2018-19 Other A-League Games

Something very interesting here. Brisbane have basically thrown their active support under the bus coz of a ''f**k the ffa'' chant. Stupid statement to put out on a game day. A club coming in to try and control the active support ends in disaster every single time.

Yeah pretty selective stuff from the Roar, while swearing is technically prohibited around Australia it is rather convinient that the only time it is enforced is when it is criticizing the governing body. Pretty poor statement but it feels like they have been threatened with legal action from the employee. Looks like a textbook Corporate "it's not our fault and we're doing everything we can to fix it" while doing absolutely nothing. If they aren't being threatened with legal action then this is just alienating their most passionate supporters.

The Roar keeping themselves well in contention to claim a trophy this season.
A wooden one that is.

Deadset could be our MVC 10men game from last year. We should have won that and cocked it.
Roar are going as bad as us. Absolutely our chance to get a 3 pointer

The roar should have gone in to half time in front but they couldn't convert some very good chances. They could pile a few on in a half or collapse completely and it's impossible to know which one is coming. That said if we do drop a goal we're definitely not out of it unless we give up.

What's in our favour is we're scoring again. It's really just stupid red cards that's killed our momentum.
With the roar, if you stop Taggart, they can't score.

Nobody stops Taggart scoring better than Taggert !

Last week:-
VAR: Heh, I know how to piss Wanderers off, this will be funny
Babbel: what the f**k dude? /calls out shit refereeing in the media/

This week:
VAR: Hey Marcus? Go f**k yourself. Eat this.

VAR should be fired. Not suspended - fired. Can't wait to hear Wilson come out and pretend it wasn't incorrect. He'll probably claim it wasn't the same phase of play. Disgraceful .

There was really no reason for the AR to be out of position.

I wasn't sure whether to agree with or give you a funny emoji.
I was half watching this last night and I'd just changed back from the cricket.
It took me a minute or so to realise that goal had been given.
As you say, after that goal for Perth the other night.

Thats down to the AR - routine call at this level

Luckily we must have had his brother against City who completely missed Simon's handball for the pen

Not AR fault. New direction is to let it go if close and VAR will catch it. VAR fault

I do think the AR should have been on it - but the AR was caught out of position several yards ahead of play. From that spot they had no chance of getting it right so they did the right thing in keeping the flag down - but they still shouldn't have been caught out of position.

Still the VAR at fault though.

Another laughable ref decision in the SFC - NJ match, again, no idea how VAR didn't intervene.

So, VAR seems to be busy watching the tennis this weekend. Knowing our history with VAR that seems more likely to help us

Horrible decision on the Hoffman red and Sydney’s both fullback should have received yellows.

 

[priorpeter]

@cece whats your thoughts on Hoffman’s red?

 

[Navy and yellow]

Lo0ok on the bright side. At least we weren't up 3-0 and lost. That would really suck eh Brissie??

Only because we can’t score 3.

Hahaha, so true.

 

[MagpieMariner]

We did score three, two to Hoole & one to Kennedy...oh, wait...

 

[Big Al]

WSW and Roar are trying everything possible to get the spoon and we just won’t give it up
