True, but what's a defensive player doing coming on at 3-0. Maybe try to stop it being 5-0??


In fairness Johnson hasnt been great, so it was the obvious swap... Maybe Dodd into center back and McKain into DM would be more useful?

Horrible, horrible performance, doesn't bode well for a good crowd at the next home game.

Clueless, leaderless inept display.
 
For those not watching...are there ANY postives at all to take out so far?
 
I've also got mates in Auckland texting asking how long RH is going to last

Herberts tactics and subs leave alot to be desired. Last year he had excuses but we've recruited well and had plenty of time too. Definitely need to give him a few more games before he's seriously questioned tho.

Stu Jacobs ?
 
I still have faith in Ricki,  i just think we need someone to take control on the pitch.  Smeltz does it when he plays with his effort, but we dont seem to have a true leader out there

My favourite part of the game so far was just now when Travis Dodd came off an Jason Spagbol and his nose came on.

I'd be inclined to drop McKain and try Dodd and Durante together. After the great pre-season Mckain's been a huge disappointment - he and Durante seem to have no understanding.

The goals were all soft.
Lack of team chemistry.
Better f**cking sort it out next week.
