HeartFc Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Malik for that "miskick" in the last 5 minutes, which was actually a standard pass for him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mattyh001 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Wazza for only making one sub. Could have made one at the end, even if only to waste time 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bt50 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Fitzy by a fucking street. Dont get me wrong, i rate him and love the way he goes about it, but so many of our fans have blinkers on when it comes to this bloke imo. Was thoroughly outperformed by a debutant last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He certainly had a quieter game by his standards. Great that we've got debutants of that quality.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MXG Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Would be Brattan by a mile. Constantly paused the game with side and return passes. But he suddenly woke up on the left, been found by great Dean, did the only bright thing in the whole game. So this time not 13*2 but just 13. Mauk.

Blue Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 Fitzy was involved in the goal, he laid on the ball for Jako who should have scored and he setup (with Ross) the goal that Mauk should have scored. The only thing Fitzy is doing wrong is playing with guys who can;t finish. He did seem to be playing a different role last night coming in central with Jamo hugging the line. I thought the debutant did well but lets not get carried away. I would be very scared having him against Zullo on Friday night. Josh Rose is a vastly different prospect to most HAL defenders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jw1739 Posted December 10, 2017 Report Share Posted December 10, 2017 @haz Hope you'll forgive me for saying it, but IMO these "Spud" threads are pretty meaningless when the team has put in a reasonable performance and won the match. No player is going to be perfect for the whole match, and calling someone a "spud" for a missed chance or errant pass is a bit ridiculous and just leads to polarised views.

We would have won had he done things differently Malik had a decent game tbh but he is a massive liability and has copped 2 red cards and also cost us points against WSW. The risk for him to implode is too high when you have class players like Killer playing in the youth.... Anyway, no clear spud so all votes are valid. 4 people have voted for Budz who didn't even play!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In games like that it is a bit unfair to pick someone, you can see by the votes no one did anything glaring wrong as it's pretty much spread across the board, with a few favourites being picked. As team it was a good improvement over the last few weeks, but it's just a bit of fun in the end. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said earlier, I would rather select Kilkenny who seems to be missing for reasons other than his ability as a footballer. Malik had a solid game yesterday but is always a risky selection IMO due to his propensity to fuck up or get sent off. Malik and Wazza are currently leading the vote ahead of Budzinski who didn't even play, so I'm assuming I'm not alone in this opinion.

Would be great to have him around, then Jacobsen would not be required in the midfield. And agree that Malik is a hack. Yesterday, though I think he had a good game, far from being a Spud. Not much clarification here why he was a spud except yours (general liability) and the comment about "miskick" at the end (probably the only mistake he did).

I thought Fitzy was fairly wasteful and stuffed up more often than he created yesterday. I love him as a player, but his lack of end product this season is starting to annoy me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't necessarily say that's a positive thing given the nature of this forum. Malik could score a hat-trick and some people would still want him publicly crucified out the front of AAMI Park He played well yesterday, especially given he was in an unnatural position, the fact that anybody has voted him 'spud of the match' (marginally in front of the manager of the winning side mind you) is just a reinforcement of the blinkered scapegoating that occurs on here.

I reckon he is one of our best players. Quick look at the stats has him first for assists (3) and first for chances created (13). He is our best creator in my opinion, but he is quite a wasteful player in terms of shooting. He is second for shots but hasn't scored yet, and his accuracy is at 50 per cent.

Just saying i thought he was poor last night and it's a bit frustrating that he's not scoring given his chances. He's a key cog to our team though, and as people have said with Ross, you'd be more worried if he wasn't getting the chances at all. When it clicks i think we are going to truly belt someone soon.

playmaker Posted December 11, 2017 Report Share Posted December 11, 2017 The way we owned them in their wide play on both sides of the pitch was a clear indication of how good Malik, Atkinson, Jamieson and Fitzy were. I think if you watch the game on TV you really miss the great off camera stuff that goes on and how that forces plays that lead to ball winning opportunities. Malik, Brattan, Mauk, Jakobson and Jamieson were immense off the ball and that's why we dominated out wide and the middle of the pitch. In saying that Mauk really needs to finish better than he does with only the keeper to beat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a good team effort in the first half and most of the second, for a team that prides itself on possession, we strangled them most of the game. A lot of credit goes to Fitzy and Atkinson who possitioned themselves narrow and didn't allow De Silva or Brama to get time on the ball and if they did our destroyers would be on them quick smart. Malik was surprisingly good at RB when defending, limited in attack, but was never caught out of position because of it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
