Arguably Balls worst game in a Nix shirt.  Was fully MIA.  His shooting was woeful too.  He could have had at least one goal today.  

Hate to say it but todays game reeked of the final years of the Kingz.  Kids running around aimlessly with no senior leadership to guide them.  

Its a pity that Rufer is not a patch on Ngata or S. Elliott in the midfield, either as a leader or player as they are the kinds of players we need right now.

Kingz or the Knights? (or both?)

Agreed Ball had a terrible game. Hard to signal him out though when the rest were also bad; it's just less expected from Ball I guess since he's usually one of the better ones.

Lewis and Rufer was never going to be a good midfield by A-League standards, so sight unseen I had hoped Pennington would improve the midfield... that doesn't seem the case though, not terrible, but like most of the squad seems another just Ok player at best.

With Hooper and Sandoval (and I guess Piscopo) we should be more competitive IF everyone stays fit. But we really need a good midfielder to replace Lewis or Rufer in the starting 11, and a quality central defender too.
