From the first kick off I saw how rattled heart were and kept saying all we need is to get on the board early then just dig in. Luckily we did but didn't heart come out firing once they were back on their heels. It is our game style though, we don't play possession, we attack and if we lose it we regroup, retreat and pounce on the next turnover. Thanks to a few missed sitters but our final line of defense were professional in the end. Dead set agree Broxham should have gone off, but now let's call it square after the Melling and the second derby
I was so worried about Thomas playing with no Coe still, but his reaction time was unbelievable.
Koren is an absolute spud in this league. What's the go with Mooy? Was sucking in big ones walking to a corner 20mins in. Is he really unfit and why he isn't more in Socceroo calculations? Novilla your best player imo.
Just going to reiterate my love for khalfallah. We're really spoiled for riches up forward and finkler is our best 9, and Archie would probably be a better attacking winger than FBK so it's gutting when he has to get subbed out. Missed Del Pierre so much this year through injury, he is such a rock back there. Eating my hat on my comments on Geria earlier in the season. He can actually defend now, a few times tonight after he came on he would have been beaten 6 months ago. Just need to tighten up defending the box a little better when an opposition is throwing everything forward like that.
Anyway, I'm crapping bricks over the prospect of playing Sydney and Janko. Great form and have been supurb on the road. Will be the biggest of the Big Blues if they go through. Adelaide would be huge, like our chances over them at the moment and another great rivalry game.
