I don't see any more than 1 goal conceded in a match either?

33 goals for, 9 against is it? I'm impressed.

That 2-1 against Melbourne (second on the list) was my first live Nix match. Can't believe they have not lost there in that long. Amazing!

I was thinking about this last night - we've only had the displeasure of seeing five (six if you made it to the RoD) goals conceeded in front of us this season.
That is a stunning home defence record, and might be an a-league record.

In the notes you forgot the early offside call v. Adelaide at the end of the game where an onside Ifill ran through past an inactive offside Greeny for the winner.

Didn't we equal Sydneys at home record of 14 in a row before we lost in Palmy??? And we've played 3 games at RoF since then so I'm confused cause I'm sure I read somewhere before last nights game that we had gone 16 games unbeaten, so shouldn't we be up to 17 now??? I could be wrong, delirious or other

17 games unbeaten at the ROF.
Officially our home record finished on 14 with defeat to sydney.

The Wellington Phoenix extended their 16-game winning streak at home to
down the Central Coast Mariners 3-0 and secure a home semifinal in their
A-League football clash tonight.
I hate it when the media gets it just wrong. Bloody good effort though.

Yes. The list is missing one from November'09.
14) should read Perth 1-1, then all the others are +1 to 17.

Hate to be pedantic regarding this mighty contribution, but the first match, against Newcastle, was actually 2-0, not 2-1.
Every goal scored against us at the ROF lances me through the heart, burns itself into my memory & keeps me awake for days afterwards, leaving me to wrestlie with improbable conclusions like 'that wouldn't have happened had Vinny Lia not given away that silly corner 5 minutes before they scored'.
I'm happy to say that I suffered no such fate on that fine day we beat Newcastle 2-0. That was the game, incidentially, where they had two sent off but we couldn't score until about 10 minutes from time.
We're selling oursleves short here. The full record is -
P. 17 W. 10 D. 7 GF. 34 GA. 9
Long may it continue.

That game Griffiths kicked Dodd aye? Dodd slowly turned round and kicked the sh*t out of Griffiths (not really, kicked him once) knocking him over. Griffiths got sent off and nothing happened to Dodd.
Class defending and refereeing.
