Newcastle Jets vs Western Sydney Wanderers 24/9/2016 3:00PM

Non competitive sums it up well..

Summary anyone? Was it as grim as Facebook makes it out?

**** facebook. It was a great day out with the lads.

 

And we ran kids and second stringers for much of it.

watched it on 442 link. A nothing performance. We had absolutely no cutting edge, (no change there).  It was a reserve team in the main but our new #10 was underwhelming....

He wasn't actually surrounded by quality.

First hit out for us. I'll give him the benefit of the doubt.

At least he got some miles in his legs.

Result doesn't matter too much from this game. Good to see a lot of the younger players get a run. I thought Melling was quite good in midfield. He will be put to good use during the ACL period

Andrew bloody Hoole ripped our defense to shreds hahaha. Cole had a shocker, got beaten almost every time.

Watched this game on the internet and almost fell asleep from boredom. Newcastle would have got something out of it but for us duck egg learned I would suggest.

 

Just a pointless , badly timed stroll  in the afternoon sun of the wine country . Sorry for the poor bastards who drove all the way up there  and back and probably had to pay to get in.

 

Would have been better to stage a full training session on how to defend set pieces in anticipation of the derby , and after conceding the opening goal from ( again) a set piece against City.

Just got home. Not entirely negative as we faced a full strength jets team with mainly youth products. They should of had 4 and we made them look a lot better than they are.

 

Baccus killed it. What a player he's turning out to be.

 

Clisby is going to get shredded this season, not convinced.

 

A lot of work to do before round 1. ****.

Jets played their 1st eleven, bar Poliak.

We played half a dozen AL contracted players who need game time & some NPL2 players who are at best, on NYL contracts. Had our Young Socceroo squad members been available, we would have been more competitive.

Anyone that watched the stream would now know, why Redmayne is our undisputed 1st choice keeper.  

 

Btw, I had a chat to Labi at half time & he's been finally given clearance to return to the pitch, 12 months after his knee operation.

Great news on Haliti

 

One of my favourite wanderers, I really hope he has a good season for jets (just not against us)

well that sounds more hopeful than all the naysayers.

saw some of the second half on the stream and his touch looked good.

Not sure who the ref sent off (Boogaard again?)

Oh god -hope evaporates and despair sets in. Imagine when we play him in the ACL !

Agreed, Tyson was poor.

 

Hard to gather much from the overall performance with so many squad/youth players. Nico didn't seem to do much, but the whole team was like that.

It was Hoffman that sent off on the report of a linesman.

He kicked out at Kuku during a set piece scuffle.

The vision is available in the tweet below, but I can't seem to copy & paste it

Andrew bloody Hoole ripped our defense to shreds hahaha. Cole had a shocker, got beaten almost every time.  

Consisdering how much he stank up the entire A-League for the Eastern Facing idiots last year him ripping up anything is pretty shocking. 

Why, 2 weeks from Round 1 were we playing the youth team? I understand they played a few nights before, but why organise this match then? What was the benefit to our A-League team?

 

At least the u19s Socceroos won the Asian Cup. Shabow to start in the derby.

I suspect the Jets trial was locked in before the FFA Cup QF draw was known. 

Irrespective, I know the club are attempting to organise another trial game later this week

Can only assume the trial was organised before the FFA cup draw. Admittedly, it probably should have been rescheduled.

a bunch of fringe defenders and midfielers got a run.Good for fitness

Kearsley Hotel was nice, not much to say about the game though. 

 

Nico is obviously short on fitness but everytime he lost it he fought hard to try to win it back.

I noticed his defensive work ethic as well. That's the benefit of signing foreign wingers in their 20's. They might not be as dynamic as a Castelen type, but they've got the engine to contribute at both ends of the pitch

It was boys against men. But: our two senior full backs looked vulnerable. Jamieson will be missed. Baccus and Melling looked solid in midfield.

 

More police and security than wsw supporters. I trust they enjoyed standing in the sun as much I enjoyed lying in the grass.

 

Lots of possession, no chances created, defending high and being vulnerable to fast counter attacks - I hope this is not the template for S5.

 

Poljak and Haliti appreciated being approached by red and black. They seem to enjoy their time in the Hunter. Good for them. Nice guys.

 

The thought of relying on young players like Shabow or Scott to make an impact worries me deeply.
