All Whites vs Fiji | Tue 28 Mar | 7:35pm | RoF

Aside from his lovely assist?

Dane has got better as the game progressed - happy to see.

balls from left balls from right..classic

Needs more marauding Box...

Lewis has looked sharp

so is Taylor there?  Hard to tell what's going on really from the Radio Sport coverage.  Really hope that there is some decent highlights available somewhere!

How is Shane playing? Has had a number of chances but can't tell how bad the misses were.

No clear cut chances - doing alright, but nothing to feet, more aimless crosses for him to try and make something of.

pretty much an aimless game.  Need to try something else as plan A isn't that flash.

As of the 63rd minute, 41 balls in the box... 1 goal. 

Hope he does well for the AW's.

Was never going to make the  Aussie side.

So which player only has one testicle? (Thats also Assuming Mossy hasn't lumped forward yet)

Nice goal!

finally..

Thomas 2!

Waikato lads have stepped up this window

Thomas 2

Rojas 1

Wood 1

Really Doloros - how many 17 year old Aussies getting game time in the A League.

To write him off so young is crazy! Either way, happy he is with us.

 technically three missing..lumped is an unfortunate word choice tho.

That's one of the best All White goals I have seen in a long time.  Patient at the top of the box, confident passing on the deck, and a nice cross and finish.

Smeltzy has been VERY involved, hasn't found the finishing product though. 

10133 croud

Why? Does Mossy only have 1 nut?

Doyle showing some technical ability

Dyer gets another cap : )

Roy and Dura having some words at the end. Wonder what that was about.

Doyle was excellent in my opinion

I'm pretty happy with that - I would have liked a few more goals, but its hard to score against a team with everyone in the box defending, even when they are a weaker team.

From memory Marinovich didn't have to make a save, bar for collecting a long distance shot that rolled to him. We kept possession pretty well and transitioned nicely.

Good to have Tommy back - seems to have acres of time, with him, Reid and Boxall we have a strong back 3. 

Dissapointing score with a very strong AW side in front of a decent crowd.  

Why does Dyer keep getting caps?  Single handedly devaluing the AW shirt.

Didn't Jeremy Christie play for the AWs?

I can't remember a game in recent history where we have dominated an Island team so clearly... we often struggle with their physicality / pace etc, but tonight, nothing.

They were clearly second best - something we don't see enough of.

Hudson should be at the helm of the Phoenix!!!

10000 crowd - ✅

Win - ✅

Still cops sharke from fans for not doing enough - ✅✅✅✅✅✅✅

True that BUT he at least was a pro team academy product and played professionally for a number of years.

Puts it in perspective that one of the players starting for Fiji was playing for Mangere United. 

Thomas has a bit of a Dutch accent mixed with Te Puke lol

Likely to play Tahiti in the final.

Dura: "So Des tells me we're definitely not in the squad this week. You wanna go get a beer?"

Roy:  " Heck yes! Give me a moment to do this interview..."

Shoulda put Themi on ahead of Dyer. As he said, all his family are here and he's come from the other side of the world from a professional club...
