jeepers - if Perth win this one (one nil up now) - then it will make our game against Perth a big one. Loser could be left lagging considerably.
Did I mention how much I hate Qld?

good game now at 2-1

craig moore has made nothing but an idiot of himself since saying the A-league wasnt up to it - red cards, missed pens, own goals

Irrelavent the result from this game, glory win denies qld points and a draw keeps it tight too. I hate qld too, so it may pay to see Glory get up for this one.

I say tackle him in the face.

I'm quite happy to see Perth lose, though I'd be cool with a draw (if I take a more optimistic view of the season)

craig moore seems slightly less ugly than usual tonight - or maybe I'm just getting used to him


also what's with Topor Stanley starting Movember about a week early - SAME OLD AUSSIES ....

Bertos is having an average game....he can only dream about signing for the nix next year.

Dont dream its over Leo.
 
Looks like a draw.

I say tackle him in the face.

Collosimo's after match speech was class. I bet the interviewer didn't think he was gonna rubbish the teams performance like that.

Queensland lost the plot in injury time.
 
Did I hear things or was Queensland using our Skalatites(Or however you spell it.) chant..It was crap anyways, could hardly hear it...Queensland and Perth got the worst crowds.

I ruddy well love the A-League.  Always full of excitement and goals.
 
If it wasn't for the Phoenix making me pull my hair out with their average passing and kicking the ball out, this competition would have it all.

Ron Smith (Glory coach) probably saved himself another week as coach. He will be the next manager sacked.
 
I hate QLD soooo much. Can't wait to have them here at the RoF

I say tackle him in the face.

i only say the last 40 mins of the game but good god it was amazing. qld 3rd  goal was class, real good finish. loved craig moores shoulder charge on leo bertos, tht knock wuda bought down fui fui moi moi at full steam. its always bugged me though that a player can do something like tht and just walk away with simply a yellow card, especially in the dying stages of the game when ther isnt guna b time for him to get another he can blatantly professional foul some1, end a promising attack and walk away knowing hes given his team time. i thought bertos looked busy when he came on, i dnt see how he'd fit into our set up nxt year but would b nice to get him home

bertos made a great impact when on - that moore charge came at the end of a great run from bertos. he had already skinned somebody else. he caused them problems around the box and it was his pass that coyne collected to equalise. he played well.
 
i agree in circumstance's moore's yellow was possibly worth it - give it stopped the attack. but, if he hadnt rushed forward and wasnt as slow as he is these days, he could have closed it down without a yellow that will see him miss a game down the track and which ultimately didnt prevent qld conceding an equaliser.  i thought the commentator talked it up  far too much.

Still believe that Leo is not good enough to make Nix squad this year!

no doubt about the yellow in my view, cynical stuff

(of course if Ross ever accidently obstructs someone in a similar situation because he clearly can't get out of the way, then that would be a different matter entirely )

I just watched the replay and it was a really really nice game. Good on Perth for never giving up. and good on them for pissing Craige Moore off. I just can't stand that guy. He might be an experienced player but he has no style and furthermore he is often late on his challenges..just the kind of guy I'd love to take on and nutmeg..

Liam Reddy knows how to throw a big tantrum at his defenders whenever he concedes a goal.

Interviewer: You must be proud of the boys after that performance..?
Colosimo: Nah, we were crap.



He also said something along the lines of "Ron Smith's been taking the heat for our poor performances but its the players that are to blame - three times now we have been ahead by two goals and haven't held the lead for 90mins..."

I thought it was rather depressing tbh.
