16/17 HAL Round 15 | Newcastle Jets v Perth Glory hole | Sun 15th Jan 2017 5:00pm

Perf at home. What could go wrong? After we beat them them over there they will be scared and not want to show.

A comfortable 41 deg should see at least 4000 piling through the gates.

Stats
Jets are red, blue, gold, white and other colours. They have good engines, mongrel and a new respect for badge. We have tough defence and spirited attack and mostly know what we are doing.

Perth are Purple with brown stains and are arguing with each other and refuse to share heat rub. Warren, Djulbic and Rostyn Griffiths are their main grubs. They are very dangerous in attack and love long ball, boo

Game could be as good as pregame at prem.

**SD will be out to score as well** not sure if paid.

Wouldn't say I'm a fanboy, but he can't be blamed for the poor play of the players. It's not tactics, it is lack of ability. Can't pass to a team mate, can't track a runner, etc. Absolute tripe.

[steve136]

All that talk about shoring up the defence really showing on the field :lol:

[belchardo]

God, somebody fake an injury to give us some time to settle!

[outsider]

Great defender that #22-isnt he meant to be the coachs great white hope?Steps over the ball to gift a goal to Maggart from Perf.Maybe had him as first scorer.

Interesting - lei lei taking the corners.

Easy. You're talking about "one of the best left-side centre backs in the country”

[westjet]

Cant understand why Jones didnt drop norstrand into browns position and put kokko up front. Lei lei is nowhere to be found.

Can't blame him for a professional defender airswinging in his own box. Glory started better than anyone has against us. Game has started to even out. But you couldn't wait to write that comment could you (oh wait you probably have been for weeks)

[monz6]

See the ref there? Two blokes go down. Glory break. Ref plays on. We win it back and could attack. He stops play. Wtf

Touchy lot aren't you? He spends the whole week talking up this 21 year old kid to be one of the future great defenders in the country and the kid immediately comes out and screws up massively. Coincidence? Maybe he didn't need that kind of pressure.

[Wilso8948]

To be fair Jackson did say we are happy to be giving up 1 goal per game

[steve136]

Soft penalty but oh well, we cop our fair share

Lucky he didn't say nabbout could be the best winger in the country in the future or he may have missed that (is that what your logic suggests?) 2-1 up at HT. Jones fanboys attaaaack!

Quiet around here from the Jones fanboys

Hello boys



Good to see us actually having a ****ing go took 20 mins to get into the game but we are actually getting on top now.

It just a lack of quality in players killing killing us.

Tactically going forward we tearing teams up

[steve136]

Lucky he didn't say nabbout could be the best winger in the country in the future or he may have missed that (is that what your logic suggests?) 2-1 up at HT. Jones fanboys attaaaack!

My logic suggests coaches are man-managers, and Jones may have mishandled a player this week that led to a catastrophic f*ck-up early by said player. You've got to learn what players respond to, and I think Jones learned a valuable lesson about what Jackson responds to/doesn't respond to this week.

Jones fanboys will be furious with the rest of us next week when he chooses to leave Hoole's spot vacant and play with 10 men because he couldn't bare the thought of replacing him.

[Retro Jet]

Someone tell Taggart that you can't wear black skins with a yellow top.
Hang on, oh yeah.....shit sleeve tats. :blush:

[plague]

Pfffft, I tell everyone all the time just how ****ing awesome I am and I never fail to live up to expectations.

Agreed. Although I personally think Clut and Kokko are quality so it's a shame to see them not getting a run when some other guys are a lock each week regardless of performance.

[Hunter403]

Got out of gaol there. How did Castro miss?

[monz6]

Not arguing with you here for the sake of it.. But we've won 3 from our last 5. We are up here 2-1. Why the need for change. If he changes a winning formula and we lose because of it he looks very bad. Hoole will be gone next week against a side we should beat so we will see when one of those guys you mentioned comes in how they go

[Hunter403]

Castro looking very dangerous

[Hunter403]

That's been coming. Three defenders just watching while 2 Perth players went for it

The "never change a winning team" heuristic isn't empirically supported.

Morten is going to have bruises all over his back tomorrow.

I agree. But Neither is the "never change a team because Steve thinks we should" heuristic. (unless we get a head coach called Steve)

[monz6]

anyway back to the game, cmon boys!

[weston]

Kokko needs to do something imo. Score a goal, throat punch Taggart or something.

[Hunter403]

Wish Jones would give Kokko more than 10 minutes. Not giving him a real chance

[Hunter403]

Don't agree with that. Noddy has been strong today

On a side note can anyone point me in the direction of who to abuse for the ludicrous rule you can't bring open water into the ground?
Look I'm all for punching back a few VCRs but if you haven't pre drunk the shit outta it before you get there and you're expecting to get in and get white girl wasted on $6 soft drinks and 1.25L worth of vodka then you're ****ing doing it wrong
The security are ****wits and have the IQ of a rock so it's like communicating with a door knob.
What is ridiculous is the fact my mrs stood there while I argued and poured most of it out. She then poured some into our daughters baby bottle in front of him and walked in with that. WTF! It's the same liquid. I asked if the water at the bar is either cold or filtered. He said no. This isn't an issue for us anymore but most kids on formula still require pre boiled water.

still though, looked techy.

Thought he went good. Hs mate over the other side didnt have one of his better ones. To be fair though there looked like absolutely no understanding between him and Hoole. Thought Cowburn and Nabbout had much better chemistry.

[plague]

ok something.

i know Castro came second in the Griff medal the other year back but is he either super fit or does he stink of cat piss because none of our blokes bothered to go anywhere near him all day.

is he that good? because id always assume you'd stick pretty close to a teams best player but man oh man every time they went forward he was getting the ball in the attacking third in loads of space.

fill me in, is that some sort of 'zone coaching' where he just drifts between the lines and we defend to a 'structure' or our players just shitheads who can't be assed sticking to a bloke?

Teams [Germany] eventually worked out that marking Maradonna was a waste of time and instead concentrated on limiting the supply to him. Obviously Castro isn't Maradonna but he's certainly a class above most players in the A-league. Hence going man to man on him you will get burned more often than not.

Just part of Jones' tactics. He didn't score and only hit the bar a few times so I guess it was a managerial masterstroke.

If they're sealed they should be letting you in. I've brought in sealed bottles no problem.
If they're emptied they MUST fill.them for toy at the bar.

The formula point is an excellent one. A solution is needed for that.

[Wilso8948]

The bloke does a good job moving about the pitch

My main issue is had was we spent too much time early first half and early second half holding position and jockeying.

I think it is a massive issue this.

That standing off tactic is useful to get settled in position and to conserve energy at times but it is a problem
Blokes get complacent and jog about the place forgetting the simple concept of first to the ball and we allow opposition to settle and play


FFS get into them particularly 30/40 metres from our goal we should be pressing the bloke with the ball all the time


We also failed to pit him on his arse often enough
Another useful tactic to disrupt him

Flip side. Dive in like boogard last week. See what happens. Defending isn't as easy as it looks

[plague]

Flip side. Dive in like boogard last week. See what happens. Defending isn't as easy as it looks

oh i don't doubt that. it wasn't actually a criticism, more like 'how does their best player remain open all game'.

I at least remember when we played Del Piero we played through the middle and made him do his share of defensive work. From memory he was (relatively) ineffective in the games against us (as a whole). Correct if wrong but record was ok yeah? (considering how garbage we are).

I always thought Cullina was great at getting space, as was some bloke from Adelaide back in the day. Just weird to watch thats all.
I mean, we have 4 backs and 2 defensive mids and no one was near him.



Also, Jets players are trash. no one cares about the fans. Poljak seems to care, but the rest are shit.

Taggart gave Plague Jnr a high five and took photos with anyone who asked. Top bloke. my favourite player now, Jets players are jerks.
I don't like any of them.

I've not got an RSA or anything like that but it's because it's a licenced venue. They've always had the rule it's just now its being more stringently applied. That's what I was previously told. It's a stadium issue, not the club.

Don't get me wrong, I'm in 100% agreement with you and it's a sad reflection when you can't bring water to a game in your own bottle. Minority have ruined it for majority

**** off

Poljak was ****ing useless

Hm and Stevie U and Chinese Messi were the main ****ing reason we got our arsed handed to us in the first 15 mins of each half

PERTH had 4 pushed up and our back 4 were picking them up

They kept 4 at the back to take care of Nabbout Nordstrand and Raheem Sterling

That left 2 in midfield to our 3

Their 2 won the battle


Yesterday was a game where we should have done much much better.

It down to our CMs who had pretty average games.

If Poljak is given a new deal then the club are taking the piss.
We need better in this part of the pitch

[StannyCFCJET]

Your having a laugh, the amount of attacks Poijak broke up and his excellent passing to set up attacks was a big part of what we did well yesterday. Ill agree Ugar was off his game though

not allowed to be like that these days.
Jackson would have got a head rub by the coach and a participation ribbon after the game.

the rest of the Jets players would have had counselling sessions in order to turn their rage into acceptance that everyone is equal, even the mong players.

Then it is you having a laugh.

That actually is his ****ing role in the team

That we didn't dominate the game yesterday against a side basically playing 4'-2-4 as Castro and Harold rarely tracked back says allot for the poor performance of our midfield

[plague]

Hm and Stevie U and Chinese Messi were the main ****ing reason we got our arsed handed to us in the first 15 mins of each half


i agree with the Member here. Add in that the Hoff-man was pretty stank which cancelled out Hoole in the 1st harf.

Thought Hoole was much better in the 2nd.


Jones will blame it all on Kokko though.

[Frodo]

**** off

Poljak was ****ing useless

Hm and Stevie U and Chinese Messi were the main ****ing reason we got our arsed handed to us in the first 15 mins of each half

PERTH had 4 pushed up and our back 4 were picking them up

They kept 4 at the back to take care of Nabbout Nordstrand and Raheem Sterling

That left 2 in midfield to our 3

Their 2 won the battle


Yesterday was a game where we should have done much much better.

It down to our CMs who had pretty average games.

If Poljak is given a new deal then the club are taking the piss.
We need better in this part of the pitch


Perth definitely won the midfield battle, no arguments there.

For the first 15 minutes we passed to the opposition 6 times out of about 15. Absolute piss-poor passing to start the game.

BUT. At least Poljak threw himself around and won some balls back to help sway the game in our direction. Uga was ineffectual. Ma Lei Lei Lei Lei looked off the pace for the majority of the game to me.

So, yes our midfield was Rubbish but Poljak had just enough 'Mongrel' to not need to cry himself to sleep last night.

I felt like we needed to bring Kokko on at around the 60th minute to give their CBs something to think about. When he did come on though he managed to get called for more offsides than Mifsud could manage in a half..

we didnt dominate because perf have a good team and keogh taggart and castro are actually really good players and this passing from the back system still doesn't fully work. Also any team will struggle when their best player Ugar has an off game

[Frodo]

Also, Hoole still has face like an arse but his pass to Nabbout was very good.

Attacking players dont get brought on under 80mins under jones

[hawk]

Needed to kick Castro's ankles in the first 10 minutes. Every other club does it to our play makers.

Stanny. Take a breath, add some punctuation and rethink this.

The member said that we were rubbish in midfield. You argued against that. Then said that they are a heaps better team than us and that is why we were rubbish?????


Also, Uga is not in our best 3 players this season. Potential doesn't win you games. Goals and defence do., He is a good young player and the best option we have. But he doesn't do enough to warrant a pedestal yet.

[Frodo]

We needed to pay some attention to where he was on the pitch let alone worry about kicking his ankles.. We let him have way too much space and couldn't shut him down effectively when he moved around us. He was great to watch other than the fact he thought it was a cross-bar challenge rather than a real game..

They have a few Individual quality players (the ones I mentioned) and they allowed the perf to dominate, Also id like to see any midfield in the league handle Castro running at them. As for Ugar he might not warrant a pedastol but he is the most talented player we have and when he is on song our team is generally firing on all cylinders

[plague]

i disagree. So far this season our best players have been:
1. Griff.
2. Duncan.
3 Ooga Booga.

Scored the winner against the Gypos. Only bloke other than Griff to achieve this. His statue should be out the front of Marathon Stadium right next to Griff's and Sean Rooney's.

Rooney?? for his ACL goal?? or for making the Gold Coast coach rage and kick a chair?

Also, after the game, him, Keogh and Tagg-man were the players who went over to the fans and signed shit, got photos etc.
Rest of them made a half assed effort then walked straight off. Castro was there for ages, getting photos with Jets fans as well. Seems like a good bloke.
Also, Taggart walked back over to the fans at least 3 extra times (after he thought he was done) to get photos and sign shit.

Its such a minor thing but its a bit sad when the opposition players make more of an effort with the fans than your own team does.

[plague]

oh Stanny.

Season 4 or 5?, I only really remember most seasons by once again not making finals :( but this would make a great statue, next to the one of griffo sack wacking that referee :rof:

[hawk]

Apparently there is a victorian association of glory fans - VAG fans. :rof:

(Hopefully that will be my only crude comment of the game)

Those fans were seeing red when nobhead got sent. Good turnout though

Good. Thanks.

[StannyCFCJET]

I really dont how I dont remember that. Does anyone remember the score of that game? Was it the one where Sasho scores the 90th min equalizer?

no one cares about the score.

the only thing anyone needs to remember is Rooney with two hands full of ****wit.

I care its always great when we do one over the gypos

[Wilso8948]

Take out the first 15 and poljak was one of our best yesty. And I dislike the bloke.
Castro took the piss every time we dove in. Had people second guessing themselves all day.

[StannyCFCJET]

Castro is the reigning player of the year very few teams will contain him if any.

Loser attitude

[MFKS]

No doubt he is a good player but if you play like we did against him yesterday of course he going to carve it up

Put him on his arse regularly
Press the shit out of him
Double up on him
Deny him time and space

Easy things to do

But if our opposition stood off us like we stood off even Raheem Sterling would look like Zidane and Hoffman would look like Roberto Carlos

He came 2nd.

If they're sealed they should be letting you in. I've brought in sealed bottles no problem.
If they're emptied they MUST fill.them for toy at the bar.

The formula point is an excellent one. A solution is needed for that.

The seccos told us the reason for the crackdown is that ONE fan tried to smuggle in vodka before Xmas. So...we punish everyone. FFS...if you want to smuggle in vodka you can inject an orange, hide a pouch in your salad or down your pants!

The other stupid thing is they are also emptying thermos's of tea!

when we did try to press him yesterday (rarely though) he just glided past our players

[MFKS]

I
when we did try to press him yesterday (rarely though) he just glided past our players

I wouldn't call that pressing.

Pressing is an organised pattern of play where your team actually work as a unit to disrupt play

It not 1/2 blokes closing someone down

It the whole side working to pressure the opposition

It may not see the ball coughed up initially but it is a good tool to also slow up progress down the park and allow your defence to settle

As soon as the opposition are within 30 metres of goal every **** should be pressing.

Failure to do so just invites the opposition attackers to find their Mojo

You want to see pressing in effect watch the Smurfs and see how Arne has them squeezing the shit out of the opposition in middle of the park

As a result the ball rarely is getting near High 5 Danny


And when Castro glided past a player yesterday that where your boy Poljak should have been. There too win the ball or put him on his arse

Either one will do

[monz6]

Danny V is in hot form. We shouldn't shoot when we play Sydney next. He might make saves

Not sure why this is posted here but anyway....

Of the "original keepers" DV is still at his best. Eugene is in steady decline and over the last two weeks Theo looks like he is at the end of the road.

Danny made a great day greater in 2008 - much kudos.
