One of their attackers seems to be pushing our CBs off balance every time the ball comes in. Not just body to body but pushing off with his hands. I think thats what the adelaide players are complaining to the ref about.

Izzo is down, possible concussion? Richards is warming up.

Somehow he stays on... how is that possible?

Goody scores. Geez we didn't deserve that but will take it.

Perhaps he's in shock from how we started?

This happened to him last season too with the dizziness. Hope it's not vertigo like.

Not a great 30 minutes but we weathered the storm with the goal.

Would like to see Ilso on early in the second half for Apostolos as I don't think the latter has had much of an impact and we're not creating enough chances.

Obviously a long way out from season but boy was that unimpressive. Am I on my own planet, or is our method when in possession really poor? Everything is too isolated and it continues to bewilder me that we are so incapable of building any play through centre of midfield

Terrible first half

A midfield with names like ours should not be chasing the ball against an NPL team.

Im expecting lions to fatigue, they have been full of energy but played on the weekend.
Ppl who slap the label of truth on the 1st thing they hear, do it out of ignorance, convenience or cant be bothered picking through a thin layer of falsehood to find the real truth, or possibly even another lie

The Lions were stopping play going through the middle via Isaias so we were forced to play out from the back out wide and that resulted in a number of turnovers. I expect that to be tweaked by Marco at half time to get things back on our terms.

We look like shite, will be happy to get out of this with the result.

Maybe Ilso can liven things up a bit.

Who is Paul Wilson? What position? NPL club?
A centre back who has been playing with the youth team. He was on the bench last year when we knocked Newcastle out the cup.
Thanks, i was hoping he'd be a promising local LB, oh well.

I forgot how much Nick Meredith hates us until tonight. What a flog.
