Another good shot of Patrick, right aftr Finkler scored, looking completely dumbstruck.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

To stir the pot a little: if we win this then Greenie/Des will probably be named permanent coaches. So perhaps some should we hoping we lose?

Werent they named as coaches until end of season earlier today

Not anywhere that I've seen. There were articles earlier today saying that a decision will be made before new years and that they're in the box seat at the moment.

Ok - I thought they said right at the commentary today that they were it til end of season.  I wasnt listening that closely so may have misheard

That is wonderful work from Tratt

Seems to struggle with defensive reads but looks promising moving the ball forward.

tratt does a great piece of work on that goal and then gives away a silly yellow card

Could be 4-3 at this rate

Good yellow by Tratt, stopped a potentially dangerous break away.

Ref seemed to call drop ball then refused to let Newcastle contest it. Good work ref!!

Good goal... but a poor give away from Lia gifting Jets the throw in and possession and then doesn't mark tight enough!

Good god our defence is rubbish. This is horribly frustrating to watch. In other words business as usual!

Durante twisted completely into a pretzel there

the rule on defensive contact seems to be a foul some of the time. Especially if the player hits the deck

Not looking good for us after leading twice. We need to learn how to close games out

Disappointing to concede a goal to a Mighty Boosh character.

It's hot and we still have all our subs, chuck on Fenton to run at them when they're buggered.

Fenton doesn't know how to run with the ball at feet, just cut inside and pass backwards

Bring Ridenton on for Lia, we have no middle and his passing has been honking

Different coaching staff, maybe they'll let him play his natural game.

Don't think that's going to have them quivering in their boots unfortunately. Besides we already look buggered ourselves.

It seems like you could go for a Sunday stroll and accidentally end up between the midfield and backline of both teams in this game.

Lucky we have a change in coach to really mix things up and change these repeated failings

Is playing exactly how he played in his last year and a bit with Victory. Not sure why it's a surprise.
