Did Brockie miss three chances?
Some of them seemed gettable from where we were sitting ...
I hope he has his confidence back since his goal against the Victory ...

im begging to think brockies form was more luck than class, because even when he was scoring goals the runs/touch etc were the exact same as current form brockie.

So his 16 goals in 24 appearances last season were luck?
He should have bought lotto with that kind of luck.
Correction: He should have bought ME lotto with that kind of luck.

I have to agree (I don't really like dumping on the players). For me the frustrating part is how he drifts in and out of the game (seemingly out for a lot of them). There has been the odd game where he gets more involved, looking for the ball or helping out when we are under the pump - which makes up for lack of goals in the game.
But his job is to score or set them up so if he is not doing anything different from last year then either the opposition has got better or he has been riding the luck.

I will say however, over the last few games he's been working alot harder to get involved in the play. Something that i found most frustrating about his play before is his general laziness, maybe Ernie's had a word or he himself has looked into what could help improve form.

Brockie has played about 113 A league games for 35 goals.
In 42 games for the AW's he has not scored.
You can take whatever you like out of stats I guess but I believe he is a pretty striker.
If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

At least one of his goals last season was the result of very good fortune.
But something that gets overlooked in this discussion is that Brockie took most of our penalties last season (and scored from all of them if I recall correctly). Take those away (or, conversely, if he'd been taking penalties this season with the same strike rate), and it's a bit of a different story.

Hmm, I thought it was around 4. Probably should've checked first.

Ernie will either get more out of him or he'll sit on the bench a lot more.

3-0 over Newcastle. Benji's infamous miss which cost Brockie the first ever Nix hattrick too.

Well, that was the status quo for pretty much everyone at the beginning of the season.... some (Lia, Stein) obviously responded.
Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days
