I was refitting Wyong Thai Massage today and dealing with tradies and trying to get thee job done quickly which meant i completeley missed the game.
Pissed off and very tired. Can any of you post a review and player rating for me. (I will return the favour next game!)
Ok Wombles a very brief summary without the benefit of a replay.
Glover: Good solid display, good distribution, sent it long when necessary, played it short when possible. One bad mistake going for a low cross that he couldn't get in the slippery conditions which gave them their 2nd. He has a voice.
6 points.
Roux: A massive improvement over McGing. Knows how to play the position and was always in position in attack and could have been used more. No problems with him getting back when he had to. A good performance.
6 points
Rose: Solid without being brilliant, duffed a shot on goal but like Roux positioned himself well and worked well. I wish he were 5 years younger.
6 points
Baro: A good leader's role at the back. Good defending and organisation.
7 points
Golic: Massive improvement, some awesome tackles.
7 points
Overall the defence was organised and caught the drive bus offside a million times. Totally different to last week.
Pain: Seemed to have lost his mojo from early last season. Got clear on the keeper, had Asdrubal beside him, could have slammed it in the back of the net, could have dribbled round the keeper, could have passed to Asdrubal for a tap in, but gently played it straight at the keeper. A real Kwassy (when he had time) moment.
5 points
Hoole: A great talent to be developed, massive enthusiasm the boils over and gets him into trouble (as was shown). Has more to offer than our other wingers in that he will quite happily come inside or play inside. Not scared to try things rather than just playing down the line and crossing. Will be good.
6 points, could have been more but he was a dickhead.
Brama: Looking better, good defensively and a 100% improvement on last week. Still finding his feet. But I am confident.
6 points.
Tommy H: Awesome controlled the game. He was a great link between defence and attack. Played both DM and AM as was needed. Pure quality.
8 points.
DDS: Looks like being our best signing ever. This kid is quality and class. Like Tommy controlled the game but more as an AM. Has the potential to be one of Australia's best. Hope we can hold him for a while.
8 points, m.o.m.
Asdrubal: a true striker, always in position, a good game, great poachers goal. We will see some good things from this man.
7 points.
Overall we held possession and played them through the middle. Great passing and great movement. The ball was kept on the ground rather than high crosses.
I have thought Okon was a great believer in "Ange ball". I definitely saw lots of similarities to the great Roar years tonight.
When our midfield and attack get to know each other better we will shred anyone.
The only cloud is lack of depth.
