It would be out of habit more than anything, especially when a large striker is backing into you. Not sure why you wanna blame him I;m not blaming him for the loss.....just for giving away the pen....our lack of defense cost us. Link to post

Yeah, I don't blame the opposition player for milking the penalty. I blame the ref for awarding a blatantly soft penalty. sonar 1 Link to post

Yeah I didn't mean it for the loss. I think you're being very harsh on him. If my CD partner gives away a pen like that in a game, I immediately blow up at the ref. I would think my teammate was 'naive' for a moment, but he's done nothing wrong based on what referees would call 99% of the time That would be my thinking. Put it this way, if we were given a foul like that, I'd take it but think it's soft. . Edited January 13, 2019 by matty BrightSpark, LetsPele, BoyFromTheWest and 1 other 4 Link to post

mack Posted January 13, 2019 Author Share Posted January 13, 2019 If Hamill keeps his hands by his sides, he's entitled to his position and Keogh can do nothing but give away a foul or have to play with the back to goal. Instead the idiot Hamill wraps his arms around Keogh's waist and once that happens Keogh just rushes backwards, falls over and gets a penalty from a dumb**** A-League referee. It's monumentally stupid. Smoggy, GunnerWanderer, sonar and 1 other 3 1 Link to post

Yep if you put two arms around a striker in the box you can’t be suprised when a penalty is given. as billy Bragg once said “he’s a accident waiting to happen” sonar and mack 1 1 Link to post

beatsurrender Posted January 13, 2019 Share Posted January 13, 2019 We wuz robbed again eh! Maybe, maybe not but that's not why we lost. Every time they came forward we wobbled. That's the issue.

We were on a hiding to nothing and only silly errors cost us a result. On the upside we have youngsters who will benefit from the experience. I think this season is gone so the best we can hope for is to be a spolier for teams in the six.....give 'em some misery. lol Edited January 13, 2019 by sonar Burztur, Smoggy, jockman and 2 others 5 Link to post

We just scored 3 goals away against the number 1 team in the league, with half our players missing, and a referee that throughout the Match was determined to stop us. And we still nearly won. I'm not saying we can't improve, or that we're having a great season. But clearly we can play a competitive game of football. I do agree that we can't fix the refs, though.

We have the right attitude and determination. #mentality is perhaps the wrong word. What I mean is the ability to grind out a match to secure a result. As much as Hamill and Elrich put in, we need to trade up as they are really squaddies. Edinburgh, BoyFromTheWest, EmMac and 1 other 4 Link to post

I know the year the Mariners beat us in the Grand Final they only had three foreigners (Zwaanswijk, McGlinchey & Montgomery). In Round 27 they only played Zwaanswijk against Heart and left McGlinchey & Montgomery in Gosford. Don't appear to have any games without them all. The early years of the comp it's quite likely there were a bunch of teams who didn't use any foreigners. edit - In round 1 2005/06 the first game ever played didn't have any foreigners get on the park for either Newcastle or Adelaide. So I asked Andrew Howe about games without any foreigners, and he seems to think the only game ever that had no foreign players on the pitch, was indeed that first ever game. For specific teams not having any foreign players, I suspect there would be some hidden in the second season possibly, as a quick scan suggest that Sydney FC, Adelaide, Newcastle and the Mariners didn't have many foreigners at all.
