R14 vs Melbourne Victory | Sun 20 Jan | 7pm | SS3

here comes Cillian!!

Sitting too deep now, keep the pressure up and press Melbourne. 

If we sit back off the man and deep we're going away from everything good that we did in that first half. We invited that goal, and Melbourne are too good to just have time on the ball - they will pick us apart. They have made some changes though and have pushed the wingers wider and dragging Cacace and Fenton wider and out of shape. 

Will be interesting to see how Rudan copes with the challenge.

Kurto is magic

Doyle has got to do better with Kosta! feel like Kopa would do way better.

Kosta is ripping us a new one. He needs to pull a hammy!

That is the first time I have ever seen Kurto stood up by a shot, with no dive.  Superb judgement to see it smashing the post.

dura down Fox on???

we need to wake the fudge up

stand down dura's back.

Deng is goddamn awful...

I think it is their 15 min of pressure after which their intensity (if they do not score) will drop off a bit.

Only Kosta has the fitness level equal to our guys.

will be interesting to see if Singh can hang on for much longer.

Krishna needed to find Cillian there

I can see us losing this 

wrong option Roy!!!

Lord Krishna that was bad

Bit greedy there

Was a great through ball by Rufer.

Not okay to stop playing like that!

theres a muscat style tackle!!

Baena (24) is twice the player the man he replaced (Josh Hope).

In contrast, Broxham is asking for a second yellow.

refer has impressed me tonight

he and Fenton have made a massive difference in tonights first half. Mandi too has made an impact.

Both of them, ref and Rufer :-)

"both players playing for it" says the commentator in the Victory shirt, but only one went in studs up though, didn't they.

Every time we lose the ball I expect them to score.

wrong nix..

Adam Peacock (who normally hosts the FOX Sports HAL show) is much more of a gentleman than the usual ex-Soccerro standard of Robbie "Slattery" Slatter and his cohosts.

Didn't realise we have the most goals in the league from outside the area.

or that Krishna's 43rd equalled the most goals for a fijian in an aussie league

Singh needs to come off for Burgess. Clearly tired

Damn you Kosta, why do you have to play so well today? Love watching him when he's in his prime though.

Think this could well be doyle's last start he has been made to look suoer foolish against Kosta. Longballs havent been flash either.

we just cant keep the ball. 

Fox on for Fenton - nope Doyle.

We need Mr Sherry to bang one on for some breathing room. 

well done Fenton

Come on Phoenix!

weird sub that

Kosta has been ruining full backs all year. Bit rough to say that dolye is done because of him coming up against a top player of the league.
