jockman Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Can't face second half. Next week at souless ANZ with 10k crowd,VAR and very likely poor refereeing isn't exactly getting me excited either. Been watching football for over 40 years. This takes the biscuit. Might start watching tiddlewinks instead. wendybr, DinoPresinger and btron3000 2 1 Link to comment

matty Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 I'm already losing faith in Gombau. When you have Sotirio and Jumpei as two of your front three, you're in trouble. Under Popa it wasn't so bad because the fullbacks overlapped so much that the wingers being rubbish was less of an issue. As it is, we're depending on our worst players, our weakest links, to relieve pressure and hold the ball. Fail. Edinburgh and jockman 2 Link to comment

Part of the beauty of football is that it is continuous and flows. we are heading down an nfl track where everything is reviewed and we stop/start to the point where a 90 minute game takes 2 and a half hours. it is ******* horrible and the sooner we end this garbage experiment which I still think is largely to benefit the advertisers the better. Yep. Football does not suit video intervention. This was always going to happen. I am so over this. ****wits in suits are ruining our sport, from FIFA and their farcical decisions about World Cups and the clear corruption, to the FFA, our useless home ground and not having a home game for weeks, to VAR. Not to mention them spending exhorbitant time and effort on clamping down on fans. And they wonder why the crowds and tv ratings are dying. I'm surprised teams in Perth, Adelaide etc get any fans at all, putting up with this **** as well as having everything focused on Sydney and Melbourne.

WHACKO Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 Seriously Sotirio and Jumpei as wingers, neither can cross a ball. If this doesn't change we can't win a game. xxBrandonxx, matty and jockman 3 Link to comment

btron3000 Posted November 26, 2017 Share Posted November 26, 2017 He took off Cejudo because he wanted dudes who would run all game and give us a chance on the break. Fair enough with 10 men. Now we're one down it's tougher with the lack of quality, but it wasn't a bad decision at the time I though. Link to comment

mack Posted November 26, 2017 Author Share Posted November 26, 2017 Our win percentage against Beath is going to go from an already shambolic 26% down to exactly 25% assuming we lose this one. Only team with a worse record under Beath is Newcastle Jets with 16%. wendybr 1 Link to comment

The fact he was actively pulling his hand away from the ball before it hit him makes me wonder whether it's a penalty at all. The commentators said they spoke to Beath at half time and he said the Adelaide goal stood because the VAR didn't find an "obvious error". If that's not an obvious error how was the handball decision one? Edinburgh, DinoPresinger and jockman 3 Link to comment
