R5 vs Newcastle Jets | Sat 4th Nov | 9:50pm | SS1

 .

Finkler out, Parkhouse in.

Finkler has been dragged. Kalezić obviously sees him as this week's #designatedscapegoat

Gui Finkler replaced by Parkhouse

sensational save from smith, but ffs our defence looks like a dog's breakfast

Hallelujah

Um, so why is it everyone else's fault but Paracki's? He is an extremely experienced pro footballer. It was an appalling error, no matter what the circumstances.

no doubt the first was Paracki's error

not the second though

Jefs tactics - lots of up and unders aka Gary Owens

Can I just say that Smith has been a shining light today, a few beauts pulled off by him. Definitely his best game so far by a long way

I don't think that anyone has said that things will improve immeasurably. People have said that Finkler was terrible in the 1st half, which you have somehow taken exception to. He was deservedly dragged, and if we end up losing 8-0 it will still be the correct decision.

I wonder if Keegan has any school mates who could play

#finklersfault

Fudgeing hell Finkler what were you doing there

Sylis has blonde hair so Krishna tries to copy??

OK, forget everything I said, we are shark!

seems we have run out of scapegoats..

New scapegoat Abbas?

If we lose next weekend and All Whites lose (which are both probable)... crowds are going to drop to license losing levels.

Bloody Fenton. Out of position there. Should've done better.

Unless something starts clicking, it's going to be a long season.

Absolute joke of a team tonight and the next game against against Perth could be worse (day after All Whites game) 

Ernie Merrick and the Newcastle Jets are sending a very clear message to the Wellnix consortium tonight about what could have been,bloody horrible night to be a Phoenix fan !

Good practice night for Smith but that's about all really!

#licencesquatting

Started off so promising. Where's the leadership? That 3-3 has knicked the stuffing out and we ard reverting to route one to Krishna tactics.

we spend 95% of our time passing at the back....

Flashbacks to the Ricki horror season this is so bad. Although I used to get upset in those days.

Jesus Mullen what was that!!!

like how vidosic is getting himself involved

watching Mcg in that second midfielder role is like watching Vinnie, 10m behind any quick transitioning team

I think the better sub was Ridenton to give Paratski support and let McG stay high

Smith and possibly Doyle the only redeeming features tonight? Paracki's put in a hard-working shift again but his efforts have been completely fruitless, (except for the Jets) 

Oh good, Watson's coming on.  This should make a big difference.

Yeah, but it gets our possession stats up and that's very important. 

2 thinks irk me greatly. Playing out from the back every time, predictable and dangerous. I loved it when I was okay I g and teams did this every time. No variety.

Second is our insistence to play a left back at CB when we clearly have CB's better qualified to play. Not knocking Doyle as the goals weren't his fault, but we've now got three left sided players in Doyle Abbas and Parkhouse on again. I hope we go down the left!

We've been miss passing, slipping and playing generally shark. Not impressed at all

i'm almost ready to start being a rugby supporter!

This is an absolute shambles. Top 5 worst games I've seen us play. 

Our passing has been woeful
