Hate to be so negative early, but eze looks shark… got beaten twice,poor first touch, oh boy
I did mention he looked like Sasse when he first signed when you compared the highlights. Everyone here seemed fairly enthralled by the highlights though - or at least a little too hopeful. I haven't seen anything to prove me wrong just yet.
Give him a chance though and all that I guess. I thought Sasse had buckets of potential but never quite found it in the ALeague. Hoping Eze will be different

Always the kicker with highlights. They never show the lowlights
Hard to see Twose or Astle or even Danny Morrison in shades saving anything from this. Depressing. Chief needed a sub at least at half.
That’s any positives of the cup run flushed. Should have come out swinging with our best team. Now we put our pre-season new transfers up against a very confident team and everyone got squashed.
4-0 is not a fitness difference, it's an unacceptable result. Been coached off the park by superior game plan and mentality by semi pros with real jobs.
There is no world in which a pro footballer will be happy with Chiefy as a coach, he will lose the room fast.
Their is a reason why Kosta didn't re-sign and looking at all the NZ Super Rugby teams will give you the answer.Monto

We went over 40 minutes without a single shot, and we're almost at the full 90 and we've had just one on target. I don't care that we're in pre-season and Heidelberg are an experienced and well oiled unit. This is our 4th match in the past month, and we've had 6 weeks of training. If we're not in the bottom 2 or 3 this season I will be amazed. Remember when losing 1-0 to bentleigh greens or to the Strikers on pens was embarrassing?
We were doomed as soon as we figured out we weren't going to be able to dump the imports. Nagasawa and Ishige are painfully average.
This is our third competitive match. No excuse for preseason jitters now.
Chelfy and Dome OUT.
Edit: And replace Chiefy with Heidelberg's coach.
Ive seen 2 comments now asking for this. I agree this is quite awful but do you guys genuinely believe this will happen? Has anyone ever been fired over an Aus cup loss?
No Aleague team really cares about it until they get to the semis
Embarrassing and sad. A 2-1 loss heck even a 2-0 loss is somewhat digestible. What has improved since last season on this display?. One could put it down to pre season this and motivation that but it’s not a good look for the team. Chiefy should be praying he’ll survive till mid season
How can they expect anyone (even die-hard fans like us) to show up and pay good money to continue to watch us lose like this.
Only silver lining for me is 30 mins in the first half we looked alright, and LBS had his best game that I've seen. Otherwise, it's all more of the same and nothing to be excited for, for the new season.

They are an experience and well oiled unit, that also all have full time jobs outside of football. And still made us look like the amateur side.
seen a few chipped speculator passes today. is that symptomatic of there being no real plan or openings up top?
teams do it quite often to bypass the press - don't have to be wedded to playing through all the time. Means teams can't just push up very aggressively.

I have no idea what the second part of that means, but I can understand in terms of Kosta not re-signing. I'm sure Chiefy knows his shark, and is probably a great analyst and assistant, but his first season got papered over by what was very accidentally the greatest team in Nix history. Surman and Paulsen. Old and Kraev. Zawada and Kosta.
