Jeremy Brockie (Edgeworth FC | Australia)

weak

Boo, SKC open the scoring.

SKC had the midfield and flanks to themselves so far really. 

Hope to see something from Toronto. Brockie in the game a bit now, but not influential yet.

Yellow Card Brockstar

SKC just bossing the midfield.

not too much to work with for Brockie, but should have done better with the look that he did get. Completely unmarked and both shots were straight at the keeper. Wonder which Phoenix players would do alright for this Toronto team. At the moment I'd go with Lia and Leo.  (Though I'm sure they'd not sniff at Ifill, Dura or Siggie either)

A lot of half time talk about Brockie's missed opportunity. Personally I thought he should have done better in the first instance but the rebound opportunity was actually quite tough with the half-volley and he did well to get a solid shot on goal. Perhaps I am a little biased...

Just too easy for SKC, 2-0

 jesus wept

And it gets worse, red for Lambe.

The standard of football played by TFC is well bellow A-league standard..

3-0

time for a Toronto come back and a Brockstar hattie?? whatdja reckon?

Ends 3-0, really tough night in the office for Brockie.

Torronto are rubbish.  Unless Brocks is offered coin too good to turn down there in Canada I think he'd be better back here.  I aslo wonder how tight Ryan's tightrope is!

Poor Ryan. Its all very well having loads of mana and being great with motivation and team bonding etc but at the end of the line you have to be able to coach. Thats why people go away and do coaching training. Thats why people apprenticeships under senior coaches. its turning out  a tough tough lesson for Ryan.

18th placed Toronto play away at 17th placed Chivas USA at 2:30pm.

Straight red for Chivas, yellow at worst. Horrible call imo. The crowd would be up in arms, if there was any.

Funny tho, the player sat on the ground for a couple minutes so he wouldn't get the card shown.

0-0 at HT, couple tough half chances for Brockie. TFC is just so slow moving the ball and lacks any creativity from the midfield.

nice bit of work just after the break, composure, good pass and then good shot. Unfortunately there was an off side and it was cleared off the line anyway.

Is Jezza still on the pitch? I've only got audio feed and haven't heard his name mentioned since I tuned in.

down 1-0 now

Oh yeh he's still there, pushed defender and got a header away, but free kick against him

refs been protecting the keeper and defenders a bit and turns down a peno shout there.

How was that not a penalty???

When things are going against you like that, playing a team below you who've had ten men most of the game, you lose, don't get a pen....

Maybe Brocks will be keen to come back home

Is this the end of Nelsen??

Assistant coach with the Nix in his future?

No chance. Not enough money
