Love the commentators - they haven't been unkind but it still hurts.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

I actually think they are right though - the nix are mentally fragile, no effort in chasing 50/50 passes, standing off the attack, basically slow and not interested in the game.

Oh 100%, but as a commentator you dont harp on and on and on about it. Your job is to entertain, not make the viewer want to cut themselves.

Well I like Ned Zelich. His dad jokes are more entertaining than the game.

If them and us are both bottom, how come we're the ones getting fuc*ed?

I just don't rate AK. After today's I hope a few more people join me in denouncing him as not up to A League standard.

Patterson doing ok, makes a lot of runs in between lines, but our players either don't see them or lack the confidence to hit them.

He is one of the few players who make in out runs... when he has got the ball he has been average. Better than Parkhose though.

That's right. No MoM for you if you do not last the full 6 extra minutes.

Zelic just said that our best player was McDoyle. 

 I wonder if it was me hearing things or if Tommy really packed on the pounds.

He's generally OK. But he's part of the Fox default setting of the "The Nix are rubbish, they must go", hence he just spends the entire game running them down. And not without reason quite frankly.

Somehow almost strangely relieved the Phoenix lost, or else the hope for the season would creep it's way back in

cant blame them for how we are playing, they are commentating exactly how its happening. with 4 minutes to go we are actually chasing the ball - which we havent done all fudgeing night.
