And he’s coin tossing on whether a push in the back is a push.

Ironically Old won a free kick earlier for a push in the back that was less forceful than the one he got prior to Roar's goal the other night.

Much better. Really excellent opportunity there, even if it was somewhat of a half chance.

I reckon CCM can't handle Wellington on a good day and we will steam them in the 2nd half

V dissatisfied with Old's decision making. Either on Valium or been instructed to stay back.

I've seen some woeful negative garbage in my time,but that takes it I think. Total absolute rubbish.  Why bother at all if you aren't going to play? 
Time to give up. This is supposed to be entertainment.

Very close game. Nervy.

We've controlled the game quite well, although I think the Mariners are allowing us to do that. Be tricky when it comes to sub time because we have very little quality or experience to bring on whereas they certainly do.

Not everything has to be fireworks and shots from everywhere in football. The arm wrestle is interesting in itself.

If you don't like this id suggest trying rugby league instead - like genuinely. Maybe you aren't able to watch football when it is tactical like this

I'm personally enjoying the tactical battle, not all football games have to be frenetic end to end encounters. A shame that OVH hasn't been anticipating any of those far post balls, an experienced striker would have scored off at least one of those.

All that said I’d love the Nix to be up by 3!

Looks like a healthy crowd on the TV. Good weather, public holiday, and Phoenix.

Honestly, I believe if Chiefy had tried to turn this squad into an attacking outfit we would be second from bottom by now. You fit your tactics to your personnel and your squad depth and he's done that well overall.

Depth of the bench  is an issue. Theirs looks impressive.  And Kuol is now off for Reec.

He's been outstanding this season. Has stopped making those unforced errors that cost his team last season.

Better start to this half. With more intent. 

Kraev really looking to make a difference. No end product as yet, but looking decent, especially on this right hand flank.

On the other hand a blown out rugby union or basketball score isn't entertainment to me, each to their own

Reckon we'll see Conchie on for Ball soon.

Bulk out those numbers in midfield. Just a hunch.

Unlike  Kaltak, Theohardis is annoying because he’s a complaining prat.

somehow I feel unlucky for OVH. The ball never balls goes his way when he takes the right option, but then he doesnt take the right option regularly enough.

OVH spitting his dummy as he walked off. At least give a quick clap to the crowd mate…

Poor old OVH, it's a tough game this pro football lark. Played a good supporting role though in a depleted line up.

Well my hunch didn't come off. 😅

A decent enough shift from OVH once again. Just needs a bit of strikers polish on those boots to see him right around that goal.

Torres can still spring a surprise if we let him.

It's like we made our sub and that was the cue for CCM to crank into life.
