Cant argue with that showing for the first match of preseason, while players are just arriving back from Olympics and age group OFC comps.
Good audition from a few youngsters to earn some minutes that mean something. Walker, GSR, Gillion, AKH, Hughes, Loke and Sheridan (in no particular order) all upping their stock for mine while Conchie was poor and LKH uninspiring. Good to get some minutes in the legs of Rojas, he'll need to be built up slowly and its only going to be up from here!

Quote from above by YH: Conchie was pretty much anonymous which was disappointing for me as I expected him to really push to be involved in that midfield this season - Even with the strong competition he faces. Can't recall a single really nice positive bit of play that he was involved in tonight. Maybe that's harsh, but I'm really wracking my brain and can't think of anything of note at all. A missed opportunity for him to show what he can offer.
I didn't see the game but from what I've seen and read about Conchie, he really doesn't seem all that great. I've never been impressed by his performances as a Nix player and he's not shown much when in and around the AW/Olympic environment.
Has he been over hyped the way Christie, Pelter, Draper and Old were back in the day?
