Great win and great way to get start getting rid of that negative goal difference. Next week we play the Wanderers so a win there and we could be in the playoffs!

Depends how they go against Victory

including all goals for and against numbers.  lowest equal with Adelaide in goals scored, but 5th in terms of goals scored against.

The only thing that is relevant  is the team position.

ah yeah, however it is interesting to me.  You didn't need to comment

We record stats other than wins for a reason.

So no opinions allowed?

I reckon there is definitely significance to how many goals you've scored and have conceded. Our defense has been pretty damn decent this season and having conceded the 5th least goals is fantastic news and hopefully we can keep it up. At the start of the season we had an awful run of games but we lost matches with tight margins like 1–0 to Sydney (not many teams can claim that). Our defense kept us in that match and several other matches.

At the same time our attack apart from Krishna struggled, especially at the start of the season, although everything did go well this weekend. Had they scored one more goal we would've rescued a draw in several situations, so both goals for and goals against are important statistics. 9 goals scored in 9 matches isn't great (and 5 goals in 7 matches against teams that aren't the Mariners). 

I read in one of the other threads that there's a rumour Marco Rossi could be leaving at the end of this season. Hopefully not because he's a crucial part in our goals conceded (keeping us in and winning us so many matches) being so low.

It read like you tried to present your opinion as fact, that's why people tend to adopt a more consilitory IMO or IMHO to provide context.

What, we have to preface our posts now ??

Bullshark

(IMO)

and what is the difference between IMO and IMHO -  is the first one dishonest ? :-)

The point is Leggy shot down someones post and then got all precious when people didn't agree with him. Either IMO or IMHO is more concilitory than an absolute "you're wrong and what you say is shark."

Looking back, IMO Leggy didnt shoot anyone down, just offered what was obviously his opinion

Then he got shot down in the next post.

See it all depends what glasses you have on when you read things..

3D glasses work best on this Forum! The red and the yellow look amazingly great.

eight is not enough. 

I was using the spirit of Dick van Patten to inspire the team. 

IMHO the only opinion that matters in this thread is that of FeverBot.

Fudgeing Shark Cod!

You know you lost control of him years ago as his intellect surpassed his creator.

Now we just have to hope he doesn't realise how smart he is or he could enslave us all.
