Defence just hasn't convinced since he lost that CB position.
 
Major butterflies tonight. We still look slow to the ball, losing a lot of 50/50s. Tough conditions though. Manny looking good and showing the way.

Estatic we're ahead.

Wake the f**k up the lot of you - midfield has been awol whole first half and no marking at set pieces.

How can you "lose" a lot of 50/50's?

Surely if it's a 50/50 you would win as many as you lose...

Caceres' first touch before he shot forcing the corner that we scored from.
 
First touch of the season - he has amazing close ball control.

You should win as many as you lose hence 50/50s. Adelaide are winning more of them (apparently, but I haven't noticed this)

50/50 means that to start with a player from each team has an equal opportunity of winning the ball, it then becomes up to the player how much they want to win the ball. for an example of how not to do it, watch Adrian caceres. pulls out of anything that isn't 95/5

That's right 2ndBest. If they shot inside the box we'd have enough for a Yoof team in a few years time...
