Bright lights, big city and all that...
If he produces when it counts, I'll take notice.
not bizzzy enough
Was pretty good up until the goal. One moment of switching off can cost you the game as a keeper
Listening the Aaron Kearney on the way home they were talkning about hearing a whistle as the ball came in. This might explain why they all stopped.
FFS
No mention of no dive yet??
No doubt. I'm still not sure why an unphased keeper wouldn't come and contest the ball in his six yard box. At that range the only way your gonna save a header on target is if it's straight at you. Go and punch the thing, even it means cleaning up your player and messing up your hair.
Exactly. In the 92nd minute against your biggest rival you don't wait for the ball to make it's way to you. Attack the ball and make sure it's as far away from you as possible!
Watching the replay just after the ball is kicked Birraz is standing almost on the 6 yard line.
He then back tracks and ends up being behind the goal line when Duke takes his shot.
I understand not wanting to be chipped but the ball came in from almost halfway. If a professional keeper can't judge the flight of a ball from that far out what hope do us Saturday arvo hacks have?
BK would've have flapped that to safety
This is the bigges criticism of Birraz.....he does not command his area. Covic, Vuka, Theo would have gone for it.
More to keeping than shot stopping.
he's behind the goal line when the shot is taken ffs
we will loose
I notice this thread wasnt bumped after he pulled of the one on one save. How selective are some memorys
My 2c - thought he did well all game. Not willing to blame any 1 player for the goal. Just a clusterfvck
On to the next
