Some really excellent distribution work from Rufer tonight.


Before he was injured we criticised him a lot but man we missed Rufer.

Cracking delivery. 

Weird non team celebration. Maybe they are too tanked to celebrate??

Still a bit of legs on the bench with Sutton, Van Hattum and Karunaratne, if we start looking fatigued.

Surman first appearance of the season? Switching to back 5? I guess we are looking to hold on

Definitely odd - maybe because he ran over to Sasse rather than Mauragis?

Why are we playing as if we are a man down? 
Gah, I hate the way we try and close out games

Is the pitch artificial? It has zero bounce.

In the Taylor days no problem, now even a five man defence gives me no confidence.

 Never the biggest fan of trying to hold onto a lead by holding off but Brisbane best chances have come on the break so I can see the logic

Oli Sail has got his groove back after shedding that armband! 🤩

They’ve had 3 more chances since we went all in at the back. 
Also doing this with Urgarkovic and Lewis is even more nervy.

Just Scott Neville being a dickhead by the looks. Got a little clip from Van Hattum. Maybe Van Hattum has said something? But looked like major sour grapes from Brisbane.

Neville should be getting a card for that again players being the aggressor against us.

I almost dread when we score because it means we will spend the rest of the game inviting pressure. 

Nevertheless, fudge yea!!!! Fired up!!!

A bit of quicker play for a bit, great cross from Mauragis and tidy header from Zawada.

And then Ufuk tries to age us another year defending 1-0 for 15 mins. 

Nice work Nix. Wasn't much in it but those are the ones that count.

Fudge yea.  A win and a clean sheet.  Especially good given that save from Oli but Brissie scuffed a lot of opportunities which makes me nervous.

Either way temporarily 4th!!!!
