Reid did like a bit of the old hoof-it-up too though.
Its not like the all whites didn't play long-ball lol
From Dompost - quote from Ricki
Asked whether his tactics needed reviewing, he said: "We're not a long-ball team. It may have looked that way but we certainly haven't been that for the last three years."
Has he told the players this!
Have no other choice when our midfield 3 are so ineffective. Elliott has to step up and show the form he did for the All Whites.

What? The All Whites long balled even more than we do. Elliott recieves plenty of the ball.

Relax, Ricki has everything sorted. We are not a long ball team, just a kick and chase team. We play like a rugby team, hoofing balls up to the front as much as possible. All Whites also plays the same way but remains King of draws. Could it be the secret tactic of Ricki?

Or WIllis Street. Just North of the corner with Dixon Street.
You can give Granville and the Hobbit stick there and talk rubbish about the Phoenix.

Full on Nix kits tonight.
(1 x supporter's polo, 1 x bertos finals T, 2 x stripeys, caps, tracksuit tops, bandanas, scarves, flags)
If we don't win then we will need to use the lucky hand clappers on Saturday (and also have some thundersticks from last season) - Ricki, please don't force us to use them.

Nah!
The players didn't talk to Sam W so as a result I'm not going to turn up and I'm sure all the Doom Post readers won't either.
(we'll just look a bit silly walking round town in nix gear @ 7 pm shouting out "who are ya" to random passers-by)

We have bouts of "Oh Wellington ... Is so much fun... Oh Wellington is so much fun.. we've got the wind, the rain and the Phoenix, oh Wellington is so much fun"
Maybe because of the road trip thats involved, and the bought snacks and meals that go along with it...

Yeah that was tragic. Hopefully something is done to recognise that. Maybe not this game at such late notice but Saturday definitely.

Or Hearfield to left-back, Muscat to rejoin Lia and Brown in midfield with Daniel, Ifill, Bertos the front three.
