How could Muscat let that little tosspot Brosque shrug him off so easily in the lead up to the 2nd goal? And why didn't Durante track Corica back and at least contest the tap in for the 3rd?

sh*t aye. This has already done all the good work of last week. Sydney are good. but man we are having an off day.

Costa on at half time. Would settle for a 3-2 loss here easy.

All Aboard the Phoenix/ All Whites Bandwagon!!

Interesting 2nd half coming up. We have shown we can do it before. Will need one hell of a turn around though.

What's sight without sound? Love without peace? Copulation without conception?

You can tell when we're playing bad - we put those silly balls from about half way into the box that achieve nothing


Very annoying that.

The only positive thing is Sarah Ho (linesman in our half), the referee is average. the other linesman is OK.

A better second half for sure . . . but is it enough.

Nix FTW.

I think I am more concerned about the injuries to Paston and Michael McGlinchey 

I say tackle him in the face.

In a salary capped league, any time you get this dominated there is something very wrong if you aren't pissed off

hoping we can get one or two even if we lose, with the table as it is our +4 is very, very important

It's pretty fair.

You're not a loser because you are realistic about the strength of your opposition.

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

Well I would question any fan who states "We're losing, who cares?".

Well, Lets be honest you have to lose sometime and I'd prefer to lose to a top team rather than a crap one.

Soon as McGlinchey went over on his ankle yesterday I thought, sh*t, I bet Ricki's (and our) luck goes completely out the window from here on in.

Well no, you don't HAVE to. Inevitably you will, but I still care when we are getting pumped 3-0 whether it's by Sydney FC or FC Barcelona!
