I nearly wet myself reading the piece from Newcastle Herald on the home page:

Clearly felt like desperation stuff. So, they have to be tough and win ugly because the 'Nix are a "physical team"?

Maybe they need to review their VCR tapes from last Sunday. Apart from the odd Manny Moment, and a few Siggy Scuffles, there was preciously little physicality - it was a surprisingly passing game. At moments I prayed for them to hoof it just to ease my nerves, but noooo...they were determined to play it out from the back.... it felt like a passing game the Brisbane Roar played in the opening round. 

Shame that Heskey can't make the trip - the game will be poorer (for the Jets and for us alike) without his flash of brilliance.
