Abbas seems fairly one footed. Not sure of his position quite

So 2 clean sheets in 1.5 games. Has to be an improvement (sic).

Let's not concede late, after doing all that hard work obtainling that goaless draw.

Spain '82 is where it all really began for me. There were a few moments before, plenty of moments after, but that World Cup was the zeitgeist.

Perth commentators annoying me. 4-5 Perth late challenges with no ball at all. Then a dive in on the keeper gets a yellow and they give it the what a softie treatment.

We've made the 1.5 without conceding. Has to be a milestone..... this season.  Incidentally what is our longest run ever? without scoring

Yeh, not even getting to the reckless ones where there was a sliver of ball. Feel like it would have been a card by a 'Nix player, not even a foul. Still just watched the CCM tape on youtube, though without the frame of reference of what WSW got away with. First one seemed justified.

Can't remember the last time a Nix team long balled so much. It's fudgeing terrible to watch. Italiano must be the worst distributor in the league.

On the plus side, our defence looks better against a crap Perth side.

Abbas barely looks like a professional footballer to me.

So Smith on at half time? 

Remember those days at the start of the league against Sydney when we played out from the back and past and through the opposition? So long ago.

Yeah. Nuts. We were passing well at the beginning of the season and have regressed so much. Even Paracki looks poor and he dominated the first couple of games. What the hell is happening?

Understand that we're down on personnel - Krishna, WeeMac and now Vidosic are all certain starters - but jesus, this is tough to watch.

Would've liked to have seen Singh come in for Vidosic personally. We're missing someone who can actually pass the damn ball.

Is Vidosic ok? Was it a really bad tackle?

Abbas jumping over the ball and letting it run out. This dude is such a strange player - i.e. in the first half a ball he should've tried to head, he went to use his boot for no reason.

Is Vidosic ok? Was it a really bad tackle?

Just looked like a knee knock to me - which hurts badly for about ~10-15 minutes and will hurt like a bitch tomorrow, but I reckon he should be OK.

Think he could've continued; walked off the pitch in the end.

Yes those first two games looked like a promising season was ahead but it looks like the confidence has disappeared.

I got no problem with a tactical objective being hit the guys furthest away as fast as possible

It's the 25m distance of inaccuracy that makes me weep

That and hitting the post

Poor, poor work at the back from Paracki. Jeez he looks terrible at the moment.

I don't understand why we've suddenly decided to play a high line with Doyle against their fastest player? Tactical genius, is Darije.

Well giving the best player on the field the liberty of the penalty box has sadly backfired

Maybe we should tackle ourselves
