Lia has not proved that he is a thug today  ( Muscat has )  but he just keeps giving the ball away.

If you are old and wise you were probably young and stupid

Agreed. Haven't seen anything to indicate quality so far. I hope he turns it around and proves us wrong. (cunningham)


I'm not by any means saying that Cunningham is as good as Hersi but it took Hersi 5 or 6 A-League games last season to show his quality. Like the way Cunningham scraps for the ball at least.

Cunningham for Ifill. That's a good sub.

Why didn't Cunningham come off before?

Haha, our kickoff looked like some kid was playing FIFA - try and run straight through the middle and then let rip a speculative shot. Goal kick

Cunningham will be a major player when he settles. Just so refreshing to Ernie trying to make things happen in a game few sides are going to come away with any points from.

Not seeing enough of Hernandez so far.

Thanks to the brand new Fever app, $4.19 on your respective app store, I can tell you that my Four Kings sundae was superb.

To give credit to Lia and show it's not all scapegoating, he has been fine after the first 20 mins.

Ernie is still getting to grips with what he's got
he's got to hope/expect Cunningham is going to deliver, even if he turns out to be shit.  
remember our front five barely started together pre-season.  Ernie needs some time to see them against quality opposition
Happy enough.  Cunningham will need to deliver to command a start.  Hopefully he can, but still not convinced
At least we've not got a Herbert who does nothing for 65+ mins, regardless of what is going on, on the field
We are still looking underdone.  Injuries pre-season have left us short
still time to get something out of this, but WSW looking more threatening

I can agree with this but I still say it should have been Brockie and not Stein.

Amazed at how physically weak we are. We're getting out muscled by Hersi even. Ernie needs to get these guys into the gym. Dead lifts and squats.

i think he knows what he's got with Stein, saw quite a bit of him pre-season.  He's hoping for more from the others.

Hicks struggling now. Still confused as to why Riera wasn't the one to come on
