big Al]

Ref walked the ten paces but wall stopped at 8, he tried to move them in a utter piss weak motion. They ignored him and he moved to them to use the shaving cream.

We need to do smart things like that when defending

 

[Big Al]

Galekovic back? I thought he was out for longer.
Would Izzo have stopped it?

Was back last week as well, complained that AU haven't offered him a contract and have signed another keeper (Izzo)

 

[Big Al]

Carusca out for next week, not having a good season at all, completely frustrated

I thought he was out for a while, maybe season ending.

If we didn't retreat far enough I'm sure the ref would pull out a yellow pretty quick.
Probably a second yellow for someone knowing our luck.

So it was from a free kick where the wall wasn't positioned properly. Therefore Izzo wouldn't have stopped it.

 

[Big Al]

Wow what a ridiculous finish
Amor walked off down tunnel? Due to Alosi rumours?

Not if there was a wall involved.

Just took at a look at 442 to read the report.
It goes up until the 70 th minute or so then says.

then all hell broke loose, more to follow.

Ros Alosi and Reds assistant got into it in the tunnel.
An incision according to Garby st half time of WSW

WSW win, almost assured of top 6 now.

Weakend Nix play Jets next week in NZ with half the Nix on international duty

More poor officiating, will be very interesting when the VMR or what ever it's called comes in for the last few rounds or will that be just as big a joke. Just another Ref who lost control of the game by being soft then the game blows up. How often do you see players holding keepers back like that and it goes totally unpunished. Our last game against City was a perfect example they were allowed to throw/kick the ball away three times in a row before a card was shown. At that point the Ref was merely a puppet to the players. Forget the second division we need to invest in better officials as a matter of urgency.

 

[Capn Gus Bloodbeard]

Ref made a hash of that red card. Holding occurred first, so Roar should have had the free kick. Yellow card to reds, red to theo - though yet another example in the HAL of a situation escalating when the ref has failed to address the first incident. I can actually understand the ref hoping play could continue here, but even so - it shouldn't have been a penalty.
People are talking about 'penalising the more serious incident when things happen simultaneously'. Yes, that's a thing - but the holding was first, so that doesn't apply.

 

[Big Al]

Huge mistake by Ref

Love Alosi response, why bother asking just to get a we stuffed up.

Paulo was ahead of the curve here, just shows how many dodgy calls we got early in the season.

The refereeing has been horrible, they can't handle the pace and I'd question there positioning if I knew what I was talking about because they miss so many things.

The amount of penalties given and missed in the league is huge. Is that dumb defending always challenging instead of holding back or just gambling knowing the refs have no clue?

The ACL used to be you couldn't breath in the penalty box and defenders wised up quick smart, being better players might have helped

 

[Big Al]

Ross Alosi got 4 games, but can still do ACL, so will be back for finals

Craig Moore got 1 week, not allowed in the VIP areas basically

WSW feasting on City, Santa hatrick

As I type stupid penalty given to City but saved. Oh my Fornaroli having a shocker from the spot this year, except against us

Correct, he would be well over 20 goals if he converted the majority of his spot kicks.

 

[Big Al]

Correct, he would be well over 20 goals if he converted the majority of his spot kicks.

And he's still hit 8 penalties as well and only 7 in open play. That's why people saying he hasn't been as good this year

 

[FFC Mariner]

Thank you to the scum for allowing us to end the weekend on a slightly cheerier note.

Outstanding lack of effort against the Nix and the angst scummers are feeling towards Lawries mate as coach is "walmsleyesque"

Love it

Not how u impress Roy unless the cheque clears

NIX must be so confused, pump the jets and cleaned us up with there players on international duty yet have been ordinary with there internationals. Still in race for the 6 as well

Sydney dominating Perth who are at risk while small of missing the 6 to the Nix. 6 point gap

 

[Wombat]

Wow 5.0 loss for the Scum. That makes me feel better. Maybe there is a team worse than us.
