After a few days of reading this glorious thread I can finally understand what the expression "phantom pain" means.

Actually, getting outplayed quite a bit these days

Apparently ex-nix Mirza Muratovic scored an insane goal for these guys last week, can’t find footage of it anywhere though?

Good memory of a non memory (goal).

Muratovic (age 24) played for the Wollongong Wolves in 2023, but no mention of him in 2024. Maybe he went back to the Gong to desperately try and find some footage of his first ALM goal!

I don't know how everyone else is feeling going in to this week, but I really hate these bastards. Hope we smash them!

COYN!

(This thread is incredible btw 😂)
 Their fan group is even worse. Think they are the centre of attention and not realising what has come before them. 

I think you may have this week's and next week's match threads mixed up mate. 🤭

I also heard Reddy was supposed to be playing for Bye FC in this match, facing one of his former clubs, but he was sent home in disgrace for drinking alcohol on the flight over.

Nah, you have to be careful not to confuse Bye-Bye FC with Bye. 

(Still can’t disrespect Reddy- he’s our peno hero!)

The definitive book on the Bye was penned by Raymond Chandler: The Long Good  Bye. A film was made of it but being Hollywood they ruined it by cutting all the football scenes and replacing them with sex and violence.

Of course, any disrespect towards Reddy was completely unintended, just a joke about a touchy subject that I should've thought twice about before posting. Thanks to your response, I know now not to joke about the subject again.

This is why I love this site and the Nix. The humour over the proceeding comments has been outstanding. Thanks for the laughs.

Hopefully Spelling Ref can take this weekend off.

He'll likely be busy with his cards next Saturday, with Paulsen in goal for the hosts. Variations surely approaching straight red status.

I've heard their striker is rather anonymous up front.

Hard to be more anonymous than someone who May be up front, but still ...

Oi Oi Edgecumbe... lets have a clean sheet

I finally managed to convince my egg-ball work colleagues to come to a Phoenix match. 

I hope they're not too disappointed with what they see.

On the upside, our "goals against" metric is still the same, so it wasn't all bad.

Poor form from the players not coming over to the fans at the end of the game

Just shows we've got a lot of work to do before the rematches in round 11 and 17.

We can't afford to carry passenger teams like Bye FC who don't provide any net benefits to the league. No youth pathways, no decent attendances... surely it's time to say #ByeByeByeFC

Seriously guys, that's another clean sheet.  Oluwayemi had virtually (very virtually) nothing to do.  This is the stuff champion teams are made of!
