Match 2 vs Macarthur | Sat 9th Jan | 7.05pm | SS7

Bobby Moore vs Pele tackle there.

Not if they are sticking in crosses to non-existent strikers. Hope we've got a Plan B.

Appiah on for Hemed ? Seems to be spending more time falling over than playing.

Uh oh here we go....

What a fudgeing joke

what a fudgeing joke.

This a set up

good work deVere!

Sotirio attack stifled count at about 3 I reckon. But that's who he is- the pace, 

F off- boot on ankle by Genereo.

A league refs are cheats. But we knew that.

His eyes are closed.

You've got to be kidding me.

Fudgeing ridiculous. Rufers rolling on the ground with his eyes shut, grimacing in pain. Where's the intention in that?

Good on the commentators for calling out the BS.

Fudgeed by VAR again. What a surprise

What the shark? 

Studs into Rufer and Rufer gets carded because he is rolling around on the ground and that counts as a kick out. 

Fuuuuuck off. 

what in the actual. Rufer had his eyes closed and was falling. That is the worst decision ever.

Ah, VAR = bullshark.

Jinx

Lol. We should just go through the knee of their best player early on, so at least we get something out of it.

so rufer gets a studs up to the ankle but is the one getting sent off? lol fudge sake the refs are bad

I hope that referee gets shot for giving that a red. Whoever is in the VAR chair deserves the same date.

Absolute shark cod fudgeing decision. 

that's why the nix will  never win the title.  ?

what the fudge

One commentator making out that Rufer attacked him with a claymore. 

OK well that's us done. Not great keeping.

ahhh sotirio.

Genreau with the classic stay-down-til-they-have-a-look injury. Small part of me hopes someone cuts him in half and gives him a legitimate reason to be on the ground

Can we get Sotirio off please.

I know some people here love sotiro but he needs to learn to pass the ball ffs

double that

good test for the team.

oh my god 

Rufer probably did intend to put his foot into the guy while he was on the ground, but not a red. He was just flattened, should've been yellow for both players.

Totally Robbed.

ffs

One of the worst made up decisions against us I've ever seen... And I've been following this club since day one. 

Absolutely shocking. 

It will be overruled once we appeal I'm sure but sadly the result will stand and by the looks of it it won't be a favourable one. 

Sotirio should be subbed. One trick when he went on and a liability thereafter. FFS. Still Aussie officals happy, 1-1

Knew that Sotirio coming on wasn't good news for us, but didn't think it would result in that!

Sotirio is Appiah in disguise

Dont know why we bother sometimes - appalling decision.

Looked like protecting himself as he fell, had his hands and eyes closed. 

But yeh, we did well last season with pens and VAR, or at least that's my hazy recollection.

Still think we're good enough to win this.

I don't even see that. He's clearly got his eyes jammed shut. Unfortunately another one of those decisions that endless viewing of the super slow mo replay can impart some kind of wicked deliberate intent in a few nano seconds of action.
