Good game so far. I really hope the crowd is over 8k, fingers crossed. very entertaining so far, good work by lia chasing down those balls ive noticed and really getting in amongst it

Oh sh*t, it's Invisible Brown out there today. Not looking to give options in midfield, sitting on his heels, not going hard into tackles. Man, I hate it when that version of Brown turns up.

Slow start to the half, with the boys unable to string passes together. Got into it after awhile, but some of the decision-making is still too ponderous, and through balls going after defence have recovered. A little lucky to still be at 0-0 with Perth finishing strongly.  wolfman2009-11-08 17:59:09

Ref has been mixed - two soft yellows for us, but some "strong" challenges going unpunished. A bit of niggle off the ball as well.

Unless Ricki makes some wise subs I think we are going to run out of gas. 3 or 4 times Perth have burst out of defence and outnumbered our defenders by 1 or 2 men. Surely they'll make one count eventually.
 
Must say, it's a very entertaining game though. We aren't playing well but we still look dangerous if we keep the ball on the ground and try to get in behind them, rather than that long ball crap.

+1 Still too many crosses coming from in front of the penalty area, including a shocker from Lia after Daniel put him through with nobody between him and the goalline.

No ads on my feed, but promotion for the AWs game. Can someone clear confirm the Kick-off time for me? TV just advertised 7:30, but local network here in Thailand are advertising 8pm (allowing for time diff)

Subconciously worried about getting injured perhaps? Also the 4 yellow cards might be playing on his mind too.
 
I'm not making excuses for him though - he has been average, I agree. But the whole team has been average.

Excellent, i'm on my way from the airport to the stadium on the airport bus, listening on radiosport.co.nz but was worried it might be a bit delayed. Hoping to catch the last 30 mins. :)

No chance - this ref will only do it for stuff like:
 
Taking your shirt off
delaying a freekick
Shooting after the offside whistle
 
Chopping a player after being beaten - never.
