ALM R14 v Brisbane Cant

Why is everytime Mariners play at Gosford there is some random event going on

It's Wilson's fault-just blame him for any problems the club has

Newcastle Breakers in the old NSL liked to play on a Friday because they wanted “the first bite of the weekend cherry” both from a family budget point of view and activity point of view. Their theory was that, in a lower socio economic area, they need first dibs at the family budget.

There was probably some of that going on this weekend. Lots of activities, lots of options and lots of money already spent. Even if you are a member there is still a cost involved if you bring kids.

Many also had a big Friday. My wife didn’t come because of that. Her mother, who normally comes, also stayed and they watched the game on television. My mate who always comes with me couldn’t manage to back up because of a big Friday.

I was with a big group on Friday having drinks in Gosford. I am sure that the dozen with me would have all came to the game on the Friday evening if it was on then. In the end it was only me and my father in law Saturday night.

These are all personal anecdotes and not necessarily reasons for a lower crowd but they certainly resonate as possible reasons in my mind.

With it being back to school week there will be lots of money spent on new shoes, uniforms & stationery. That’s bound to reduce the money to spend on going to see the Mariners.

I think MJ is miles above Monty tactically. The only area we are weaker tactically are set pieces. We had so many more variations last season that we don’t this season.

We have at a minimum 3 absolute lethal weapons in the air with hight and leaping ability and we seem to love trying to go long over the keeper.

Alou Kaltak and Hall should all have their space about 2-3 metres apart and a ball should be curved into them all where you don’t know which one it’s for and they should be running from the pen spot to the 6 yrd box and smashing them at the goal.

Total waste.

When we defend corners those 3 win it almost every time.

No worries. I guess if there’s one thing Big Dog knows better than anyone, it’s bedtime!

Touché ? There’s a reason I’m called Big Dog and more related to bed time than being a big dog ?

What’s Farrell’s yellows count?

We won’t be missing him against Adelaide will we!

I asked that question when he received the yellow yesterday. I thought he was on 4 already but he did have two yellows which became red so I honestly don’t know.

Picked up his 4th last night. One more and he’ll get a week off.

 

[Meerkat]

This has him at 5 @priorpeter .. did two of those become red? It doesn’t add up?

2 yellow cards don’t count towards the accumulation count. Looks like ultimate A-League’s count may be off there, I’ve just checked and definitely 4th yellow last night (or 6th if you want to count the 2 that became a red ?)

Look, I’m happy to go with “Ultimate Pete.” ?

I figured that considering it's the 500th game of both clubs there would be an article on it somewhere on the A-League site or on the club site at the very least- something recounting the club history milestone and the stats up to this point e.g wins, losses, draws, goals for/ against, biggest wins/ losses, silverware etc.

But nothing anywhere, at least from a 10 minute search...

I think it would have escaped both clubs and the A-League if Coast-FM didn’t do the maths and promote their 500th game.

 

[Kripple]

Great showing from Dan too. Feel like he's turned a corner, fingers crossed he pushes on from here

Looked like he may have picked up a knock early on too as Paull was told to warm up after about 20 mins. Obviously ran it off.

They fired all their staff so no doubt it's a stretch to do the basics atm

Nutters are not aware of other's personal space.

Speaking of Zads , if the roar trackie was beige , he’d look like a circumcised tallywacka

He should wear a hat too I could hardly see past the blinding shine of his bald head

It was very prominent on the keepup app...

Yeah, having to drive back to Sydney after the game last night made it way past my bed time.

You did very well old boy. My Mrs bins a 7.45pm game as too late for her....suits me....then its beers with the boys. I'm happy either way.....Early game then its a family game and dinner before or after......late game its drinks with the boys which is nice and easy.

The real issue issue is the shit scheduling.

Funny I was discussing this at the game on Sat with a mate.. why isn't Kaltak banging headed goals on corners? My answer is we're not finding him.
