Round 18

A red hot Adelaide host a stuttering Sydney tonight. Can the newly acquired Carney turn the tide for the Sky Blues?

Nice early goal for Adelaide, Sydney have to try and play football now ....

Well that came out of nowhere, Simon with a diving header to level things up at 1-1

Adelaide makes it 2-1, somehow they scored with 6 defenders in the box

Sounds like a good game to watch.

Holosko makes it 2-2!

Great goal from Sydney 2-2

Mauk hits one out of stadium when it was easier to score

Sydney on top atm, looking most likely to find a winner

And it ends 2-2.

Roar hosting CCM followed by the Flare Derby, Victory vs WSW.

Reckon Roar 3-0 & Victory 2-1

North opens the scoring, 1-0

Maclaren makes it 2-0

And Corona makes it 3-0

Red Card CCM Slippery Fish Pen 4:0

That sounds quite watchable. Why was I watching cricket? I've become my dad. The transformation is complete.

No goals, first flares. Game stopped. Some Wander idiots.

Berisha  scores

I'm going to this same match-up at AAMI Park at the end of March in my 1st ever game in Aus. It's gonna be rabid. I'm not sure if I'm more or less likely to be assaulted if I wear my Phoenix top.

Yellow card to Jamieson for removing the foam spray.

I think it was more for the argueing with the ref

Someone needs to throw a dildo at Kevin Muscat. They won't get it back though.

Cool how Victory score through the smoke created by the WSW fans!

Are any female fans able to accomodate?

Male fans throwing them might put him off more!

More depressing is that the Jets are 2-0 up against Melbourne City.

FFA has given WSW until 5pm (AEDT) Wednesday afternoon to show cause why they should not face sanction for bringing the game into disrepute

Wet bus ticket metric will apply.

For goodness sake. These issues flare up regularly.

But they are all innocent little cherubs

Punishment = wet bus ticket for the FFA's darling club.

Aguilar gets two match suspension Ascroft and Melling one.

Iacopo La Rocca cited by MRP for an incident in last week's match. Has until tomorrow to make a submission

Can we win by default??

Adelaide’s Iacopo La Rocca handed three-game ban for elbowing Sydney FC's Matt Simon during 2-2 draw #ALeague pic.twitter.com/Xxo0NMYTp8

Shark - and I thought La Rocca was going to get an Order of Merit or shark for services to football.

RBB"s response to the 50k fine and 3 points deduction (suspended) handed down by the FFA

The RBB are idiots. I used to think it would be harsh if the Wanderers lost points because of a few idiots but surely the team can sort it out. If they lose points now, I don't care. The club has a responsibility to sort out its idiots.

The rbb need to self police, they have had enough chances. It would suck for the players if they lost points but a 50k fine to the team will do nothing to the rbb. Maybe a lockout like they do in Italy.

I am surprised they did not get a behind closed doors game punishment instead of a fine or points lost. They will probably see this as a victory and celebrate by letting off a few more flares.
