Was just thinking that I haven't noticed any signs of fatigue in our players yet. I thought that with such a small squad we might see it start to creep in around now.

Just goes to show how important those red cards may have been for us giving 3 players a week off to rest up!

Lucky we aren't down a goal or three. CCM are coping with the wind much better than us.

Notes from 1st Half:

Controlled without being flashy and dominant like previous weeks

Sanchez and Smith in centre of park is a winner

Daniels Tache is outstanding

The Salty Seamen's strip is terrible. Kit Clash anyone???

Got the time difference wrong, and went out to buy WCQ tickets, then get home and can't get a stream up. Finaaly do, with this, http://www.vipbox.tv/watch/15245/1/wellington-phoenix-vs-central-coast-mariners.htm
Just in time to see the covers coming out - it's not raining that hard is it?
 
So much for seeing my first match of the season :(
Dusted off my original home shirt for luck too.

I'm glad I'm not the only person thinking this. It really messes with my eyes having both teams with so much yellow in their kit.

We don't look like scoring a goal.

Most boring half of football I have seen since Sydney FC at the ring of dirt I think.

Big second half. (Or at least a scrappy goal and then defend like hell)

All Aboard the Phoenix/ All Whites Bandwagon!!

Be nice if we tried to mix it up just a bit, rather than hammering over hopeful crosses at one of the tallest defences in the league. Once or twice, especially when Manny continued runs into the penalty area, we had the chance to get behind them with a short through ball, but instead it went back wide for yet another failed cross.

Between who? Our yellow is nothing like theirs, and their kit is Blue with yellow not Yellow with blue. Our backs are full yellow so I'd say that's why they didn't have to wear an away kit.

Lots of comments about A league commentators, but Fred is one of the worst.

Would not be boring if we were winning.

I will settle for a draw already.  We are looking likely to concede when they are running across and into the box.
Playing away from the fever zone second half...

You're right, they should be wearing their away strip...

... whats that? It's got more yellow?

Someone really needs to tell the geniuses that design/approve their kits that the idea of an alternate strip is that it has alternate colours to your home strip!

It seems like we have a brick wall when we get into the last 3rd. And the only option is a horribly high cross that no one can reach (as we have no striker). Need to play through their defense rather than over it.

Probably need to see Ward on the park a lot earlier than the 77th minutes today.
