Greenacre should have done a little better than that...

Greenacre should've scored. Free header and was running on to a ball at pace...

I have to question what he's good at honestly. Don't want to be negative but I've been thinking it for a few weeks now (hopefully he'll score now i've said that)

Anyone know what radio station I can listen to the game online. I tried The Radio Network 1035AM (Wellington) but it's some guy talking about the weather.

Cheers
Piney only does the home games, and the A-League website doesn't list a partner staion for GCU
 
You might be out of luck on the radio links

Greenacre pissed with himself.  Free header at back post.

@Valeo, I think we are watching a different game - I was just about to comment about how good it was to see us pressuring them from the front.  Also think Lochy is getting up and down well, and playing the ball into space.

Is it just me or does Ifill look a bit timid?

Yep I jumped the gun a bit Lochy is playing well and getting forward pretty decent.

Gotta close down Porter a bit quicker.

Bigtobz wants the answer to the unanswerable, who has the bigger nose? Joel Porter or Jason Spagnuolo

What a run by Siggy

How is that not a yellow? disgraceful tackle

Goalie almost spills it. Very close. Ref blows up for no reason.

so getting on to half an hour in, how has it looked?  It seems like Greenie had a pretty good chance, but anything else?  have they had any?

How is Smeltz looking - fired up or like he doesn't want to get injured before next week?

All I do is make the stuff I would've liked
Reference things I wanna watch, reference girls I wanna bite
Now I'm firefly like a burning kite
And yousa fake fuck like a fleshlight

Smeltz is not even on the park at the moment. Now that I said that, he is going to score 4 goals.

We're looking to keep it tight in the mid - not give them much time and it seems to be working, Smeltz/Porter not getting a lot of ball.  At the moment we look more dangerous going forward than them.

The one good thing about Smeltz not playing for us any more and skys crap coverage is that I haven't been shuddering every time I hear a commentator call him Schmeltz.

Agreed. Need Ifill to take control in the attacking 3rd but think that his injury is hindering him pretty badly. He keeps slowing it down and then losing it.

Greenacre has the worst touch in the team..

Good ball by Lochhead to Ifiill. Not sure why he shot though.

Man. What is with Ifill. Maybe he needs more time for that injury of him. Loads of time to make something more than what he did.

Ifill had a great run but shot a split second too late... don't know why he held off shooting with his left peg? Is his injury that bad?
