Brockie would be lucky to get 4.

As for the rest it was pleasing to watch.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

Sometimes I have the feeling you don't entirely rate Brockie.

Brockie is doing the same job as Greenacre... working hard, putting pressure on D and has three assists to his name after 3 games.

Whilst I\d love to see him scoring, to say he's doing nothing is simply not right.

Burns and Boni look immense.

Brockie's misses are creating chances for others ..weird thing to say, but happy to keep him there at the moment while we're winning.

No one has said he is doing nothing.

I thought Alex was awful. Horrid first touch cost as at least 3 good breaks, passing was off the mark so often. 

If we ever lose Riera we are screwed. Think a nine is pretty generous for burns.

Burns only failing this year is his finishing when in a one on one position. How many has he missed so far this season? Aside from that, he provides such a great spark. So good having a player who wants to run at the defence... and be successful.

Think he's missed 2? And he almost screwed up that one today; got a bit lucky - bit good persistence. Definitely something to improve on.The fact that he's still scored a few is a testament to how many chances we are creating.

However, I think his all-round game has been fantastic and much better than I expected.

That can't be right can it? I was sure we were playing with one main central striker/penalty taker, and I can't see his name on the list?

Missed one against Perth, one on one with Vukovic and one against Jests, when he slowed down and the defender got back to take it off him.
