Season 12: Round 2

Yea, but still ahead of us in the league.

That intro was appalling. Made me want to turn off the tv.

could that have been red? pro foul, wrapped two feet around the ankles.

Agreed, the whole Fox promotion overkill this season is just a bit embarrassing. Reeks of desperation.

Arrogant prick he may be but that is a fantastic goal.

Almost as good as Tim B.

That was awful defending from Georgievski for that second goal. He actually had a look behind himself before the cross was delivered and seeing no one there relaxed and didn't even bother to track Fornarolli's late run.

City with 80 completed passes. Victory 33.

Yeah take Marcus Rojas off.

Lol Bozza

Yeah our games against Newcastle and CCM will be very important and not a given we'll win any

I thought it was better. Watch the shot from the keepers end.

Arrogant, nope, confident yes.There is a difference and if one scores a goal every two internationals one has some right to be.both.

Being a wall flower isn't an asset you know :)

our 1-2 last week not looking so bad now eh

nor Parkhouses effort against Kamau

MV sub on Broxham and Anstel. That'll have City shivering in fear.

We want 5, we want 5. Makes our result look brilliant. 4-1.....thus far

Yes it was. However, jokes, 'nix tinted glasses!

Ah those. Suppose this is the place I'll find them ;)

Nice little "impish" goal from Marco too. Enjoyable game

Yeh good ad for the league. Victory should have made it more competitive though. Dodgy defending and some poor delivery into a fairly handy VIctory front line hasn't helped. Manny showing us what we're missing too.

Did Rojas get the assist for Victory's goal? Seems like he did from what I read? 

He didn't assist it, he scored it.

Straight to a golf segment without interviews. Not even to ads WTF. That city line up is very impressive. Even the 'work horses' like Rose and Manny were superb tonight.

lololol tards

I am overseas for a conference and watched the last 10 minutes of the game on a stream that feeds off SKY coverage - it had interviews with both coaches, City and Victory (Rojas) players.  There was quite a bit of post-match analysis from the panel (maybe 10 min all up) before it ended.

Only seen the goals in the Victory game so far but its safe to say that the Victory have some serious work to do on their defence. On that Brattan goal, there was 4-5 defenders vs Kamau & him.

As was said below our b team loosing by one goal to city isn't the end of the world it turns out.

As a side note it goes to show how good is that Manny has walked out of our squad and straight into theirs, considering how good they are and how bad we were.

He really was always massively underrated by fans I reckon.

Manny underrated? Not by me! I loved the guy!

Reading the online comments about Cahill's goal, 'goal of the season, wonder strike, blabla' Long range shot, not my style. I understand that FOX and FFA have to talk him up alfter paying all the money. Bruce Kamau is a fine player, unstoppable.

Good to see Rojas instead of Berisha scoring. Victory struggling puts our game last week into perspective.

Loads of hate coming for Bozanic this morning from Victory fans as well, he has been a complete waste of a marquee slot.

except we only looked competitive when they were down to 10 men

Broich benched by Aloisi

Any reasons given?  He is usually a starter.

No, we looked competitive in the second half before that happened.

Own goal by Hingert, Newcastle 1-0

Jets looking well drilled and composed so far. They will upset a few teams this season

Surprised by Nabbout. Now that he away from MV he is starting to look quite decent.

Boogaard from a corner, 2-0

And 3-0

Clut makes it 4-0, oh dear the Roar's defence has been terrible today
