But you do have to wonder if maybe McCowatt and Piscopo ought to both be starting because we’ve seen a lot of Jaushua Sotirio so far and it’s not quite clicking. It’s the same old story every time, this dude looks fantastic in the build up and then he gets into the penalty area and forgets how to play footy. Poetically he almost won a penalty but of course it turned out the contact was made outside the area because it’s Sotirio so of course it was – he’d have already bundled it out for a goal kick otherwise. It was that one on one he wasted in the first half though, that was the infuriating one. He didn’t even look like scoring

I usually agree with the Niche Cache but that's harsh - especially the 1on1 chance where he megged the keeper and it was accidentally saved by his supporting arm

A little bit harsh but does point out that so often a lot of the good work Sotirio does, getting into good areas, is undone by poor decisions/touch/shot/header. He is doing a job and it seems the negative aspects of his game are overlooked because there is no one else in the squad shown to offer what Sotirio does well - lots of running and running quickly. But that is the crux of the HAL, when you start to blend technical ability and good decision making with physical attributes - those players end up in better leagues and very expensive.
