 Im actually quite enjoying these guys. Not the normal drivel that we get served up and they seem to be interested in the nix and the NZ game

Actually yes - they were talking about the All Whites games, about Piney driving from Welly to Auckland, you name it... they did not bag us, just focusing on their domestic audience which is kinda obvious.

That's another one of those terrible midfield giveaways by Sandoval. Someone's got to knock that out of his game because he's a very useful player otherwise.

I hope we don't let them poach a consolation goal. This match appears to be an unexpected gift to have a crack at clawing back that GD. Which is much needed if we are gonna be scrapping for finals places.

 the way they are going on about the Roar you'd think they were pushing for the 6, yet they are 11th with 3 wins.

Bahaha i had to double check the ladder when they were talking about it being a must win for Brisbane

Really liking the yellow and black 'Welcome to Moreton Daily Stadium' behind big Oli's goal. Thanks for that Brisbane 🤣

 They're probably a mathematical chance of getting into the 6, but they're not exactly kicking the door down.

 oh shark yea.  With the exceptions of first and second that's a tight fudgeing ladder.

Good call I reckon. Some of our blokes look buggered, Gael especially.

Sail did really good there to keep himself big and make their striker wait a second too long to shoot.

Was literally in the process of typing how impressed I've been with Sutton tonight and he gives the ball away right in front of goal. Another great Sail save.

Well I was more meaning the likes of Manuel, Ott and Elliot who haven’t played many minutes this season to get some as they may have to play at some point soon may as well give them experience

Sail is getting the MotM tonight. No doubt in my mind.

Of more concern, we're giving these guys a lot of chances that other teams might be more accepting of.

Tbh with the commentators- they aren’t Slater or Harper. They might talk a bit about the local team, but I’m honestly happy to learn about that. 
I much rather enjoy the guys from a local club type chatter than the over the top stuff. 
And some of the guys are quite interesting. None of them, yet, seems to think they’re more interesting than the football. And there’s none of that Fox trying to ramp up controversy, or not much. It’s been refreshing tbh.

He's a great shot stopper but you sort of need more to catch the eye as a keeper these days.

Lads looked absolutely gassed for the last 20, hopefully get a couple of reinforcements back for the run in.
Do we know how long sotirio is out for? Pretty light on attacking depth at the minute

much like the newcastle performance that last 30mins. But we got 3 goals, clean sheet and 3 points, nice one.

Like surman tonight, composed and looks comfortable at this level. 
I have an amazing ability to find my way out of mazes. I'm pathological.

I agree. They've talked up the Nix Academy, knew that Manuel went to the same school as Lewis - I mean, that's better than I have heard in a long time.

Was good to see Steinmann coming up to chat with a bunch of his ex-colleagues - good to see he's not a stranger.

That's a fantastic win with a bonus scoreline. Still going to be a tough ask but we are edging closer to what we need to get in the finals.

Well done lads.
