2015 Mariners Pre-Season Games

[Rowdy]

Sim scores his goals against the worst team we have ever played against....

My thoughts exactly, this isn't some NPL State team in the FFA Cup, it's WSW .............sign the Boy!

Trent on for Rose

3- 2 now 77 gone

 

[Capt. Awesome]

We win

WSW really should have wiped the floor in the first half after fielding a much more experienced side.

The reality is that it's only a trial... both teams are f**ked from intensive conditioning work, BUT... at least we hit the back of the net!!! COYY!!!!

Well yeah, I mean - it's only preseason and already Dan Heffernan has scored as many as our topscorer last year hasn't he?

Dan Heffernan... our new Matt Sim

 

[Capt. Awesome]

If you want a good read head over to the WSW forum and listen to them making excuses for their loss. They are blaming their lost on the fact they had trialist on in the second half. We had trialists and youth on for the whole game!

Dan Heffernan... our new Matt Sim

Lets hope he is more than that.

Bit insulting.

As someone who has played in both UK and OZ.

Someone half decent there has the potential to be twice as good as a John Aloisi, without even trying. Until u play Football in the UK its hard to understand the level they can play at even at a non league level.

I blame Mossy 100% for our horrible goal scoring record last year but this bloke, with a hatrick against an HAL team, well he just be the missing ingredient.

He is also 6.2 so maybe we could play 442, occasionally, and really paddle some teams with Fab and the New boy steaming down the wings.

 

[Big Al]

I'd like to see the goals might give us a better perspective.

 

[Atomic]

Yeah, I was just joking wombat, hence the ""... I hope he's the real deal... but I hope too many people don't get too carried away with a pre-season trial hat-trick against a weak WSW side. Arguably, the FFA game that Sim scored his 4 goals had a sharper edge than tonight's game.

LOL.

I thought you were having a larf and u kept it going comparing a Sharks team (Rees aside who played well) to a HAL side, albeit the Drive Bys.

Sorry, my tiny phone screen and fat fingers are no match for this site on the web. Did do some facebook stuff.

Not so much comparing the sides, more contrasting the meaning of the matches. Just putting it out there that a quarter final FFA Cup game may be more cut throat compared to a pre season trial. Anyway... I don't care one way or the other.

That was a very experimental lineup with no Josh, Bosnar, Montgomery, Kalik, Caceres, Fitzgerald, Ferriera at all. Tricky was in the starting line-up but only lasted 2 minutes and Storm was a second half replacement. I hope the guys that play next. Hopefully a lot of the other guys got time against Newcastle before the Cup game next week

 

[Rowdy]

Why only 2 min for Tricky?

[JoyfulPenguin]

Sounds like a good hit out! Good to hear a trialist going well probably worth a shot just from that performance alone! Bodes well for the FFA Cup game and will be interesting to see how the lineup differs from that of last night.

I don't know how to copy the actual video into this forum, but here's a link to the fecebook site which has a unique perspective of Heffernan's hat trick... apologies in advance if you can't view it.

I love the last one.

Found this on twitter after the game by a WSW supporter. Just had to show it.
