Paulsen needs some sort of strategy to protect his notes.
Tucked in to his sock? Written on to his shin pads?

Take the bottle with you.
Redmayne in the Socceroos v Peru Intercontinental playoff the first to do this, that I'd ever seen

Nothing in the rules say you can't do it, if the opposition wants to write down a guide to where players shoot and you're careless enough to leave it unattended then I'd toss it too.

Huge blow for Sydney.
He scored a few great goals but his "off the ball" play was excellent. Dragging defences all over the place.

He will be honoured as "the David Ball of the lower placed teams".
Sydney host CCM tonight. Really hoping Sydney can put a few past them and get the job done early. That'll mean a home final if the Phoenix can finish off Melbourne.
I'm really interested to see how CCM pull up tonight after the AFC cup game the other night. They have had quite a few games now in a short period of time, I'm wondering if we see it start to actually affect their results or not
They're looking energetic. Mariners should have scored at least once.
Sydney living dangerously, redmaine has been forced to come out and dive desperately for the ball as the mariners have been one on one with the goal keeper, twice now.
Sydney 1-0 Joel King
Yep, 1 shot 1 goal. Against the rim of play
Great result!
Im conflicted, as much as I want a home final it sucks that we have to root against the mariners to achieve it.
I’m more than happy to toss them under the bus.
Pitch looks a bit of a shocker. Two great footballing sides restricted in the ball movement.
Come on Sydney
Poor header that by Nisbet. Should have at least worked Redmayne harder there and perhaps should be 1-1.
I know he's only knee high to a grasshopper, but he must have been at least 3 metres clear of any Sydney defender. Meekly heads the free header straight at the keeper.

Nevermind, he's made up for it there...
Bugger
Sydney will be annoyed with themselves conceding right before half time
Wonder which CC is better- this season or last season’s?
Sydney should have the quality off the bench to finish this out late in the game. As CCM tire.
Fudge. CCM pen
Yheoharus has shown tonight he's one of the best divers in the game
CCM 2-1
penalty scored by Doka - well taken

This could be upgraded to a red for Rodwell
Knuckleheaded play from Rodwell.
And it has been upgraded to a red.
No real surprise there

Well that's that then
Straight red means Rodwell would be out for the GF if they made it that far wouldn't it?
CCM looking likely to score a couple more.
Feel a bit sorry for Rodwell. It’s a challenge which wouldn’t likely have been a foul during his footballing education.
Doesn’t go over the ball, doesn’t make a lot, if any real contact with the player, gets there first.
Certainly Uffie got away with plenty of those!

Sydney to play with 9 for the remainder after a 2nd red
Just not their night tonight

The comments man thinks there's nothing in it. Looked like an elbow to the face to me.
Talay is such a loser. Mediocre for 4 straight years with us (except for maybe 4 good months in his first season). And can't even draw against the Mariners two days after they flew halfway across the world in cattle class. Really pathetic.
The better team won.

Flying doesn’t mean you forget how to play football.
I didn't think the 2nd red was worthy of even the second yellow. 2-1, not out of it yet. only just over 14k in attendance.
