He has has a a monumental trajectory, I dare you to do the same annd not go off the boil some, at that age!😎

Oh I agree and it’s coaching and putting him in a position to succeed. I think he should been picked for this game is what i am saying but i can understand why he was left out as hadn’t been good

 

[Allreet?]

He was played out of position in the China game (and got zero service). He has to played wide and the plan HAS to be to get him in behind the defence where he's so dangerous.

"So dangerous" how many Aust players do those words apply to?

That won't fly with poppa's ultra defensive system.

Results at half time in other games going our way

Yengi!!!!

 

[sydmariner]

Ryan is back, still no max.

 

[Stuartmcateer]

The only thing worse than our passing is their passing.

 

[Allreet?]

We are so crap...

 

[FFC Mariner]

Maybe Ryan has reached his use by date. 2 years ago.

I don't think you can pin either goal on Ryan.

 

[VonBowellski]

Maybe too far from goal for the first one given they were well and truly in half for the shot but that's the risk when playing a sweeper keeper.

 

[turbo]

We dropped those points in the front third. Unless they're forced to by chasing a result there is so little hunger to push for goals. It's risk adverse garbage that sees us try to sit on a thin lead rather than press our advantage and gives the other side some hope they're still in it.

Burgess gave the ball up cold for the first, all keepers would be that far forward to protect the space

He looked like he was where every other top keeper would be.
