Torn Asunder

Has there been anything official from the club on the red card? I just saw them post Arslan's goal on their IG ...funny, given our star player is out for next week. I bet most supporters are unaware

Vidmar's negative attitude in bagging out the team after every game won't work in terms of getting them to improve ... last night's loss was terrible but the players still put in a tough shift ... Perth is a hard place to play and get a result. Seems to me like he's losing the dressing room. Felt for Arslan as well. You could see the red mist descending, especially after the broken nose from that little Ronald McDonald scum bag

Arslan got a red card.

Melbourne weather can fuck right off

He must have forgot to tell his missus about the two year deal till after it was done. Rookie mistake

Game management was poor - we were facked after equalising, so what do we do, push on and get smacked on the counter - we should have sat back a little after that one, in the context of the season, a draw would have been alright and kept us level with Cental Caravan Mariners (Fuck Matt Simon)... I also think we should play 4-4-2 ... put Antonis or Caputo next to Jmac, and fack of Lopane

Freeze frame means shit all. Ya get a million of these little contests in the box every corner ... Broxham (who is an incredibly weak person) had already lost the ball at this point due to his lack of strength and testicular fortitude, and if anything JMac is actually trying to help him from falling given his brittle nature. Ball is well and truly gone from him at this stage as he was out of the contest ... I was at the game ... and everyone was bemused that it was a free kick ... EVERYONE ... even the ref

Was at the game and had a clear view of the disallowed goal. 100% not a foul, there was a heap of strength over the ball type contests in that box scramble and Jmac was simply stronger than Broxham, who is a whiny little bitch that flung his arms out and weakly fell over, crying real tears as well. Goal should have stood and Broxham should have been carded for extreme weakness

No foul. Robbed

Was at the game and we made enough chances in the 1st half that we should have at least been 2 up at half time. The Mariners 1st goal shouldn't have stood as there was as clear as day handball in the lead up ... the refereeing was atrocious We were spent by half way through the 2nd half but credit to the boys for fighting back to at least get a point.

100% didn't deserve to go through

In a word, at the moment, the team is impotent

Congrats to JMac on a one half hatrick for the Socceroos. Yes, it's against Bangladesh ... but geez he sits so much better in a 4-4-2

Was at the game and dont think our current squad suits the formation we play. We try to dominate possession and then are totally predictable with side to side passing, and then wide attacks that go nowhere, except backwards or side to side. Talbot kills 98% of attacks he is involved in .... i think Galloway should be given a go. Jakolis is improving, has a sublime touch, but still struggles with his finishing pass, and has no chemistry yet with JMAC, or Aziz. And our system does not work for JMAC. Its so easy for anyone to defend against us , let us have the ball and overload out wide and compress the middle ... our wide players hardly ever try and get in behind (only Aziz on occasion). And eventually we cough one up on the counter. And our current style means we get very few counter attacking chances. And when we do, JMAC has no pace or touch to take advantage (as he is a tap in goal scorer) Maybe we should have had a couple of goals last night, but also out stale play makes me think we didn't deserve to win. With the players we have, I think Vidmar must tweak our formation. I want to see a traditional 4-4-2 and this would be my starting 11 ... Young (GK) Galloway Nuno Good Aziz Sakhi Ugarkovic Arslan Jakolis JMAC Natel I think this would work heaps better. Easy for Leckie to slot back in as well...

Can anyone advise on how to add one's membership to a Google Wallet on an Android? Also, did anyone get a members code for discounted tickets for the regular season? I've got a few people that want to come to a few select games ...

Good, Nuno, Talbot and JMac are the only ones from last year's team on the pitch... pretty much completely new ball game. Def gonna tale time for us to gel. Jokalis hasn't got a final ball in him ... has been the way in every preseason game as well Overall team balance seems a bit off. We've got quality in the squad. Just not clicking. Will take some time. I think a bit of player rotation may help as well. If we are always going wide on attacks, at least try to get in behind ... this will suit Jmac. The Brazillian seems he has a few nice tricks. He should start over Jokalis

Thanks for letting me know guys - it pains me greatly to give Paramount my money - it is a horrible streaming service

Does anyone know if there is a Paramount discount in this year's membership deals?

Is this on channel 10?

... will Murphy1 also return?

I have unbridled hate towards this service ... its literally the worst ... EVER!!! From the crappy interface and streaming functionality for live sports, to the inability of the TV app to remember watch history, to the delays in getting access to replays. Its a disgrace to have to give them any money ... but how else can you watch away games, etc. Fack em ...

FIFA recognises us as Premiers / Champions ... fuck the Finals cup. Terrible, terrible concept ... just look at the history of really shite one sided games ... it just doesn't work to produce a true champion The sooner they piss it off the better. Last game of the season should be the Australia cup. Least that has some legitimacy. Harper and Beath are genuine cunts

I also think the football purest are just not into the Finals Series. Let's face it, we are champions. They've already given us a proper trophy recognised by FIFA and that gets us into the ACL. The blatant sting and cash grab for finals just doesn't sit well, especially given the cost of memberships, and like mentioned above the limited benefit you get for being a paid up member come finals. To me, if they did a proper Australian Cup, and timed it better throughout the season, that could be the final game of the year. It would be a lot more genuine, and I reckon worth paying for (rather than it being a dodgy pre-season fixture).

Suck it Sydney 🤣🤣🤣

I went to all home games this year, but not going to this one ... Very little reward for members (and I am a foundation one) ... Ive forked out decent money all year on the club ... really, should be better deals or tied into memberships ... for this game, for me to reserve my yearly seats for my family is $170 Feels like a hollow game, will be watching (and screaming at the TV ... i think its of Free to air) ... will be doing the lads a favour as they'll have a small crowd in Sydney if we make the GF Fuck Sydney. hope we pump them
