Trying to prove a point I suppose
Thanks BH. I did wonder if it was Lennon playing silly buggers at times.Quote:

Been a couple of controversial var decisions in this game. I wish they’d just scrap it.Quote:

Fantastic game!
There doesn’t seem to be many bad games in that league. It’s the way football should be played, two teams attacking and trying to win. I’ve still never seen a 0-0.Quote:

Shouldn't be a problem - they moved it from Friday night to Saturday, presumably because the restrictions end at midnight Friday. Crowd will be limited - The AFL game is capped at 35000, I think, in a 60000 seater stadium. Glory's ground holds about 20000, so should be allowed 10-12000 - and we rarely get that many :wink:Quote:

Team selections last season were odd - Popovic kept picking his sons who, regardless of opinions on their potential, which ranged from very promising to completely useless, were clearly not ready to play for a team that should have been challenging to be champions. Then lots of players left and their replacements (Nabbout and Atkinson) backed out of their contracts to stay in the eastern states. This season we started with a rookie coach, a handful of quality, but aging, stars (Castro, Fornaroli, Keogh, Kilkenny) and a bunch of local kids. We have actually played some really nice football at times, but are inconsistent and have become pretty toothless in attack - IMHO because we tend to overplay everything and could do with moving the ball quicker. We have a real lack of pace in the side, which only exacerbates this problem. I blame Tony Sage (owner). I can't help but picture him as a bullying dictator rather than someone who fosters an "all for one and one for all" club culture - but I've never met him, so I could be wrong and he is actually the world's nicest man :greengrinQuote:
