Re: 2026 AFC Qualifiers

Some interesting games on tonight. Japan v North Korea is a game that is likely to be fiery (from the North Korean side at least, my guess is the Japanese will be just hoping not to be too badly injured). Another is Oman v Malaysia, a phrase I never expected to utter ( Malaysia have really picked u...

Re: Pride Round AU- 2024

Thanks for locking this thread 7G. The mods here are generally very reluctant to ban members as we generally have a good community here that is respectful of one another. However I've taken the decision to ban AndyJ, very few of his posts have been constructive and most of the time he only appears t...

Re: Pride Round AU- 2024

Gee if a handful of social media posts, some colourful shirts and some rainbow smoke is enough to rile people up this much then all the more reason to continue having a pride round. We have a long way to go in our society (not that I believe pride round was even in the top 20 reasons why people didn...

Re: Wellington Phoenix v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Yeah the general application wasn't bad. Fought to the end which to me shows there's still team spirit there. We're still just woeful at defending especially in transition. We created a bit more than recent away weeks but we're struggling there too. These things have to be on the coaching staff unfo...

Re: Sydney FC v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Hard to disagree with most of the recent posts. Just on the owners, they're not trying to sell anymore. I don't know at a high level strategically, I'd have done anything different to them. They poured their own money in at the start of the year to pay off debts and invest in the training facilities...

Re: Who's signed for next season

I don't want the club to splash cash on big signings but I do want them to make good ones. It's hard to sign players from Europe in January so it didn't surprise me that we didn't do a lot but it was still underwhelming. I think Mauk was a decent signing and he'll make a difference. Dukuly is more l...

I had low expectations but somehow this still is disappointing.

Re: Who's signed for next season

They're terminating contracts because players aren't happy and are asking to leave. The club's philosophy is they'd rather let them go for free than have someone toxic in the changeroom. Probably also good messaging to players when we're trying to sign someone on the cheap.

Re: Adelaide United v Macarthur FC Match Day Jamboree!!!©

We're not creating enough chances and when we do we're not clinical enough. Definitely rued the point blank header miss from Hiroshi. Nestor did shoot a bit too much but he was frustrated. The ref and VAR had an absolute shocker and seemed to have something in for him. I thought Thursday's ref was p...

Re: Adelaide United v Wellington Phoenix Match Day Jamboree!!!©

Deserved more but it wasn't to be unfortunately. Wellington have to be the most 1 dimensional team I've seen at Coopers. They had no intention to keep the ball at all and just wanted to counterattack. They may be top at the moment but I can see them either being figured out tactically (we played int...

Re: Melbourne Victory v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

When you can watch fornarolli ask the ref for cards over and over and call veart a c*#t multiple times and not even have king talk to him, but our lad cops 2 soft yellows. Alex King has a problem with Irankunda. That much is obvious. Spot on. I can understand their supporters because we're all bias...

Re: Melbourne Victory v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

he needs to study the rules about dissent and retaliation. Won't be the career he's hoping for if he can't get that part of his game sorted. Has a week (or two?) On the sidelines now to think about it. Sorry but we see that sort of reaction all the time from players go unpunished. Obviously we'd al...

Re: Melbourne Victory v Adelaide United Match Day Jamboree!!!©

They deserve their lead. If they can sustain the intensity they have been putting in for a full 90 I'd be surprised. Hopefully we'll have our chances

Pretty pointless interview. Just waffled on and provided nothing of value.

Doesn't feel like we'll get a signing before the season starts.
