damn, anyone but mr crotch-grabber!

28’ Cross comes in from Neville on the right, Montano nods it down towards Griffiths, whose shot is cleared off the line

Half-time at Magic Park! The Newcastle Jets are leading @WgtnPhoenixFC 1-0 thanks to Joel Griffiths’ 22nd minute penalty

COYN

i know it's only preseason but I want to win these games. Bit disappointed so far

especially now against 10

need to finish this well

.... and Brockie levels

51’ Kantarovski gets a second yellow, Jets down to 10 men. The lads with an extra man advantage! Lets make it count!

60’ GOAAAAAAAAAL! Brockie beats a couple of defenders on the edge of the area and shoots past Birghitti!

76’ GOAALLL!! Flores with a delightful ball over the top to Virgili who calmly finishes past Italiano to gives the Jets a 2-1 lead

Looks like much improvement is needed before the season starts. We need to be beating teams like this during the regular season

Full-time: Newcastle Jets 2 (Griffiths 22’, Virgili 76’) Wellington Phoenix 1 (Brockie 60’)

Not looking too promising.

Your go to post, TV

Yeah if we are going to be contenders we need to be putting away teams like the Jets. The Roar did them four zip a couple of weeks ago.

it was Jets fan day - we had to play our part. lol

Man..... that is not a good sign... how ever, it is still preseason so we dont need to invest too much angst into it.... do we?

Can we really get angsty about a game we could only read about via twitter?

Hardly a torrent of info condemning us to the bottom of the table before the season has only started.

@JRBrookie scores again. Well he got a goal can't over do it, He is married I believe 

Its pre season. You can't read anything from these games

remember when we beat Brisbane preseason in Hamilton and D-Mac looked good...can't remember what happened to Brisbane after that, but...

the jets have strengthened considerably in the off-season

adrian madasci is a class defender.  should be one of the better defenders in the league if he can perform to his normal level

edson montano is an ecuador international

marco flores is, well, marco flores

jeronimo is pretty slick on his day

so, it sounds like we went 4-2-3-1 last night with roly and reira anchoring midfield?

or was it 4-1-2-1-2 with fenton and roly either side of riera and macca in behind the font 2?

or 4-3-3 with macca or fenton wide right

So do we have another game Tuesday?

I blame McGlinchey for the loss!!!

Did we get a paper bagged receipt?

I can't find on the web site what time the Nix v Sydney United is tomorrow. Sydney based supporters might like to go along too.

Just a reminder guys the pre-season game v @SydUtd58FC , 16 Sep, 7pm, is a closed game. Will post full time result.

The result is neither here nor there but I'm concerned we're still giving away soft goals (any goal conceded against 10 is soft really)

Is the 7pm our time of Sydney time?
