Are we winning lads?
Wrong thread I know but Wee Mac leaving CCM to go to Japan.

My verdict on the first half:
It's just like our previous games, we create some chances but don't capitalize and then concede finding ourselves trailing...
Don't be too hard on Brockie's miss... It's actually a lot harder to score that than what it looks like. The ball bounced high and its difficult to raise your leg and wrap your foot around it especially while running at it...
Actually the biggest cock up was when Huesegems was running towards goal and didn't cross it over for Brockie to tap it in. That should have been a goal, Brockie's miss later on would've been a bonus.
I agree with what's been siad earlier, Earnie can't be blamed. Yes Ricki won us a few games last year so what?
It wasn't pretty and we still finished bottom.
Now we're playing better football and building a platform on which to build on.
Earnie is the right man, what needs to happen is bring in a quality RB or/and LB, and another striker at least.
Earnie knows what players he needs and he will make it happen.
Things will pick up! Keep the faith
Thought it was a legitimate penalty - push in the back. Ref been calling for less than that before
That little bit of play by Cunningham tells you all you need to know about him: great intercept, terrible followup pass.
By my count 'yellow army' has been going for 14mins, with no end insight... whats the record?
Fuckin legend mossy!!!
67th minute. Now is the time the Nix have to step up and start controlling the game...
That's how you take 3 points home, bossing the game in the final 20 minutes.
Can't allow the Roar all that possession, you're asking for trouble...
I swear that ball took a bobble. Just came up perfectly onto his foot.
We are cursed.
We don't even look like scoring so I'd say that is another loss.
Told you so. Give them time, give them space, hand them a goal. Week in week out the same story.

Another shot over the cross bar...
Dont they teach footballers to put their chest over the ball in this part of the world?
It's not that hard...
Can we just give up and default the rest of the season? All the nix are doing is fucking up my weekends.
The most frustrating thing is we aren't even playing *that* bad - we just aren't quite there and keep giving away stupid fouls.
Thought Riera was horrid tonight - Brockie too. Both shouldn't be playing for us. Riera is so bad that Lia doesn't actually stand out as a poor player anymore. On at least 4 occasions he gave away the ball in our half leading to a Brisbane attack. Can't pass, can't tackle without fouling, can't head - what's he there for?

Brisbane are complaining about that pen? He hasn't been red carded too has he?
And Franjic took a big dirty dive in the box in the first half..
sauce for the wee mac rumour?

That was better tgan last week. But clearly not good enough
The tactic looked like who could foul Broich the most.

So they should. There was no contact. Cunningham just cheated.

Both pens weren't pens, for mine.
Ref had an absolute horror game. I counted 5 blatant handballs not called.

I admit I'm quite surprised that Riera is so highly thought of. Didn't think he was that bad in the game but, yes, I also noticed those really poor passes under no pressure when we had a lot of men forward, meaning we escaped a breakaway goal by the skin of our teeth.
For me he's definitely not a step up on either Sanchez or Alex Smith. At least Smith was good in the air. For me a very questionable import signing.
