    There were two sides from mncf and the northern side, made up of Kempsey and port players were shocking. Clut put the jets ahead after just 45 seconds. His second not long after. Vijuca enjoyed his goal the third with a fine celebration and then they just played all over them. A totally dominant half of football by the jets and so it should have been as they were playing some fairly average footballers. The jets played a 3-5-2 and cut the opposition to shreds with what you would all describe as a b string side. Boogs,clut, Jackson, vijuca and cowburn the regulars from last year. Kosta replaced around 15 in. Not bad and pretty tight to lead 5 zip at the half.
    Second half started with the same side except boogs off for Hoffman and brown off for Uga. A 442. The mncf south side ,Camden haven,Taree,foster boys, played much more intelligently and compressed the mids to win more ball even getting a few poor chances that they couldn't convert. It took 30 minutes for the jets to score again and that mainly due to the introduction of the A team players. Nts, kanta, dimi, odonovan , georgevski et al. They began to dominate again only to have the mncf keeper deny them with 3 or 4 great saves and a dominant control of his area. They finally succumbed to sustained pressure and when I left with 5 to go the jets were up 7 nil.
    Good crowd of 4100 attended within a friendly atmosphere. I did comment just before the changes occurred that I'd be worried if I was Ernie as it took a long time to score in the second half. $5 entry with 3.50 beers. Aahh, l do like living here.
    Hope you enjoyed the report and go the jets etc. etc.
    Great job!! Thanks for taking the time to post this report.

    Glad to see Ernie reads the Foz and tried the 3-5-2 formation.

    He came back from a knee injury as well. Disappointing for him if true.

    That's Themba Muata-Marlow, Alessi and now Adelson who were young defenders and sustained varying knee injuries in pre-season. Wonder if it's all the focus on turning and running back we do as a defensive drill?

    Don't forget Barresi! With him and Alessi it seems like a curse to bring young WSW players over!
    OK

    This was my impression....
    He's giving a talk, in Newcastle, to a assumed Newcastle living audience, an employee of FFA, he ain't gonna stand up there and say our players and team are shit.

    Ok onto the Jackson thing.

    That's now multiple coaches at multiple levels who continually praise the bloke and marvel at his potential.

    Yet he has never 'seemed' to be anything special atthe Jets.

    Is it because:

    His defensive partners at the Jets don't allow him any chance to play his natural game?

    Do the Jets coach(es) stifle whatever good points he has in his game in order to fit a 'system' ala Josh Brillante?

    Jets fans are just assholes and hate everyone?

    Discuss.

    Potential really means **** all

    He has speed
    He has size

    But he is clumsy as all **** with the ball
    Now we have Topor back he has a good role model to
    work with

    Problem is potential means **** all

    We could potentially make the semis if we win enough games this season

    Reality says we will crash and burn at some stage

    I understand that the trip is PR exercise around NNSW but what sort of preparation really is it for the HAL??

    Surely we should be playing better than this opposition by now??

    To me it's a complete waste.

    - Won't help our preparations, 16-0 playing with 10 men.....may as well play Zone League teams.

    - Won't bring in new members and put bums on seats.

    My optimism for the season is flying out the window and these games do nothing to help us identify and resolve issues.
