CCM vs Pissants United

[Ancient Mariner]

But reckon if i was playing rather than watching from the Prawns seats, SS would have got my 3.

Jim, did you nick my seat?

Even higher Prawn level than that Ancient. We were throwing the contents of our Prawn sandwiches at the Platinum plebs in front of us.

I watched this game at midnight so first viewing was on the screen, and to be frank it was an absolute rollicking.

Adelaide weren't poor, we were excellent.

If anyone watches a replay count how many opportunities we wasted. We created over and over and over. The play was creative, tricky, positive, aggressive and varied. We outnumbered and out enthused them in defence too. As soon as an Adelaide player had the ball we had 3 swamping them.

Most players stood out and played out of their skins. Special mention to Steele who was less obvious than some of the other masterpieces out there but just as amazing.

Better still, Monty has them so well drilled. Every transition in either direction and every player did exactly the right thing as a unit.

Oh and the set plays - so we'll executed and again clever.

Agreed it was 100% a red in the box and Silvera's goal should have should stood.

A beautiful game to watch.

FMD win 4-0 against a top 4 rival and there are pages of whining about the ref again.

Yes. The referee was a disgrace (not Evans bad but same ilk)

However, we won. Take it and move on.

But FFC...the refs got all the toys to assist them and they still f**k it up , I say complain away

Magnificent game. I was also directly behind Gauci for the fifth and thought if he was distracted by anyone it was his own defender - poor decision.

Impossible to pick a MOTM - so many great performances - any of Nizz, Kaltak, Tulio, Beni or Silvera could have had it.

Agree re our efforts, but from the first whistle Adelaide surprised me. They looked downright sluggish or lazy. We were able to move the ball with ease. They also hit a lot of poor passes etc . Not trying to take away from our performance but they definitely looked poor to me.

I also expected better from them and they did have their moments in the first 20... but from the moment we scored there was only one team in it. We didn't let them play. The send off just confirmed it.

The mega tests start now we have played 11 of which 8 have been at home... of the remaining 15 games ... 10 away games

Agree totally, Monty mentions it as well.

They haven’t won on the coast since 2019, they clearly don’t travel to the coast very well. Nor do we do well in Adelaide unfortunately. Isasis was a huge blow for them as he does a mountain of work and organising for them, the worst player they could lose in my opinion. It was all over when that red came out. Liked how Monty gave a lot of young players some valuable minutes when we could easily afford to. Good player management.

There was something not right about them.
No one passing to Halloran, Goodwin just screaming and moaning at everyone.
When our 1st went in there were 2 or 3 groups arguing with each other.
Trouble behind the scenes maybe?

The Adelaide striker Ibusuki hardly touched the ball and was well marshalled by Kaltak and Triantis.Goodwin also had very little impact-credit to Aquilina,Silvera and Roux.

Their No 10 Zac Clough looked their best player in the first 30 minutes or so but then faded and Nizzy and Steele controlled the midfield.What a good game young Harry played-we are lucky to have him,Balard,Bayliss all able to partner Nizzy at the base of thew midfield and Triantis and Hall also able to step up to that position when required.

The Adelaide RB Madanha while often beaten by Beni and Silvera when defending did show some attacking skills and looks like he should be playing as a winger.

Yeah ? Something was off. Think you’ve probably nailed it. Canraderie wasn’t evident. Too many dick heads in the side? I mean this is the coach who elected Mauk as his captain…

He’s excellent. I’m a fan.

Apparently playing out of position, played as a winger in the SA NPL.

I thought it interesting /amusing that Adelaide didn’t even post a line up for yesterdays match.. nothing at half time. Literally no acknowledgement of the game until it was over which no doubt was with serious reluctance. Really odd.. it was like a foreboding.

Full credit for them not passing to Halloran has to go to Farrell. He gave him a fe nudges early and creamed him a few times .Halloran didnt want anything to do with him after that.Farrell was to sharp tenacious and tough for him

Watching the game a lot of time was spent organizing closing down the passing lanes to Goodwin.. both Nizzy & Steele did a lot off the ball in this regard...

Internal trouble ?..works for me ... Senior Detective Veart of the Dope Squad would be enough to make you argue with your team mates
