Zdrilic off:

I saw a Zdrilic goal and nobody believes me
He was sixteen yards out with nobody in sight
I saw a Zdrilic goal and nobody believes me
And what's it gonna take for Zdrilic to score tonight
 
To the tune of sneaky sound system - I saw a UFO

Frank was definitely having a kip....

Carney's goal vs Nigeria was a screamer though - must have been his good foot!

I'm not sure he's rated!!  Definitely not by those who've been watching the A-League before this year
 
Juninho looks like he's coming on.  Will be interesting...
 
Scrappy game really, not a lot of quality in the final third

&4 - Tiatto on for Moore... hard to believe they could replace Moore with someone more objectionable.

Juninho on for Zadkovich.  If this doesn't come off they'll probably sack Kosmina.

76 - Juninho pulls them apart but no one can get on the end.

Was that Brosque almost scoring lying down in the penalty box when the ball hit his head?

I don't think Hay-nel-doe is overrated. Everyone knows he can't score goals, so he isn't rated in his striking ability. However, I think he is rated for his pace and his ability to exploit space- atleast this season anyway- which I think is fair enough.

78 - Lynch, free header, right in to Bolton's hands.

Queensland look more like winning this than Sydney currently, Kosmina out !

Queensland really are nothing more than industrious in the middle of the park.  I still think the the Central Coast are the best side in the league this year, Newcastle and QLD really are pretenders.  Adelaide at full strength, Sydney and Melbourne if they sort their sh*t our are the next best sides

How does he explois space when he can't score?  Average player who had a couple of good weeks
 
Packer off, tough call with the defender right there

Packer goooooone... flattened Brosque, 2nd yellow ?  Pulled Brosque back, last defender, suspect it was a straight red wasn't it ?

We need QLD to hold out here, a Sydney win is no good for the 'nix

Seems it must have been a second Yellow, coverage said so.

Ooooo.... free kick just over the cross bar.  Nice hit.

Fair enough 2nd yellow
 
If I could sign one player in the A-League it would be Brosque.  He's got it all...

...he does have a touch of the Ferrante's

If Pondeljak didn't break so easily, he'd be on my list... Burns ? Juninho ?

Well if he is drawing defenders and the defence is wary of his pace (and supposed ability) then he is allowing space and time for sh*ts zullo and kruse on the ball. Not trying to say he is any good, just that he isn't overrated.
 
f**k McClaren has a disgusting mo.

Yet the 5 goals he's scored show how good he can be.  He just pisses me off far less than most in this league...

I was just about to say: for a striker who threatens to tear teams apart every time he gets the ball he doesn't put them away enough.

88.  Bling free kick 35 yards out wide.  Well punched, 'fisted (SNARF)' by Reddy.

This looks 0-0 for all money.

Don't count Juninho, even El Tel can't afford himBurns 2006 maybe, not that fellow who running round at the moment.
 
News do you remember Burns' comedy miss against the Knights last year at Hindmarh in about round 17 when he scooped one over the bar from inside the 6 yard box?  Knights scraped a 1-1 after 11 or so losses on the trot, I had $300 on Adelaide.  I'll always hold it against him

Burns has been injured lately, part of why the wheels have fallen off Adelaide.  They are relying on Agostino.

1:30 in to 3 minutes of injury time.  All but over.

Bet that was the last time you bet against a kiwi team too. Taught you a lesson!

Relying on Agostino is a big mistake...will be nice to see in years to come socceroos coming home at the peak of their powers, not for the retirement fund.

Any particular reason why Juninho wasn't on from the word go? Seems like madness to me.

The ongoing shoulder injury.


...and that's it.

So, no change at all this round.
