In my humble opinion Melb City were a good team, but after the first goal they said "oh, here we go again" and let another few in as a result.

In a time-honoured tradition of eating my own words, I quote:

"Wellington thrashed City without playing particularly well, which has to be one of the most telling indictments on a side’s overall quality."

That is from the Australa Scout website (reprinted on this site).

More interestingly:

"A particular issue is a reliance on Riera, and to a lesser extent, Rodriguez, to play forward through the lines, and one wonders at what point the ball-playing ability of the limited centre-backs, Durante and Sigmund, comes into question, if Merrick is to achieve his obvious goal of making Wellington a ‘modern’, technical, possession-based side".

Arrogant Aussie dingo-shaggers.

The tone of that piece reminds one of the eminent English art critic Brian Sewell, always good for a pretentious quote:

I assume even Aussies are allowed opinions.
