A-League '11/12 :: Round 18

[roboshark]

I doubt there was that many there. 2k is beyond generous.

Honestly if they can't get a crowd for the grand final replay when they're top of the ladder, they don't deserve a team.

Official crowd was 10k

 

[Timmah]

The crowd was 10k. Have fun with conspiracy theories, that was definitely the crowd. Stadium was half full.

Mariners were woeful, lacked structure and sorely missed Ryan, Bozzy and Amini.

I have no problem with the 4 or 5 yellows we got today... my only question is why similar offences were not carded for the opposition. Woeful officiating in that dept.

Melb derby ended scoreless

Arnold whining about the ref.....lose 1 game out of 15 and then whine about the ref

LOL forget the fact that we should have had a penalty and Zwandfjdlfjndkjlnsijk sent off.

We are Brisbane! We are Back!

 

[Mong]

I don't think it was a penalty as it was just outside but gee whiz, how did they miss it.

Not sure why CCM fans or officials are whinging though.

Other than they are just whingers of course

Honestly - most of the foul & card decisions against us were legit. We were playing frustrated football once we got 2-0 down and it showed.

The problem with the referee was purely on the fact that a number (probably 3 or 4 throughout the game) of similar offences from the Roar didn't attract 1 single yellow. Pretty sure that's what Arnie was "whinging" about, a fair concern really IMO.

I'm now a bit worried our momentum has been killed with the 14 day break. Roar and Wellington are gaining fast.

 

[roboshark]

Wooho come on fellas. Go on with it



Ht. jets 3. Syd 0

 

[roboshark]

Could only happen to us. Wtf does he say to them at halftime

f**knme

 

[roboshark]

An argument could be made that, while contact started outside the box it continued inside, which is a penalty.

 

[roboshark]

Tense finish....deserved the win. The 2nd halves tho are still a worry

 

[Timmah]

Good to see the Jets hit some form although those 2 conceded goals were a worry.

 

[Dr Crane]

We are Brisbane! We are Back!

can still see down your shirt though.

 

[the_flight_of_the_magpie]

the mariners are pretenders

 

[Timmah]

the mariners are pretenders

Not sure we've lost 5-2 to Newcastle this season.


Also not sure how a team that loses just 3 of 19 games are "pretenders".

Good bait though.

 

[Jobdog]

All of a sudden the Mariners might start to have a brief glance over their shoulders to see where the Phoenix are ...

 

[Timmah]

7 points clear with a game in hand? :lol:

Maybe if we go on a 5 game losing streak like Brisbane.

Losing a game against the second-best team in the comp missing three of our best players isn't exactly one for the shame file.

Just hope Arnie doesn't persist with starting Hearfield again.

 

[roboshark]

They should finish first...then choke in the 6 as per the script

 

[Timmah]

In the 6?

We're guaranteed to reach the preliminary final, we can't finish lower than 3rd in the finals.

If we're gonna choke, it'll be on GF day :lol:
