Erebus Posted January 22, 2019 Author Share Posted January 22, 2019 Risdon will be lucky to start a game. May as well keep Russel there since Risdon probably won't be at the club next season. Edinburgh, wendybr, MistahCampoy and 1 other 4 Link to comment

I think Roly has stepped up and displayed good fighting spirit in front of the kids in the last couple of matches. wendybr and Edinburgh 2 Link to comment

The selection of the various panel is based on knowledge of the Laws of the Game, fitness (beep tests) and the Ben Wilson criteria for central referees, being tall. There are some really good referees who end up as Assistant Referees because of their height. The VAR in Australia is based in Sydney similar to the NRL system. In NZ, it is based at the ground. Griffiths-Jones is the main VAR as you said, lives in Sydney, and is Head of Referees at Football NSW. wendybr 1 Link to comment
Paul01 Posted January 24, 2019 Share Posted January 24, 2019 On Suman, he has not made the U19 Australian team as the powers that be rate the Melbourne City and Smurf Youth Keepers but is the first one to make an A-league start. Fwiw, Ziggy was out injured and we look so much better with him on. Link to comment

The selection of the various panel is based on knowledge of the Laws of the Game Just to add, my eldest was asked to officiate as an AR with a Football NSW referee for a school game (Bill Turner). He did not like how the guy in centre didn't call blatant fouls and would only call a foul if there was a complaint. The A-League refs and and the Football NSW don't call every foul because they have been told to let the game flow, so there is definitely "group think" with obvious fouls and foul throws let go.

Went from great to good when the fact that Hamill is suspended this round was missed. Plus the nix Game at Campbelltown is because of a Maori festival all over NZ so no grounds were available when the season schedule was set. Plus who was to know that Rudan would do a Popa at the Nix.

The little that was said was that Bridge was gassed after 5 minutes, and replaced Fitzgerald. The rest of the team must have been the NPL team up against Dembele and co. Link to comment

spectacular291 Posted February 21, 2019 Share Posted February 21, 2019 Wasn't a whole lot to talk about re: the Guangzhou R&F game. The youth plus Fitzgerald looked quite threatening at times against Guangzhou in the first half and also defended quite well under pressure. Come second half, it was a totally different story - Guangzhou figured themselves out a little bit and went for it and pull us to pieces. 3 goals conceded in the second half. Carns 1 Link to comment

As you can tell, we don't spend much time on the preview much these days. And the teams ins/outs are always released on the Thursday after we record. RE: Nix. its hard enough keeping up to date with the above suspensions of our own team let alone cultural festivals in another country lol. Really its an easy fix. WTF is Nix having a home game scheduled when grounds aren't available? Re: GR&F - it was a closed door game and a couple of us attended. The brief mention of it was all that was taken from the game. Can't do a proper analysis of a behind closed doors friendly with the NPL squad Edited February 21, 2019 by Erebus Paul01 and Carns 2 Link to comment
