Dalison Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Last 2 games he is avg. Sorry to say but I think Hersi has it all over him. Hope he proves me wrong I thought he was terrific tonight, always threatening and a great run that should've been a goal for Ruka. I'd have him instead of Hersi, who I don't think has been that good for perth this year Prydzopolis and Bob 2 Link to comment
KGee Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Hersi had Polenz constantly overlapping so teams had more to think about.. Castelen pretty much has to do it himself and for me 1 on 1 he's a better bet to go past a player than Hersi. That said tonight I didn't think he had as good a game as on Wednesday.

MartinTyler Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Hersi took a while to get going in season 1 and his form dropped off in season 2 as contract negotiations dragged on. I reckon Romeo will prove a better buy. theguyyouwishyouwere and Prydzopolis 2 Link to comment
Prydzopolis Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 Yep thought he has been outstanding tonight, made a few superb runs and looked good when he swapped with saba coming central. I do feel he needs to back himself, too many times tonight and Wednesday he looked to pass instead of having the shot himself! Still I think he is better than Hersi and I'd much rather him over Hersi but KGee made a very good point with Hersi/Polenz partnership. It adds an extra dimension to your side when you've got an overlapping right back, Cole I felt would be able to play this role for Romeo but hasn't been able to pull it off tonight. Had we put away our chances and come away with the win would we be having this conversation? Doubt it. Link to comment
Burgerman Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 He is our best player on the park for me very nice quality and the more we see the more we will get out of him. Works hard and goes looking for the ball roaming around the pitch not sitting back waiting. Favorite player for me and better than Hersi and what he lacks in speed he makes up in technical quality.

Best player tonight and I reckon he'll only get better when he's settled in. From my observation he's outdoing Hersi in speed as well. Link to comment
Unlimited Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 I'm not sure if he's faster than Hersi, but he has the acceleration and trickery to make up for it. I thought he had a great game, running at defenders and the like - in fact, Ruka and Saba all did this to varying degrees. Once they click... geez. It's going to be beautiful Prydzopolis 1 Link to comment
KGee Posted November 22, 2014 Share Posted November 22, 2014 , Cole I felt would be able to play this role for Romeo but hasn't been able to pull it off tonight. Might have had something to do with Cole playing left back yesterday... On that note Cole is so uncomfortable at left back. Right back good and need to cement him in there. Link to comment

Yeh my bad, I was referring to Wednesday night more but he didn't bomb on forward to support ruka as much as I would have liked in last nights match. Link to comment

Delije Posted December 10, 2014 Share Posted December 10, 2014 Castelen is our best player by far. A different level compared to the team. Link to comment
TehSmileyBandit Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Any word on the stomach injury? I notice he's not in the Wullungtun squad, but then again, Baccus is so I don't know what to believe. Lookers 1 Link to comment

Taurus Posted December 30, 2014 Share Posted December 30, 2014 I find your lack of response... disturbing. The squad will train at Pirtek tomorrow, so I won't be able to make it. Your close by so just pop down there about 10am or 2pm & you can report back to all of us on his condition. 102megan 1 Link to comment

Burgerman Posted January 5, 2015 Share Posted January 5, 2015 Was first reported as 6-8 weeks abdominal muscle tear which should see him back after the break, no other injury news since the CWC. Prydzopolis 1 Link to comment

No, Popa does have a sense of time. But he is in a temporal time warp that opened up when Shinjo scored that goal against the Victory in season 1 with the juggle and volley, and hence can see past, present and future all in one event horizon. I wouldn't be surprised if he already knows who will win the 2025 FFA Cup... 102megan and DinoPresinger 2 Link to comment

ManfredSchaefer Posted March 1, 2015 Share Posted March 1, 2015 Had a good solid game....so glad he is back. He just looks to have that extra bit of quality about him, but for some reason (most probably his injury woes) has not been able to convert into goals. Romeo's on a 2 year contract right? Get him fired up for the ACL campaign then give him a good break and some work over the off-season to bounce back bigger and better for 2015/16 Burgerman, tardotz, DinoPresinger and 1 other 4 Link to comment
