  1. It must be extremely frustrating for A.League coaching staff to be losing players again to Olympic qualifiers , the refusal to postpone games because of loss of players up to 3-4 in some clubs - key players at that , not only creates problems for teams but also credability of the League especially with the likes of Burns - Milligan - Musalik - Bridge- Vukovic - Tapor Stanley major players out again.
    My tips Victory - Glory - Jets and Roar

  2. What a great first half of attacking football , Adelaide excellent for 46 min , what a finish by Thompson in 47th, hope second half is just as good , Spang is some player !

  3. Great night in the A.League 11 goals some super finishes , horrible defensive mistakes , but great entertainment . Perth through away a certain victory 3-1 up and didn’t know how to closeup shop for 15 minutes. Maybe the players away allowed coaches to take more adventures tactics - hopefully for all concerned it will continue , fans want action like seen at Hindmarsh every week. Tassie State coaches please note teams went with 3 attachers - wide men who were instructed to attack full backs on the outside - no long ball chase tactics!!!

  4. Think you will find Pheonix have been given the late goal - Steven Old .Both games crap. Great to see however AIS player James Holland do so well for the Jets. Roar awefuland win - Farina will take any win. How bad was the ref ruined game with pour decision.

    Agreed OSC, terrible decision to give Porter a straight red…at worst a yellow but I would have played on. Numerous other poor decision made a very ordinary game just plain awful.

    Holland impressed for Jets. Didn’t hold anything back but on a one week contract, why would you?? Nicely taken goal which was all the more impressive when you look at the horrible stuff up by Denni (Jets) and Ferante (Phoenix). Some of the finishing across the A-League has been less than satisfactory and frankly most of it has been from the Brazilian stars. No value for money there I’m afraid. BJ
