WPM Finals vs Adelaide United | Fri 5th May | 9:45pm |

Here we go. The yellow giants are stirring…

Looks like ball and Kosta have switched because Kosta can’t defend

Nothing I hate more than seeing the team win the ball high up the pitch and then piss around tapping it sideways and eventually losing it. Have a fudgeing go for goodness sake!

This game has 3-1W all over it. Kosta, Ball guna quieten the haters, then Zawada will do Zawada things 

Not that I think it was a pen, but is VAR checking that? 

Gotta keep this tight till HT.

Great work Ugarkovic.

Great break there, love to see it

Classic Rufer…

SO BLOODY CLOSE!!!

Wow. Last 4mins we showed what we should have for the previous 41. 
Come on!!! Huge 2nd half coming up!!

SO BLOODY CLOSE!!!

Jesus you can't get closer.

Faaaark that feels like a defining moment.

Central Coast battered these pissants last week.

We should have tried to emulate that. Instead, we’re letting them run at us constantly.

Can’t see they’ll feel comfortable on 1-0. We’re building a case. Time to win this bloody thing on goals rather than Xg!

Wouldn’t have been overturned if he had given it.

 It was hardly a tap in ffs

We never get anything out way from Fargarni. Reply looked liked a decent call for a pen. Plenty of contact.

We are still in this. We made it easy for them, if play like the first and last 5 minutes they will crumble.

It hasn't been great but I still feel like this is the best we've played in the last 6 weeks or so? 

We did well to maintain possession and string some passes together in yhe final 10 minutes. Hopefully can give us a bit of confidence going into the sheds. Kraev and Lewis on soon I hope. And they make that magic for us.

Yeah, more contact on Zawada's back leg than on Ball's a few weeks back and that was given. Personally I'm ok with the decision but it's the inconsistency that does my head in.

Come on Kraev, do something spesh.

That was Sail's. Came, stopped. Should have had it. Elliott left trying to clean up what he thought Sail would have. 

Whether it's Sail's or not it should've been easily and safely put behind by Elliot for a corner. Just gutting that we can't stop making these mistakes even in the most vital game of our season.

No problem that Elliot should deal with it better. But he is a) still young and b) up against Goodwin all night. Sail could and should have taken that, as I saw it, and took some pressure off the FB. 

Sail's done it all season and left Elliot and Sutton in bad match ups for back post headers multiple times. A bit different this time. But commanding around the 6 yard line isn't a Sail strength and it puts pressure on others. 

Just the way I read it.

 2 touches, 2 corners won

Adelaide try to slow our counter and Faghani helps them.

If we can get them to transition into a park the bus mentality in 10 minutes time then inject some pace and flair with our bench we coukd sneak one over them

Elliot definitely the weak link tonight.

Get him off.

Can’t come back and give Isais a yellow?

That pressure we had is in danger of being the last wave of a receding tide…

Here we go, Nestory on for them.

Ibisuki on as well I guess.

FFS Elliot!

Elliot cost us this game. Terrible.

Should have come off at half time ffs.

Just frigging chop him down and take the yellow! Hopeless.

Seemed the same amount of contact as oska in the first half

Sorry, but poor game management from Mauragis in the lead up to that. Needed to just clatter the fudgeer and not let him get that far.

Poor Callan, don't know what he was thinking dragging a leg out behind him like that either...

Woeful defending.

Thanks callan, I didn't want to enjoy a home and away semi final anyway

little late to take Rufer off, not sure what Lewis is gonna bring.

Well thats the game over then realistically

Can’t blame Elliot once it’s got to the box. Well, it’s looking like a big hill from here and without Kosta or Waine I don’t see us scoring 3.

It would have to be a miracle from some of our sotto players…

It’s exactly that kind of counter we’ve missed this season and why we’ve dropped so many points.
