We really are hard to please.
3 wins in a row, reclaim 3rd place, never looked like losing (the draw looked likely though), late winner (proving yet again our resilience, fitness, attitude to get the win).
Gold.
Not sure how you can say we never looked like losing when they had 10 shots on target to 2 and missed at least 2 sitters. If we don't tighten things up defensively we will get punished by the top sides, just like against the Bulls the other week.
Thanks Martin.
Not sure how you can say we ever looked like losing when we weren’t behind during the whole game?
Yes, we need to not give away as many clear cut chances. Often we ride our luck at the back. Of course we want our defence to be better. Constant improvement should be (and appears to be) our aim.
Of the top two sides, very respectable:
Melb City - 1W 2D
Western - 1L (1-0 away)
Of the other top 6 sides, not great, but not demolished by:
Victory - 1D (away) 2L (home, both 1-2)
Sydney - 1L (home, 1-2)
MacArthur’s 4-1 (away) result is our only loss by more than a single goal.
I like it that we’re a side that goes for it, but let’s face it that wil always leave us more exposed at the back than we might like.
