A-League 13/14 :: Week 1

[Big Sam]

As for the game... yes it's early days but both WSW and us looked very good for a Round 1 clash.

Based on the three games so far in terms of form - us and WSW up top... Sydney 3rd best... Heart probably behind them, Victory a little disappointing and Newcastle... well...

Yeah agree with CCM and WSW as the early top 2. Heart was good but they might actually be the A-League's first one-man team - everything came through Harry and once he went off they looked lost in attack. Even SFC aren't a one-man team this season with the likes of Emerton, Carle, and Garcia.

You're crazy if you think Sydney are ahead of Victory. Relying on ADP coming up with something brilliant will not win them many games. Victory were flat but it's round 1. They'll be in the top 3.

Went to the Melbourne Derby. Seemed a little flat. Was sitting near some supporters group that call themselves the Real Northern Terrace or something. They had some good chants, but spent over half the game focussing on booing and swearing at other Victory supporters.

Seemed like a bunch of lunatics to be perfectly honest.

This shit drives me nuts. The smaller Roar supporters group (the RCC) spend at least as much time singing at the bigger group (The Den) as they do about the football.

The RCB or whatever they're called nowadays often work with the Den to get songs going, they seem to be rather friendly with each other from what I see at games.

Besart Berisha is so f**king shit

 

[BDR]

They did try it at times last year for sure, however the snark is still there and it's irritating.

A bit harsh there..

I noticed that last season as well.. The strange angst they seemed to once have appears to have substantially dimmed.

A bit harsh there..

Definitely not, we have had that many chances and hes either offside or messes it up. For a guy who's constantly running down the player with the ball, hes lazy as f**k.

 

[Mong]

It's only the first half of the first game in round one mate.. He will score us plenty of goals this season as usual.

 

[BDR]

Reminds me a lot of last year's opener. Very frustrated and lacking a bit of class in central midfield.

 

[Mong]

Their passing is extremely poor so far..

[Mong]

He was bound to score after the earlier comments..

 

[joel caine number 1 fan]

2 red cards and adelaide still win

 

[BDR]

great game Adelaide vs Perth, match of the round for sure

 

[Big Sam]

All this talk about how long it takes to get tactical change in the HAL and Adelaide have done it in just 3 months by bringing in a former La Masia coach. They certainly won't finish 9th...
