wendybr Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Just now, hughsey said: This is my biggest gripe with the VAR. There is STILL no formal process or consistency in how, who and what instigates a review. If you watch the replay, Shaun Evans was literally staring straight at the incident from about 10m away... the VAR shouldn’t have even been necessary That's what I'd heard tonight, but found hard to believe! How utterly absurd not to have ironed out "how, who and what instigates a review" Thanks Hughsey! Quote Shaun Evans was literally staring straight at the incident from about 10m away... the VAR shouldn’t have even been necessary PS Since when is there any sort of guarantee that merely because the ref is standing 10 metres away and staring at an incident that the incident will be treated the right way??

Popular Post pseudonym Posted January 5, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted January 5, 2018 Very happy with the win. A good effort by all of the team. Only one security guard annoyed WSW fans telling people to stop leaning on the fence. All other staff were fine. Since most people in the away bay were not RBB members, we took breaks between chants to cope with the humidity. This prompted a "Who Are Ya" chant from the Den ... when they were already 2-0 down My first win from 8 interstate trips (3rd Roar trip). EmMac, lloydy136, tardotz and 13 others 16 Link to comment
Burgerman Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Herd needs to smarten up and just play football, his aggression is a bit to much and needs spoken to, but happy to see him start and hopefully play every week. Oreo showed his class and should not of been doubted. Bridge was good and Santa as well. The var is a joke and needs to be fixed, seriously how could they not look at it with Santa bleeding with a break in play. Still wasn't a quality performance especially the first half,but a couple of goals might turn things around and bring in some much need confidence. Hopefully Gombau can bring in a creative winger or true 10 to give more service to Oreo and make a real run for the finals. EmMac, TheSweeper, sonar and 5 others 8 Link to comment

beatsurrender Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Couple of things re. the VAR The VAR ref decides to check incidents independently The Santa clash was not checked by VAR. The VAR ref didn't deem it a significant error Macaronne can be reviewed by the panel and given a retrospective ban as dealing with it on the field means getting a yellow or red and the ref did neither StringerBellend, wendybr, Prydzopolis and 1 other 4 Link to comment
Zelinsky Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 The Roar had too many shots on goal for my liking, but they are always a handful, and difficult to play in these humid Brisbane nights. Maccarone - WTF? Gombau and the experienced players seem to have found common ground. Four above 30 players starting at the back, three up front, with three "youngsters" running midfield - it worked well. Clisby seemed the weak link, especially first half. Good to see Gameiro back on the pitch. How many ACLs has he had? Two? Three? Good to see him losing in a game against the wsw. JayZKo's favourite player scored another goal, had an assist, and worked his arse off for 95 mins. I hope he stays injury free and keeps producing this kind of football. bombagol, EmMac, GunnerWanderer and 6 others 8 1 Link to comment

Potkorok Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 So nice to lose the possession stats in first half and yet go into the sheds 2-0 up.....Looking forward to statues of Santa and Bridge and The Snake at Parra Mk. 2. The Passionate Trio!! Kudos to the travelling grubs on tour in the away bay. Sure not the greatest display with defensive issues and giving the ball away too easily but great to see the fight and emotion back. wendybr, Edinburgh, Prydzopolis and 3 others 6 Link to comment

tardotz Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Just watched the replay again and everyone agrees that Maccarone should have had a straight red for the elbow on Santa. On the 85th min he got a yellow for a foul on Clisby.i would say even that was borderline straight red. No intention to play the ball and had a lunge at Clisby. wendybr and SomeGuy1977 2 Link to comment

We couldn’t complain if drew or lost that game we were not that great the first goal he strategically position himself away from the play awaiting any spillage and mopped it up his ball for bridge on the 2nd - all class hes general play was great again like u said jayzko for some reason is anti Reira with little reason why Reira doesn’t play last night we don’t get the points - probably same against city with hopefully a quality import to come signs are good solid away support and noise last night well down all Paul01, Prydzopolis, lloydy136 and 5 others 8 Link to comment
thefairy Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Loved the strikers up front. Looked way threating when santa, reira and scott held up the ball to pass it off. I prefer scott over jumpei on the wings any day. Showed heart and bullied the defense instead falling over like a numpty EmMac, DinoPresinger, sonar and 1 other 4 Link to comment

Apparently the maroon jersey is one of their most popular and best sellers every year (parochial Queenslanders). --------- Great to see a (relatively) solid performance, another win (in a row!) and cleansheet. Hoping we can build some momentum and continue to accumulate points. I did not expect Santa to last the full game, and wonder if he and some of the others can back it up on Wednesday. If not, very curious which youngsters will get their chance. I was pleased to see the team play with passion and cohesion, maybe the "motivational" talk from the RBB has had an impact?

mack Posted January 6, 2018 Author Share Posted January 6, 2018 12 hours ago, Paul01 said: Despite Mack stating the formation as 4-4-1-1, multiple websites (including the A-League) stating we had a 4-2-3-1 formation. All the players are familar with it so better result which is weird the men's team are now in outright 6th due to Adelaide's win. And we play Adelaide at ANZ on Wednesday night. The have Absalonsen back but may have lost Adlung. We will be without Herd but get Roly back. We have Santalab and Cornthwaite on 4 yellows as well. Gombau said in the press conference it was a 4-4-2 then a 4-2-4 late in the game with the pressing high and subbing on Scott. Prydzopolis, Erebus, Paul01 and 1 other 4 Link to comment

xxBrandonxx Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Grinding results in true WSW fashion. ATM we’re decent against lesser opponents.

DeeDee Posted January 6, 2018 Share Posted January 6, 2018 Scott really took me by surprise. Has always been largely uninspiring and off the pace up front, but looked much more comfortable on the wing! be interested to see how he goes in a few more matches when needed. I think someone mentioned it above. but the commentry was aluding to the fact that the VAR did not check it as they sid not deem in a clear and big enough error from the ref. so this is now how they are operating ever since our mariners clash. Now i understand the concept and this is the right idea, but it just shows there has to be a few rules for different scenarios in place. ie: - only check if it is deemed to be a clear and big ref error during normal play. - During the stopping of play due to a head or potential foul play injury off the ball, Use the farking time to check what happened with VAR! lurkersince2012 and Edinburgh 2 Link to comment

On Herd - yep i thought he might cost us the lead for a while there. Was relieved when he was subbed. He's a good player but you need to aim to win the ball at least some of the time, rather taking the player out. Re a creative winger. Not his usual position but I thought Lachie Scott was outstanding when he came on, playing down the right. I really would have liked to have seen more of him in that role as opposed to an out and out striker. (Idk positioning that well so i may have got this wrong) Link to comment
