Pre-Season 2018/19 - vs Victory

Bentleigh score off a corner 0-1

Holy shark! 1:0 Greens

What’s wrong with the keeper? Not moving!

1- 0 down, conceeded off a corner, Fox missed it and they nod it in.

We've looked more threatning in general, despite our lack of possession. Would like to see us press a little higher.

Keeper wasn’t at fault

If Lia is no longer playing, but we leak in a goal, is it still his fault?

That’s it. The season is doomed. 

Rudan out!

Fox in midfield is not working at the moment

That’s a deserved red tbf, honestly surprised he was only given a yellow for the disgusting challenge on Cacace

Bentleigh down to 10!

I found a live tweeter feed from the Bentleigh Greens here:

Well that's fortunate for us... we look like a well structured team that doesn't know what to do in possession currently.

Second commentator can shut his mouth, jesus christ. Calling it a bad decision by the ref and saying it isn’t a card because he didn’t mean to go studs up into his ankle

saying it wasn't a red - when in fact it was a second yellow! still fudgeing questioning it. Clear second yellow and therefore red!

He got him high up on the shin and went down the leg - clear second yellow, so a clear red.

We looked a million dollars this time last year, lost and had a sharke year... perhaps this is a sign, starting badly, but we have a great season!

second commentator is clearly a BGR fan, everytime they are on the ball its "we this and we that"

Fox does not have the touch required of a DM.

Bad news about Bratten.. hopefully he is ok. didn't seem like they're was anything in the challenge.

Just hope we can come back from here. Have faith that we'll be able to roll Bentleigh in the second half against 10 men. Don't need any more fodder for the Aussie critics to feed off in the lead up to the A-League season. Fox in midfield sounds like it's not working.

Have fudgin' fan pass...no use with pop up channels lol

So for the second half, do we get Doyle for LB and Cacace to DM with Kopczynski?

Or, more likely, Rufer for DM with Kopczynski?

Rufer might come on as DM?

Link play too slow so far,no cohesion - looks like preseason ffs

Two yellows for sure

COYN

I posted here some days ago that the team looks great on paper but developing cohesion will take a while.Shame I cannot see the game, but it sounds like lack of "team awareness" might be a problem tonight. Would be good to win against ten people tonight and get a chance to play another FFA Cup game (round of 16), which might give us more competitive practice before October.

First impressions of Kopycinski not great. Was invisible when they had 11. A player of his background should be demanding the ball and running the show against a team like this. Burns has been awful again. Hopefully 2nd half brings a big improvement 

Anyone playing well?

Bentleigh Green, except their #19 (James Kelly).

Second half any better?

So if it's a draw its extra time then penalties,no replay I assume?

Second half any better?

nope

I am silently egging the Nix on. I have a $1 on a draw!

the first touches in the final third of the field are pretty dire at the moment

Ben Waine on, Burns off

Good in both respects, really want to see Waino and Burns has been shark

It's all so static. No urgency and based on this will be a very long season

Nichols, Burns and Kopa have been disappointing. Lowry, Cacace, Taylor been good, everyone else pretty average
