They tend to get the earlier games up quicker than the later ones, so that’s on your side. I’ve noticed that they go up separately across the apps, so check both the mobile app and TV app (if you use it) and force close the apps to refresh the content.

I’ll either be watching this in the office or very delayed. 5pm sucks for a week night. Surely they could have gone with 545/6pm which isn’t that late for NZ during school holidays?
2pm on a Wednesday when you are at home not working is pretty great

I manged to keep 5pm free, but I have a meeting at 7pm to attend (booked at the last minute overnight). At least I can watch the whole game (working from home today). I was keen to sit down and have a couple beers during the game, but I guess I’ll be abstaining for this one.
Also Welly have benched their young keeper Oluwayemi after a pretty bad outing last game
As expected, the one change is forced due to injury. Never change, Uffy.
He’s still using Grant as a CB and the talented but not really ready De Jesus as a RB? JCP has really fallen out of favour hasn’t he? Even if King is still in the team, JCP at CB makes a lot more sense than Grant.
JCP hasn’t really been sighted since being hooked at half time a few weeks back, fair to say a fallout with Uffie could have occurred? Then again, he’s still on the bench, not out of the squad entirely. Just strange.
Not sure why JCP fell out of favour. King has been doing well enough though I guess. Grant to CB a few games back surprised me, but to be honest, I think he’s been doing well there, and it’s good to have his experience there. Fills me with more confidence the Gurd. I really can’t remember how JCP went in CB prior.

It’s clear his roll on the dice paid off, and he’s too scared to make any unforced changes.
Probably wearing the same underpants too
We needed experience in a CB, and Grant has experience. Just not at CB.
To be fair, the backline has looked the most solid with that line up compared with when JCP and Popovic were starting.
There was a period where Grant had experience in almost every position at Sydney FC!

I’m happy having him in the middle of defense. He might make some mistakes but in our situation, it’s a good choice. Just hope other teams don’t target our right back.

One thing I noticed at the game on the weekend was that he was coaching ZDJ from the centre and no doubt Matthews would feel a bit better with someone experienced next to him (and I think Matthews has also been defending well with no major mistakes).
It shouldn’t make sense but it’s somehow working much better than anything before it.

I think he’s the only goalkeeper we’ve ever had who has a 100% clean sheet record.
Also he looks smallish with his body type but he is 3cm taller than Caceres for instance at 1.76m.

That Wellington team looks pretty weak to be honest.
