How nice is it without Bye FC (and WU) to have same games played table week to week
I find it a little weird how NZF actually list Bye Week on the men’s National League Champs table at 0 points. Shouldn’t Bye pick up a point per round since technically it always earns a nil-all draw?
No teams have won or lost both their first two games (presuming Adelaide don't find two very late goals here). Cool that things are so equal, with two of the three winless sides being two of the wealthier teams. Probably more of a case of the haves regressing towards the have nots but should make for an entertaining season regardless
Aucks the only team to not concede a goal. Hopefully Adelaide can fix that on Saturday.
Auckland may have a sputtering attack force at the moment, but their defence - even with Pinjaker still out and Smith gone back to UK - seems to be holding up as good as before. Paulsen, Sakai and DeVries are doing their job. (Edit: Woud, not Paulsen - thanks Yakcall).

I don't think Paulsen is doing his job for Auckland, seeing as he is in Poland. Think you mean Woud

Of course, apology. Either an early onset dementia clearly setting in, or the long offseason not helping :-)
Brisbane 0 Melb City 0 Perth 0 Melb Victory 2 - first home loss of the season goes to Perth. By contrast the Perth Women are at the top of the Women's league table. image.png78.83 KB
Early days but wonder if Kosta still thinks it was the right move.
I guess it depends if he was offered more $ at WSW. But if he can’t score while WSW being shark like he did last season he may regret it, if missing out on the WC
Al-Taay at WSW too (or Kraev depending which you were counting).
They probably look at their bank accounts and dont really care. Plus I'm not sure we sign Eze if Kosta stays and I'm happy with that trade.
With all the recent chat about the locker room being better this season and Kostas obvious (and justifiable) on-pitch frustration last year, I cant help but wonder...

I would cut Al-Taay a lot of slack. He came to us from WSW and he returned there again. And despite some suspicious comments here, we can't really question it when he said it was for family reasons. Western Sydney is where he is from and where his family is, unlike Rudan's relocation from Sydney to Melbourne via Wellington.
