Terrible penalty from Keogh.  Still, credit to Moss for the save.  Why wouldn't Castro take it?  Bet he takes the next one this season!

Thats a pen and I guess lucky he was not sent off. He had a fair chance of getting on the end of that.

Under new laws of the game, since it was a penalty it could only be a red if it was cynical, which that wasn't.

Sorry whats this? I'm not sure I follow you. I thought if you foul a guy thats basically through on goal, you are gone. Has that changed somehow?

Yep - New DOGSO rules.  Unless it is for shirt pulling, the defender doesn't attempt to play the ball, or the tackle warrants a red on its own merit anywhere in the field, it's no longer a penalty and a red.

Right. Ok. So outside the box, you can still be sent off but inside the box, its a yellow (cause they get the penalty) unless its one of those 3 you listed. Does that include handball cause surely handball would be cynical as Patrick said.

Probably depends on the situation - how cynical was the hand ball.

Fair point. That requires a lot more thinking than just reaching for the red card

That's what we need

Roly or McG getting forward with Finkler

The other one needs to stay back to baby sit Lia

Now that's bullshark Mossy got the ball. 

Nope, striker got there first, knocked it away then trailed the boot for Moss to clean him up.  Good call from the ref.

We have two fast forwards, but are pushing the ball through from too far out

McG came off for A-Rod; Doyle came on for Parkhouse about 4 mins back.

Right I missed that. McG must be the jetlag because he is better than Roly and Lia tonight.

Fudge. Thats what happens when our fullbacks push forward and we lose possession. We are so open to the counterattack.

I thought that but wondered if I was going mental - didn't he get booked for kicking the ball away?

That's a good finish from Marinkovic.  Risdon did well to cut that back to the top of the box aswell.

Team are playing like they've never met each other. Roly, Kosta, Krishna have been poor. Lia half a yard off the pace as usual. Very little in midfield at all. First touch and final ball have been shark.
