How Aloisi still has a job at WU is astonishing, really.
Theyāre beyond skint
Iāve got visions of Scotty Barlow going full Oprah at a league meeting and just handing out coaches to everyone.
Think we have connections to 8/13 this season? Only Veart, Sterj, Jackson and the two Melbyās we canāt claim (with Poppa having just departed).

Should replace him with Harry Kewell.
Or does he think heās too good to manage in the A-League?
Harry is useless because he never hired Our Sebba as an assistant to tell him what the goal is.

4-0 Jets. Aquilina with a second.
I know its still early pre-season, but Western just look awful at the back.
Newcastle look hardly āstrongā either.
Thatās pretty embarrassing from WU. Iād seriously consider just fining the entire defensive back line for their āperformanceā tonight.
Garuccio has not covered himself in glory
Both games its very obvious early pre-season, park football-esque scrappy, but 10 goals across two games. Canāt complain.
Newcastle v Rockdale Illenden
Perth v Melbourne City
Most people would find it hard to believe Garuccio ever got an overseas contract. Heās been absolute trash since coming back from Scotland.
Western with a consolation goal through Ibusuki.
4-1
Not a shred of emotion on Aloisis face. 
Early days for sure, but on this evidence youād back Thurgate to set an unbreakable record for most ALM games without a finals appearance.
Half tempted to go to either Blacktown v Adelaide or Rockdale v Newcastle tonight.
Bicentennial is 20kms from work, Landen Stadium in 7 Hills is 25kms from work.
Or I just go home, snuggle into my nice warm oodie, frozen pizza in the air fryer, and a couple IPA tinnies.
Iām also pretty broke until payday. So spending money on tickets and food just isnāt smart right now lol.
Decided to watch Rockdale v Newcastle tonight .
Much better game than last night. Newcastle up 1-0 after 20, but Rockdale are threatening.
Newcastle might surprise a few people this season, just maybe. Last week they looked very strong, and are looking decent so far tonight.
Rockdale 1-1. Nice!
Bai Antoniou, thereās a former Sydney player.
Half Time around the grounds:
Rockdale: 1
Newcastle: 2
Brisbane City: 0
Western Suburbs: 2
Blacktown ;0
Adelaide: 1
Perth RedStar v Qld Lions kick off in 15 minutes.

Dukuly smashes home from a tight angle to put Adelaide in front.
Jovanovic gets Adelaideās third early in the second period of ET. Iād say its game over now.
Blacktown with a second moments before full time. FT 3-2.
