All Whites V South Africa | 30 May 7:30pm | The Zookeeper's Son | SS3
Confidence beats experience...good to watch albeit not finishing. Like the pace and vision so far.
Boys look good first half, Much more set then the Aussies where. Enjoyable game and great steam.@vipboxoc.
Why don't Australia and NZ play more often? Only been in NZ for 4 years, but seems like they've hardly played at all in that time. Or am i off on that?
Would be entertaining as hell.
This has been quite an entertaining game thus far. Better than I was expecting from both sides. The Nix have to sign Macca, he is in a class of his own in comparrison to others currently at the Nix, with Riera second.
Chris James has said in an interview recently that he wants to play in Europe, so do we know if he actually would play for the Phoenix if asked?
Finland is hardly in fucking Europe. Certainly in footballing terms it isn't.
Well, like New Zealand is in Oceania, but the other way 'round.
How many at the game>? Over 10k?
Mental that Tuiloma is still in the NZ U20s ..big star of the future
Does anyone have a live stream link?
Decent game. Decent little gathering in the back bar too

Australia not interested. We don't bring in the fans. They are used to us being their ponies.
Give this AW team a few more games to come together and they would beat the current Socceroos. IMO.

We can't afford the injuries.
Because not many Australian NT players would make themselves available and make the trip home from abroad (Europe, Middle East).
It would be an A-League Select game at best, or so the wisdom of the Australian 442 website goes.
Second half about to start, teams just coming out again.
So that would make an a league selections vs the phoenix pretty much?
So given a choice of McGlinchey or James would us arm chair experts actually chose McGlinchey?
Anyone know how many showed up to the game???????????.. (plz)
Attacking well but defensive shape looks poor dura having to push to DM in possession and Bill having to tuck in to CB.
Defensive blocks not moving in unison opening up gaps Payne not controlling his space. Looking great on the counter hope we can sneak one and tidy up the back and DM. Great from the young lads not on the Emblin wagon yet.

someone pls teach boyd how to shoot.
Maybe feeling the fact that so many of our players are unatached, well and truly off season, or returned from injury?

Agree, we're still a bit disorganised in defence and we don't control possession in an attacking sense, it's generally either a counter or we give it away. Still need more composure
Has the awesomely boring commentator actually mentioned many of their player's names? It's like he is avoiding having to pronounce them.
Bring Brockie on!!
When did Durante start to look so shaky with the ball at his feet?

It's an evolving centre back combo. Overall pass mark. Obviously lots of scope for more polish though.
Chris James must be a Nut-Puncher level cock for the Nix not to want him. On thr other hand, Payne has looked his age. And experience.
I hope these subs don't cause us problems. Our starting XI is good, bench looks awful
As an aside, what an excellent video link.
Dewhurst, as usual, seems to be running a late night sports talk back session with Harry as his only guest with the football on in the background
Payne not ready for this level, gives ball away too often
Musa on. Finally some hope for a scoring result tonight.

And Brockie! To break a duck?
brockie on for thomas.
i thought we wanted goals and speed not a useless shit that has the skill level of a two legged donkey.

If it was a Brockie for Boyd swap - then maybe. But with Hicks and Musa?

Ouch, I spoke to soon. Link just died.
Back on again.
9,266. Wtf Auckland!
sounds like a very boring match, guess I'm not missing out much then
