Mullen is looking pants - poor options, poor passing

Reckon we are by far the worst team in the league, we may be 2nd or 3rd worst if we didn't have a goalkeeping howler every game, I guess

Paracki really does fade in and out of games, especially defensive duties. Wasn't tracking back to help out his back 4 at all.

He's no Riera in terms of defensive positioning

Performances like these don't help matters when you have pricks like Slater, before the ball is kicked saying "do we need a NZ team? I don't know but the question needs to be asked...." Like fudge off mate.

Burns has these little moments where he just looks class.  His touch is so much better than those around him.

Massive holes in the middle, top of the box. 

Need more midfield cover.

Nathan Burns needs to help out on the right.

Slater kept saying Fox didn't know much about that block, but he pretty convincingly played at it.

FFS - again. All WSW are doing is busting up wing and then squaring to the top of the box. Because our midfield is ball watching it's an option all day!

People actually have to want the ball and show a passing option or two for that to happen.  Guys are massively isolated.  How often have the wingbacks just knocked it aimlessly down the line because they have nowhere else to go.

The league needs to expand (get bigger) this talk of getting rid of teams is so stupid.  We need at least 4 more teams in the competition.  We are having a poor season but that is no reason to get rid of a team.  Good and bad seasons are what gives a club their history.

morale is low, we have played poor for weeks on end. What will yelling at them do?

think this sums uo the season as well, we are celebrating a centre back doing his job after being beaten. We should be getting way more shots off with the likes of Burns, AK and Lujic in the side.

however they can't have any confidence to go forward when our back four and keeper are so so fudgeing shark!

Queenslander 3x a year.

Agreed - and Ridenton is still a work in progress. Ljujic and Paracki anonymous.

Quite obviously a foul on Burns. Commentators completely quiet. Fudge off.

From now on I propose we play the kids. At least they have something to prove, at least they have desire

Patterson to come on for McGlinchey and switch sides with Burns.

The kid at left back is well out of his depth. He is putting us under huge pressure by wandering up the field well ahead of the ball.

I know this is our rebuilding 'pass' year for the manager, but surely the manager has proven that his recruitment has not been great and may not actually be any better next season?
