WPM R9 vs Newcastle Jets | Wed 9th March | 9:45pm | SS7

This is why its so hard being a Nix fan when we are so woeful

Sandoval needs piscopo. We are horrid tonight. We are a goal up, there is no reason why we keep giving newcastle back possession. Hold the fudgeing ball. 

All aboard!!!

toot toot all aboard the Waine train!!!

Super finish

And they score, we are gonna get cream pied now for sure

Waine train!!!

What a finish

feel free to fudge off then!!

Really well done by Sandoval, finally one of his runs and passes pulled off

Not sure we deserve to be in front but I'll take it. Missing the flair of Piscopo for sure.

Fluke goal, Jet will def put 3 more past us.

Great finish! 🚂🚂

Was looking across when that pass was made and thought he might of just strayed off. Done just enough. 

Crucial just on H/T

Sotirio is a greatly improved player, a lot of the little mistakes he used to make have dropped out of his game. Shows you the value of uffies coaching. 

The being offside and near the goalie that sometimes rules out s goal and sometimes doesnt us fudgeing confusing.

Ollie was definitely hanging near him in case he was put onside which freed up the space for the goal 

Bloody perfect response from the Waine train though.

 was totally offside - clearly involved in the play, assistant calls it off an ref overrules, no VAR involvement - utterly ridiculous.

I dunno, can understand why our guys got shirty about it but for me a nicely worked goal like that should never be ruled out. No keeper in the world would've stopped a bullet like that.

Bit of an optical illusion- defender stepping up and Waine motoring closed the space, but it was very well timed.

Also don’t think he obstructed view or interfered with play.

clearly the refs agree with you.

I somehow think Sandoval was instructed to play quick killer pass to our strikers, he's successfully made 2 out of many attempts, which led to 2 goals but at the same time made the errors look aweful.

Jets are a weird side. 2nd half they could easily win this 4-2 or lose it 4-1. They will definitely have a lot more chances than us, so it's important we take ours when they come.

I don't think we played our best that half, which isn't surprising after having a break for so long. Newcastle's defending was pretty brainless against the speed/counter attacking of Sotirio and Waine. 

Feel like we will need at least one more goal to win this!

If we park the bus like always then Jets are def gonna smash us in the 2nd half.

I reckon he did, but you're not wrong Outpost you're right that its a banger of a goal though.

Just a messy rule because it looked to me like Oli changed where he was because if the offside player.

The commentators going on about the team waiting sharkted me a bit.  Didn't we get shafted with a call a year or 2 ago because we resumed play because the reg said to and the VAR was gonna overule a decision but because gameplay had restarted they couldn't Rule on it?

Two good chances on the break missed already.

Has Sutton been on all match? I honestly didn't notice him until now (although did miss a bit of the first half)...

Totally agree. The last few minutes of the Perth playoff in Auckland we should've had a penalty but didn't because we put the ball back in play too quickly to allow VAR to look at it. Or some technical version of that anyway.

 that's what i was thinking of

Horribly complacent here. Should have done better with our counter chances. I’d love us to get the ball back for a bit.

God these commentators dribble on 😒

I'd drag sandoval for old. He is going to gift wrap them a goal soon. 

Hooper time?

Nommag

I'd drag sandoval for old. He is going to gift wrap them a goal soon. 

 Although the counter to that is he's the most likely to set up another one, and I can't see us winning unless we score again.

Looking pretty unlikely we'll keep them to one goal at this rate.

Gael’s been atrocious. Said this on Twitter, but he’s previously shown some holes in his game that I hoped his natural talent could paper over (passing, composure, vision, hustle, defensive positioning). They’re on stark display tonight

What’s with the backing off inside the box?
