jw1739 Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 VAR used to give Sydney a penalty originally not deemed such. That's the sort of thing I don't like about the use of the technology. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mattyh001 Posted April 8, 2017 Report Share Posted April 8, 2017 Watching the tards v centrelink game, I can't help think thank fark we have Bouzanis not Lawrence Thomas in goals. By God that Thomas fella has shite disposal. Makes Bouzanis look like a quality keeper. 28 minutes ago, Shahanga said: Stupid Tard gets himself sent off. We heed them to get a point here.

jw1739 Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 (edited) So, what do people think about the semi-final Sydney and Perth and the VAR decisions? I'll stick my neck out. Bobo definitely off-side in the lead-up to Sydney's second - can't see how he could not be interfering with play. Sydney's third hard to call, but again I'd have said Holosko was off-side. Reddy should have received a direct red for his hit on Bujis. http://www.abc.net.au/news/2017-04-30/var-controversy-dominates-a-league-semi-sydney-fc-perth-glory/8483868 Edited April 30, 2017 by jw1739 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dylan Posted April 30, 2017 Author Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 My thoughts is that VAR was supposed to be there not to referee normal decisions but to get rid of howlers. So now that this happens it just proves the point of everyone against VAR that it will be a slippery slope and will end up like NRL 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted April 30, 2017 Report Share Posted April 30, 2017 So the almost inevitable occurs - first vs. second in the Grand Final. I admit that this year Brisbane only got over Wanderers in the penalty shoot-out, but I reckon to persist with a six-team finals series with a 10-team league is crap. If we must have it, it should be the top four only. 2 hours ago, haz said: My main view was not the decisions (although I believe at least one was wrong...

I'd say that if the VAR decision takes more than 10 seconds then the referee's decision was not a howler and should stand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is sitting back not attacking but more importantly not conceeding in extra (namely those shifty Italians lol). So some genius decided to bring in the golden goal to entice teams to go for glory and really push for the win. I think inevitably it didn't work because you still have more risk going all out attack and after 90 minutes plus extra players are less able to cover. Also because it was seen or perceived as unfair. And from memory there were a couple games when teams scored golden goals and ran off celebrating when infact they weren't legitimate goals (like Bulut at wanderers) and the refs were unable to restart or disallow the goal. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can anyone remember why the golden goal was removed? I cant remember IMO penalties are fairer than the golden goal. However, I don't like either. I'll perhaps accept them if the match is played at a neutral venue, but in the case of yesterday's match I'm old fashioned enough to think that Victory, despite how much I despise them, earned the right to a home replay. Given that a sensible neutral venue is probably not feasible in Australia because of the sheer distances involved for the fans, I'd be happier with a home-and-away arrangement and the away goals rule. This applies in a number of competitions, including the promotion/relegation play-offs in England, and it looks to work pretty well. If we ever get to a GF on which entry to the ACL is involved it will be interesting to read what City fans think then. We were fortunate this season to play both the semi-final and the final of the Cup on what is our home ground, despite the semi being a Victory "home" match.

This, golden goal was supposed to encourage attacking play but teams preferred not to cop the goal, rather than score one themselves, so in practice golden goal was even more defensive. Personally I like penalties. It's a pure battle of wills, who will hold their nerve, who will blink first? (To be fair it probably helps that I'm a goalkeeper and get all the glory if I save even one, and none of the criticism if I don't get to any.) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
belaguttman Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 I'd prefer just removing one player from each team every 5 minutes of extra time, it would make the game much more entertaining and ensure more goals Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
