R1 vs Perth Glory | Sunday 12th Oct | 5pm | RoF

Really? Ignoring the fact we should've scored already right ?

Roly is a nutter but I'm a fan

ROLY. Don't be a cheating cunt

Referee needs to take charge of this game

can't say Roly hasn't been involved. In contrast to Rod who I haven't even noticed playing.

Interesting that Roly hasn't come off though, looks like a sure red

playing very different roles it seems. 

take off the ref

Poor attendance only 7700 odd

moss playing well

I who said pax was up around 11k

for fucks sake

Piss poor defending

pax includes all tickets issued. So sponsorship tickets, stadium membership etc.

siggie mate. gotta do better

wow-we threw that away...

Fuck sakeeeeeee

FFS

there is still time

For fuck sake! 

Dear oh dear.

Two defensive blunders, two goals.

back to the bad old days that 

This is going to be a loooooong season for the Nix. Based on tonight they look rubbish.

I have to say it was an underwhelming performance for the most part

big fan of Siggy but feel like the league has passed him by - Lia too

I thought Roly played well once he got settled early on.  He will be good for us

fucking hell Lia we are 2-1 down just pass it to Moss

if this is the best squad ever and we have truly been second best against what is regarded as a very weak perth squad, then we are going to struggle this season

It's pretty sad when you're at home, it's 1-1 and you see Vinnie coming on.

sigh, Lia

Lia.

True, I just hope those of us on here right now are no where near Welli, looked a great day to be at the game

There's nothing weak about Perth's squad. They will be there or thereabouts at the end of the season I reckon.

got a lot of work to do

As far as I can see it this was more of the same as what we saw last year.

Our midfield was hard-working but often fizzled out going forward, a bit too static and flat up front, plus defensively shaky at times and immediately punished for it.

There were however some positives, I thought Bonevacia and Burns were great.

Brockie, McGlinchy and Rodriguez were quiet.

Very disappointing, we deserved a point at least but must say this was an organized, disceplined Perth side.

Really we've lost experienced pros replaced by academy players, with WeeMac playing out of position.  The 09/10 squad is still miles ahead of this one.

On a different note why did we bring Roy on in the 89th minute, waste of time for us and him.  He should have been brought on much earlier for Brocks.

I really hope Ifill gets fully fit and quickly becomes a kiwi... we need him still.

totally. If you are going to play a mobile fast midfield then you need to have fast defenders. I don't blame Reira for any of that.  We look light weight. 

Our defense is awful

Time for the Breeze Country Night after that shit.

Basically this.

Roly, after a nervy first 15 minutes, was great I thought. A-Rod was invisible, but perhaps like someone else said it's because he's playing deeper.

The main concern for mine is that our defence is still so shaky. For a team with no real strikers except Brockie, we need to be far more solid.
