Well dosnt feel any better after a nites sleep.Thoroughly sick of arriving at the end of a season with the feeling that we really havnt  performed any where near to our potential or lived up to the hype that we get told by the powers that be.

All i ask is give us a team that plays with the passion of their fans and those in charge stop feeding us BS and treat your long suffering fans with the respect they deserve.Really questioning if its even worth membership as there certainly isnt much in the way of benefits.

Imagine what Watto would have done to that poor bucket if he were a Jets supporter then... their last playoff game was *that* playoff against us.

Shows Watson cares at least. I'm not sure I'd write him of as an A League player just yet. A decent strikers coach could make something of him. He's got the raw goods. Strong bastard who can really hold a player off, just needs some game sense and to really work on his touch. In all honesty, I'd probably rather play him than Kosta Barbershop at the moment.

Pity he did not show that on the pitch.

That should be Watson's A-League swansong really. Shame because I always like to see a local boy come good. 

Incredible stamina. No shame. Yellow Fever.

That's pretty harsh. He had just chipped the keeper and was following through to try and turn it in and go kneed and kicked twice in the head. 

That's a crap thing to have happen in your last chance to push for a contract. And we didn't ask enough about Theo- he's got priors and I don't think he was carded for dangerous play at the least. 

He wasn't in the greatest form, but always did everything he could. Probably needed to form a better partnership with Krishna...

Of all the players in the team he's not the worst offender for commitment. Playing in a Phoenix shirt seemed to mean a great deal to him.

Agreed. I just don't think Watto is even up to Matt Simon skill level standards, which is the biggest indictment I can give.

Krishna and Bonevacia are the best players we have. We're losing one. I don't feel confident going into next season with Finkler replacing Bonevacia completely; the guy can't even run out a whole game. Bonevacia has fallen off the rails a little bit and plays like a 12 year old with an Xbox controller, but it's hard to blame him considering the lack of quality he's dealing with.

I would stick with Watto.

A new coach could change everything for him.

We were close to making the six.

We made the six - the six worse defensive teams.

However, though Perth made the play-offs, they were considerably worse than us defensively.

Melbourne City conceded only two less than us.

The top six for goals conceded in order:

Perth and Newcastle = 53

Central Coast = 52

Phoenix and Adelaide = 46

Melbourne City =  44

Big Pete 65, Christchurch
