Durante Struggling

I was worried about this, he has clearly lost some pace, he was being beaten heaps last season especially when he was defending so high up the field, now he is just an angry, old man getting embarrassed all over the park.

This is overly harsh  The guy plays with passion and cares about the club from what Ive seen. He's still a decent payer too, but even if he was past it he deserves some respect.

harsh? he spent most of last season getting angry at the ref with no benefit to the team, he did the same in the recent AW's appearances. He hasn't launched at the ref tonight but you can still see his frustration at being beaten and lft behind. I'm not trying to be mean to the guy, I respect his passion as long as he learns to focus it and not let his heart rule is head.

I haven't minded our shape - just lacked some really decisive actions, whether tackling, clearing the ball or pushing forward. All a bit to tentaive for the three goals.

What are your thoughts on the giant holes at full-back? Poor structure.

Most of their better attacks have been through the middle, not out wide. 

Don't disagree, but our CB's were often being pulled wide.

Dura was literally pushing Doyle to get him to go out to the corner of the box on the left to try and block a cross for that second(?) goal.  And while he was doing that he lost his own player, who got the header for goal.    So where was Galloway at FB then?  And why is Zullo finding himself in space with no right fullback in front of him.

Something really astray there.

But 2-3 v Sydney, away at 72mins?  I'd have taken that big time before the game.

Wilkshire injures himself by jumping in. Then we kick the ball out for him? Fudge off. Stop being the Nice Guys of the league.

Is Jesus playing for us? We already have Krishna, don't seem to be helping.

I hate those little chipped crosses - about 3 from Parkhouse. Makes it so easy for the keeper. If you aren't going to cross it properly then at least go low and hard.
