A-League Men - Round 25 - 2022-23 Discussion

Hof was supposedly fit for the last half of the season, but we refused to even let him play in the 20’s

Jets 1 - CCM 1 after 28 mins.

We sing for Yellow! (cringe)

If Rodwell was 100% exempt from the cap through the Homegrown Player Allowance and didn’t take up a foreign spot, perhaps.

Letting him walk only made sense under the assumption that he was perma-broken. Being ready for 90 minutes Round 1, and seeing through the season, means that evaluation was clearly very very wrong and I honestly think someone should be sacked for it.

Too many factors we don’t know about etc. No-one is getting sacked because we let an extraordinarily injury prone player go.

Mariners entire fan base seem to have travelled up to Newcastle for this one.

First game. Amazed Brandon O’Neil doesn’t have a broken leg.

That was a quality goal from Silvera. Really had no right to score from the position he was in.

Half time needs subtitles

Awful defending for both goals.

I thought the defence was a bit sloppy as well but the player on the ball has to have the courage to try it, and that deserves a lot of credit.

2-1 to the Mariners!

Branners off with a 2nd yellow, and misses next week’s final round game against us.

It’s all coming up Milhouse lads!

Dumb play from O’Neill, with his team’s season well and truly on the line.

It’s starting to look like there’ll need to be an improbable run of results to see us finish outside the 6.

Yeah that was dumb from O’Neil, he should know better.

Piscopo only passes if he has absolutely no other option, and when he does it’s almost always a bad pass. The kid has great potential but he’s just a good old fashioned hog, we all used to have one on the team as kids but surprised it hasn’t been coached out of him on his way up to this level.

3-1 now.

So CCM should now be in 2nd place, as they are equal on pts and GD as the Westies but have won more games.

Waiting for live ladder to confirm.

Edit: confirmed

I wonder if this starts the questions about Pappas’ future. He should’ve done better with this squad and again it looks like they’re missing the six. Mikeltadze also looking about a tenth of the player he was last season.

They’ve also scored more goals, which I imagine is one of the tiebreakers before most wins.

Can’t be arsed checking but I think you’re right. I think it’s pts / GD / GF / GW…

I always think M. T is called Mr T. He pities the Jet fool!

Mikeltadze had Penha serving him last year and for mine Penha was close to best in the league.
