Interesting game with fury on the up.
Probably a 2-2 draw imo.

Claims for a Jets penalty. Hoffman did the swallow dive screaming his lungs out. No penalty, justice done.

edit: Rooney, not Hoffman.

Thompson catches the NQF defence napping, tapping in Bridges squared pass unopposed.

1-0 Jets.

Two brilliant saves by Henderson post-goal. Fury barely hanging on.

Another outstanding save from 'Howler' Henderson. Claws the ball off the boot of Vignaroli inches from the line.

He's scored now though. Fouled in the box by Kohler, converts the penalty himself.

FT 2-0. Fury bottom of the table.

All over rover. Think Jets are a point behind us now, Fury last, but only 2 points behind us in 6th. Tight as a tigerr!

Yep 9 points from first to last, afte 10th won and 1st and 2nd didn't. Saw this at the backbencher. Some comedy gold in defence, on occasion.
