I was surprised to see Cosgrove taking to the field despite his torn ligament, I wonder it that may impact him for the Adelaide game.
Without de Vries service Cosgrove is a liability IMO
He spent most of his time on the field (after 80 min or so) parked in the midfield trying to disrupt M City progression. I kept thinking whether he was the right person to bring onto the field at that time, perhaps someone like the young FitzHarris might have been more useful. But his (Cosgrove) experience and reading of the game would have helped.
And kudos for a well taken penalty, torn ligaments or not (in fact all A-FC penalties were spotless, I was totally impressed having suffered through some of our - Nix - criminally wasted pennos over the years).
