vs Heart (Let Your Angst Out Here)

you know you're sh*t when Worm takes the piss out of you........

god hearfield is rubbish

I'm off to watch the Simpsons, although I don't think it will be as good a comedy as our effort tonight

didnt Terry have to have a meeting with the team last year and ask them to pull finger?  It might be time for that meeting again

Mate, easy on, that was 30 odd minutes of sh*t. We're not doomed for the wooden spoon.

Among the things that pissed me off tonight;

Mate,  they are supposed to be professional players, they havent been too professional this week and we know how hard it is in this league to play catch up.  Points lost this week that we cant make up.  Play like that at home and you can kiss goodbye the unbeaten run

yeah that pretty much sums it up.

Good post

yes, yes, yes

I agree about Siggie not being a natural wing back. Slow to turn and will get beaten easily by anyone with a quick turn of pace.  Maybe he will just have to accept that he is a second choice central defender right now.

I couldnt agree more

I was thinking what I might put into writing on the game, but this was everything I thought.
Well said.

Was that the first time Lockhead has ever been subbed ?

Do we not have another left back that can play???

Young Musa I believe is a LB,  not sure tho he may be a CB

Might be shopping time for Ricki.

Just like to mention again what was up with Herbert taking off Greenie for Hearfield after we down a goal??!!! Should of taken Brown off and chucked McCalister up front or gone for broke and taken Lochy off.
Very poor showing all round, Cut Ward some slack though a lot of our movement into the box came from him and he's really impressed the last couple of games.

Already brought it up. We sure do love midfielders. The thing with Ward is that he does somthing good then gives the ball away with a sh*t pass or somthing.

Anyone considered it was so ifill could go up front...? People also forgetting lochy coming off for Mac afterward,changing our formation to an attacking 3-5-2 formation. You ricki haters just make this stuff up a you go along don't you

2nd half effort [or lack of it  ?????] was a disgrace...... after the 1st half thought we were going to be easy winners.....Supporter's were so good and derserve so much more....so disappointing..... ..but will be there FridayChopperHarris2010-09-19 19:50:31

I thought our biggest problem was ball speed. it was too slow, we didnt keep it moving and it was really easy for Melb to shut us down, especially in the center mid area.

We went from being comfortably the better team to being quite clueless for most of the second half.  We just got worse as the game went on.

Well I was feeling quite buoyant after the midweek game, but a bit deflated now.  I think they got a bit complacent - then shaken after the 1st goal.  McAlister seems a bit lumbering too me.  It's a long season.  We've got too pace ourselves,  Ifill looks like he needs a rest - we need him fresh.

Agree with Stack. We get in the final third and are so slow to do anything that we become completely predictable. Unless one of Ifill's drops of the shoulder come off, we create basically nothing, other than aimless chipped crosses into the box. Steve-O2010-09-19 20:00:13

yes I agree. We should have won that. where was the vision?

props to all the YF guys who made the trip to Melbs. don't get so drunk that they won't let you on the flight home.

bring on Friday.

Back to the drawing board for Herbet et al and come up with another game plan for what ever one they are using at the moment it's clearly not working 100% for them

we were poor very very poor

But huge ups to the travelling fever heard loud and clear all game

Firstly, two clear chances in the box for people to shoot, and they f**king pass it.

Second, f**king hell cut out the training pitch bullsh*t. Use the f**king ball or pass it. Frustrating watching the same predictable step-over, run into a defender's feet, turn the ball over crap multiple times in a game.

Third, lazy pricks need to be drilled into chasing the ball after they've turned it over. I don't think I saw Hearfield go faster than a fat man's jog.
Turning around, waving your hands, shrugging your shoulders, blaming the ref or your team mates isn't getting the f**king ball back.

sh*ttiest second half performance in years

Telling stat mentioned in the 2nd half I think it was that the Phoenix have the fewest shots on goal in the A League.
I'm not surprised 

It was good to see Daniel inject a bit of positivity into the team's play when he came on. It'd be good to see a bit more game-time from him (has somebody already suggested this?).

Can someone please slip a couple of caffeine tablets into Tim Brown's water bottle before the game?! He can't just drift about in the midfield like he did today without trying to be more involved.

We made the Heart look good today.
