Brisbane Roar vs Phoenix - Sunday, Nov 29

That sums up our night

Just hope we come back HUNGRY on Friday to atone for this poor performance.

f**k that game. Bring on Friday !

thank god thats over

You were saying?

None from me, this game is over thank f**k, now thinking positive and a return to the ROF ! Phew.

Consign this to dustbin and move on boys - fromt he first 5 mins it looked like it was going to bea bad night...

winning all the time is not necessarily good for the team

Goodbye GD Goodbye Crowd next week maybe the Nix want to rethink the offer from Yellow Fever. lol.

Oh sh*t it was Crowthers 21st as well. Poor Lad

sh*te second half.  Our defence, all 5 of them were rubbish.  Why did Ricki take Greenacre off, he was playing well.  Our finishing/balls into the box woeful also.

Nearly every game Crowther has played we have lost and conceded a considerable amount of goals.

All is not lost. It does undo our efforts last week in the 40 degree heat in Newcastle, but a good bounce back against the Tards will restore any lost faith.

But we dont.

Cue the angst in 5 4 3 2.... Jeff Vader2009-11-29 23:02:05

we lost because we didnt look hungry enough. u could see it from the start. lets hope for better against melbourne. disappointed tonight but thats life.

nah, as soon as you've got a wide defender getting done like a xmas turkey for pace the whole D is going to get pulled out of shape, especially when siggy is not the quickest either

 

Flush the dunny and move on!

I have to be honest and say I'm not as confident now as I was 3 hours ago against a league leading Melbourne who just slotted 4 next week.

Mind you it was the same with Gold Coast and we nailed 6 so....

still 6th  still

f**king pathetic performance.

Greenacre was good but no support at all. Even Ifill was not at his best.

Daniel ???  drop him.
Manny ??  what a f**kin idiot.

Sigi was very average, giving away a free kick cum goal and wasted chances up front.  Muscat was a dick, Crowther well, need not go there and Dura and Lochead guilty for the second goal in not marking properly.


I'm gutted as all the other results went our way this weekend and I felt at half time that we were on our way to 5th.

Why drop Daniel?

I hate Suncorp

Daniel wasn't too bad in the first half.

+1 mjp. Very astute assessment.

If anything, I don't think we really made that adjustment as much it was evident as far in as 20mins what was happening down that flank. Nearly every person in this forum picked it and Andy Harper, as much as I loathe him, was on the money. Oar was the man of the match for them because we couldn't play him. As much as I don't like hating on Ricki, that is his fault or to a lesser extent that of Durante as on field marshall for not making adjustments and nullifying that. Sigmund gets dragged across, the late runners slip in behind....

We should give thanks it was 4 only and if not for their poor finishing, we could have been on the hook for 7.

he was average and their 2nd goal came from his f**king about in the corner.

How about gouldie getting a run next time?

That was horrible to watch, I thought we had it in the first half. Manny's decision was stupid. Siggy practically gifted them that goal.


No sack Ricki though. The boys just fell apart.

Still..
Phoenix 'till I die

What may have made a couple of good passes but some of his touches or should i say the lack of them were very ordinary.

need to sign another wide back with some pace

+ hearfield needs more than just pace as a defensive player.  I don't think you can really ask him to be an accomplished wide back and make all the right judgements at this level

 aka, in reply to your last comment Vader - Ricki hasn't got too many options at the moment
