I'd think seriously about subbing Devlin early. Second yellow card waiting to happen 2nd half.

I thought it might have been kicking the ball away
Devlin's one they were breaking in our half.
Unless of course we win. Worried about injuries.
I hate that argument. Being a good penalty taker is a talent. Think about how better our results would've been over the years with a more confident PK taker!
foamy Masato also dived in towards Sutton when he fell over and didn't get a foul. Looking like he could get a brain explosion red card tonight.

Steph1000 How many were penalties though? They are padding his stats.

Some assists in there too.

Devlin's one they were breaking in our half. Same thing I say to WUN fans on their yellow cards - can't give away dumb fouls in transition and not expect to sometimes cop cards for it.

wilbaker I can't remember what injury Piscopo had but not the best pitch for a comeback from injury match.
Hard to play a counter attacking game in these conditions.

Sortirio probably, but dont think its a game for a playmaker that likes the ball at their feet who has just come back from injury.
Leggy
That’s a few minutes in, IMO. Not after the last twenty
Leggy we need a win here and that's very unlikely to happen. Wouldn't be the least bit surprised at a 0-0 result due to the conditions.

That’s a few minutes in, IMO. Not after the last twenty Yeah, after about 20 I thought we were doing well but then they got right on top. Need a few tactical changes/clever subs 2nd half to get anything out of this.
Yeah especially in the wet where I imagine he might go overboard with the slide tackles.
Standard foul from Devlin and he gets a yellow. Masato puts hands around Devlin’s neck and gets nothing?
Game should be called off. Shockingly waterlogged pitch.

Hamed, very attractive and 5 goals in 7 games.. yet I can’t help but feel he’s not bringing enough. Is that fair?

So far I feel we are handling the conditions a little better. Poor old Louis would be better off in a canoe down his end.
There's going to be a red or two and a few injuries here by the end of the game.

How have they got so much time in the midfield?

A bit more careful please Devlin!
Great desperation blocks by our defence.
Can’t help but feel they’re about to scuff one in.
Pretty dull game... As expected with the conditions, but Brisbane looking much more likely to score.
They are getting on top through sheet weight of numbers. Waine and especially Hemed are largely redundant for us at the moment.
Block off on Waine
Need piscopo and Sotirio on for some more movement
Maybe...what about 3 in the midfield?
Roar clearly the better side and should put a few past us in the 2nd half if we keep this up.

Can't believe I am saying this, but if ever there were conditions for Sotirio, this is it. Chase balls over the top, use pace to cause problems in the conditions...

Why are we getting over run? They’ve had a lot of territory.
Rufer one of our better long ballers. Not great with the tackle in the wet.

Considering the conditions this game should never have been played. This is when serious injuries can happen.

The way I look at it, if I have to sometimes play in soaking conditions, so should they. But it's a very frustrating watch, has ruined what would've otherwise been a cracking match.

The Taylor-Neville hugging thing during the Devlin yellow card was LOL.
Happy for Sotirio to come on for Waine. Already he’s looking nifty. When will devlin come off? We’ll die with a red card.
Could we see Charles get some mins for Tomer?
