i understand that christie no longer good enough for the all whites (or is he really?)
but i don't understand the hate
he's a nice guy and very inoffensive
he tries hard and by new zealand standards (especially at the time) has played at a decent level
we are not spain. we have a long track record of midfield grafters; players that lack the flashy skills, but try to do a job
hardly a hateable offence on his part
Three for me, and two for them.
Dragon's lineup against WiaBOP : Highfield, Terris, Boys, Schwarz T, White, Kamo, Keelly, Moya, Morrison, O'Breien, Mitchell. Subs: Murphy, Schwarz D, Marsland Yamamoto.
KO 1pm
Dan Terris nods home from a long Danny Boys throw to make it 1 - 0 after 7 mins over WaiBOP..

25 mins gone and waiBOP 0 Canterbury United 1
Canty down to 10 after Steve Morrison receives a red card on the hour. 65mins now gone still 1 - all.
Shoeless
What's sight without sound? Love without peace? Copulation without conception?
Keith had Morrison training on his own on Tuesday. Too many pints at the races?

Grumpy old bastard alert
After losing to waibopalula last week must win - and win well - vs Wandering Kids SC this weekend.
Kotahitanga. We are one.
Morrison seemed to be involved a little but knee was bandaged and watched the majority.. more interesting was Luke Marsland and Murphy training by themselves up the other end of Tullett, possibly too many drinks for those two
International clearance all done for Federico Marquez so will be be heading north to players Wanderers SC tomorrow.
Dan Terris is away with Juylan Collett back this week so likely to be a straight swap.
Sounds like fun and games down south the reports on their YF Forum board that Tom Batty has been dropped for Southern United after being player of day in the opening round. Sounds like the fan down sounth not too impressed with ths new SU coach.

I see on the ASB Prem website that Murph was listed in squad but now showing as
6- Chris MURPHY - out
after last week's limp effort, how worried are you guys about losing to a bunch of toddlers this weekend?
That would be a very bad thing for the dragon season hopes!
Kotahitanga. We are one.
I think take the Wanderers side at your peril. These kids will play and acquit themselves well.

Uh oh. Canty down 1-0 to Wanderers after 18 minutes....
I let my guitar speak for me
Whew, Marquez gets a header and it's back to 1-1 almost half time.
I let my guitar speak for me
HT 1 - 1 with the game starting ten minutes late due to late arrivals of the Dragons - plane must have run out of puff..
Next goal for Canterbury will be their 250th ASB Premiership goal.
And there it is. A long throw that bounces over the keeper (although he gets a touch) and we're up 2-1. OG or the thrower?
I let my guitar speak for me
Has to be an OG. You cannot score direct from a throw.
Three for me, and two for them.
Still 2 - 1 to Canty with 10 to go was Kamo chopped down on area but no penalty given.
Late late goal for the kids! 2-2. Is that final?
Kotahitanga. We are one.
FT 2 - 2 - Dragon supporters get down to ASB Foorball Park tomorrow at 1pm to support the Pride in the top of the tavle clash with Northern in the ASB Women's Premier League.

1 point from 6 and facing ACFC. interesting start to season.

From what I hear we were pretty much played off the park in the first 45 but scored from a lucky long throw. Keith no doubt put the wind up em at HT and we improved but kids being kids: never say die, came back and got a deserved equaliser.
So did we underestimate them or were they simply better than us in the first stanza?

Team obviously missing Claps & maybe Wellbourn in support of Kamo upfront this year?
Who knows?! - tuff one this weekend no doubt
