WPM R13 vs Central Coast Mariners | Sun 22nd Jan | 3:00pm | RoF/SS7

Where the hell did 7 minutes come from!?

I had 4-5 max...

how the fudge did the 4th official come up with 7 minutes?
Nkololo scores, he has to be one of the worst import strikers in the league.

Gah, it’s happening….

ridiculous, especially given the lack of fous called etc, theres been no iinjuries or anything.

It was coming but that 7 minutes is crazy. Want to know how they worked that out.

It's going to be 10 minutes now!

Gill giving montgomery some words of wisdom

7 minutes?! Where from?

Feels like some vindictive behavior from first that lino and the team. And not really reality adjacent.

Vukovic charging up to the goal! Shoot Sail shoot!

Incredibly bad game management from us. 

and that's it! ad shock horror some cock decides to get all fisty cuffs with Sail!

Teams don’t like losing to us huh?😄

YES!!! Fark my ticker couldn't take much more of that!

And now the traditional after match brawl.

Yeeeess! Fudge if Kaltak scored that speccy I would have thrown up...

What are all these scraps after the final whistle btw? 🤣

we won, cant ask for more than that

What happened at the end? 

who the fudge knows,I can guess that Sail said something, or celebrated the win like he normally does and someone took offence, and got a little heated.
halfway through the season, this is the point where CCM start dropping.

If Newcastle win their game 2-0, we go 3rd !!

We are going to get a bad rep. 3 weeks in a row our games have ended like this. 
Not good enough.

Top team effort but Elliot and Rufer deserve special mention. 

Did enjoy how the game flowed and the contests were let go. But there’s a clear difference to Danaskos in that she kept control.

Disagreed with the one on Ball not being a card because of the trailing leg and the consistency in the Kaltak/Zawada contest went a bit late on. But she’s been one of the better refs we’ve had. 

Don’t think you can card Nkolo for being a twit thumping the ground and then hopping straight up, unfortunately. But I wish we hadn’t let him score. #avengeLouis

 And Josh Laws. He put in a great shift.

How is it our fault if other teams throw a sook when they lose to us, like the refs don't cheat hard enough against the hated sheep-shaggers (10 minutes added on? lol)

Agreed, any time a team has come out on the wrong side of a one goal loss it's generally them that picks an after whistle push and shove, and so it's been the last three games. 

On the other hand it wasn't a pretty sight seeing Gill going mental, wrestling with Mariners players and screaming abuse. He should be nowhere near there except to help calm things down.

 Today's ref wasn't that bad. the VAR calls took forever and a couple of those injuries took time. But the first part of your comment was spot on. Teams don't like losing to us. They could not get us to lose our cool during the game as such, so they kicked off out of frustration at the final whistle. We won, they lost. They should have played better than they did. We got three points because we earned them.

Why did Sail keep trying to show his wrist/hand to the officials. It was strange. Did the CCM guy bite him or something? Sounds bizzare but I can't think of any other reason he would act and gesture like that

CCM player kicked him in the hand after a clearance at the end. Sail went at him after that in retaliation and that caused the fight.

Makes sense. Guess he was trying to show a stud mark. Wonder if there is any camera footage, Sail seemed pissed. 

Was there a reason for the standing applause in the 85th minute?

Thought Kosta looked like he had a real zip and acceleration at some points there, particularly when he skinned the guy in the second half. 

Great day for the Nix.

We got 7?

Sail is a bit of a tool however 

pretty sure toyd react if a striker came through and kicked your hand!
any other time and's that's a foul! end of the game and Sail reacts and the CCM players get all pissy!

Great day for the Nix.

We got 7? 

Well, technically we did. 😁
Great day all round for the club.

And with that said, enjoy your day off tomorrow Wellingtonians.

Whatever bullshark at the end, we had a Nix Women's 5-0 thumping of an opposition and Nix go 3 from 3!

Damn good day to be down at the Cake Tin.

This is why we football people.  Feels fudgeing good.

I was watching on tv and it was a shame that two such good results weren't seen by many people (or so it appeared). Surely the nix can't survive long term at sky stadium, our attendance this year has been abysmal, only better than recent additions to the league Macarthur and Western United if you take into account Perth's been at a 4k capacity stadium all season. Something's gotta be done surely 

Wonder if the team will persist with 3pm kickoffs next season

A fine all round team performance, especially in the first half. Lots of players now looking confident in their ability and looking to contribute. Elliott brilliant. Laws his best game for a long time. Kosta same. Payne, Mauragis, Rufer, Lewis until he got smashed, Bally... 
Probably only Kraev was a little below his best.
