A-League Mens 25/26 - Round 11

[JS96]

Adelaides defence is practically their reserve team so rightfully deserve to get beat

Ah that clears it up.

 

[Sutherlandbear]

Do you have players trashing clubs on social media or better yet players taking clubs to courts?

Yes.

Happens from time to time but it'll affect suitors as professionally run clubs don't want bad apples.

 

[patjennings]

What sins are you talking about? Beat the CCMs fair & square

I'm a CCM supporter and Brisbane definitely the better side that night.

 

[NoMates]

I reckon CCM have another goal in them.

 

[ashtongate]

Why do we have a 32 year old Dutch goalkeeper playing in the A League? Locals should be in goal as much as possible.

And look how well young locals have done for the last couple of season... perhaps Delianov should come back? Lol

 

[HonestSpursFan]

Mariners flogging Adelaide right now.

hope stanicic can turn things around, looks to have something about him but also a bit deer in headlights

 

[JS96]

You're just a Dutch Oli Sail! Not to be harsh on the guy but foreign keepers in the A League do my head in.

They need to get that exposure to improve. Not Delianov though as he's not youth. Even Steven Hall should come for a full season loan.

We've got other young keepers on the A League bench.

Because he’s good and a massive upgrade on what we had?

We have two who got games last season who were well and truly out of their depth.

 

[West Adelaide Hellas]

Adelaide had 3 Aussie keepers last season who were all given a chance and struggled.

 

[patjennings]

This is terrible commentating. First half penalty was hand to ball from distance hitting on the wrist. Now they call for consistency when a ball is headed into a shoulder from point blank. Just embarrassing!!

Neither had any chance to react so the call for consistency is legitimate

Not really - when the Mariners player was hit in the back of the shoulder. One was a clear handball - maybe soft. The other was clearly not a handball.

P.S. I would expect the decision against Adelaide would have been the same if CCM did it.

 

[grazorblade]

another debut in laurence taylor.. won't see much of him mind you

 

[NoMates]

Just like always I predicted once again CCM would dick Adelaide.
