[plague]

Hernandez to score his usual goal.

oh and its Plagues birthday week celebrations boys have a glass of shandy for me.

[StannyCFCJET]

Rumors going around Roy the boy a real struggle to be fit for this one

[hawk]

best not start him too early. Hello 2nd loss, though melb are no shiteney

[Couscous]

Jeterpool, how many goals has Nabbout scored against the Jets?

[Jeterpool]

He only scored one goal against us. It was a 1-1 draw on 10/1/14

[Roundball Enthusiast]

No Roy, no joy.

1-1 Draw. Victree are shit, we're not quite as shit, but very close without our boy Roy.

[Mark325]

who else is in the squad can cover roy? Nabbout isn't a striker, he veers wide way to much so we need someone else to cover him

[StannyCFCJET]

Roy out 4 weeks and Duncan out with a foot preoblem

[hawk]

Just enough time to get all the members in then Bam! injury city.

[Hunter403]

No Roy? Bet Burns is looking more interesting every day now

[lquiquer]

Yeah but possibly can't get Burns till January...

[leftrightout]

Theres a young guy sitting on the bench at City who is desperate for game time. His name is Tim someone?

But seriously, what are our options because we need someone immediately. Who is available at other clubs that may be able to gain a release?

[The Dunster]

Why are people panicking it's not like our top two offensive weapons are out injured for over a month. Ohhhhhh ok. Well it's a good time to give Shabow, and Mini Petratos some solid game time up front. I wouldn't bother bringing anyone in - better to keep unity among the group and promote from within.

[Jetmaster]

Would rather try Petratos 2 and leave Nabbout on the flanks. Too much disruption otherwise.

[plague]

Would rather try Petratos 2 and leave Nabbout on the flanks. Too much disruption otherwise.

i mean where was the Hoff even playing last week?

if a striker goes down pick another striker and stop cocking it all around sideways.


Nabz plays his best on the flank. was useless up top.

ernie has no clue.

Middleby has to step in here.

[Mark325]

Article I read bout Roy's injury claims nabbout will play striker again

[The Dunster]

Question needs to be asked - Who injured Roy ?

[plague]

Milligan swanning around darby st tonight in full kit like a proper wanker.

Sean Rooney wouldnt have let it happen back in the good old days.

Already dressed for the game because he knows how long it's going to take to get outta town with the traffic

[halo se7en]

Already dressed for the game because he knows how long it's going to take to get outta town with the traffic

:lol:

[halo se7en]

Ours odd have slowly blown out all day... please don’t tell me Petratos is injured

[belchardo]

nice finish. marking should have been tighter further up the field. nothing the keeper or boogs (or was it topor?) could do about that.

[monz6]

We are very underwhelming down both wings... need to start just going down the guts through Petratos. We are going to get nothing out of these wingers unfortunately

[MFKS]

Ohh Georgy boy

[belchardo]

nice. thought they had both taken 8 touches too many.

[plague]

gosh.

[MFKS]

This kit of ours is shit
Watching this game on a dodgy internet stream and it looks like Aids and cancer

**** off the blue and red shit

[MFKS]

That the difference between Roy and Nabbout

Roy walks that into the net

Sign a striker FFS

[Bremsstrahlung]

Some cracking strikes...

Why does the ref make old mate walk slowly to the goal line as it’s the nearest exit but then wait 40 seconds until their sub is ready and the player is in the technical area after all that.


Boogies is about 0.005 seconds away from seeing red. He’s timing them just right atm...

[westjet]

Yeah cant work out what nabbout was doing there. So flat footed.

Suck on that milligan. Cant wait for var to overturn it.

[MFKS]

Right decision

Can't react that way

Puts hands on throat lunges aggressive

Got to go

Socceroos captain should know better

[belchardo]

milligan is really off the deep end at the moment. seems like a really angry man lately.

but what a ****wit.

[Bremsstrahlung]

Probably still angry about getting hacked all game a few weeks back for Australia.

[Hunter403]

Maybe a history between the two?

[plague]

hahahaha Plague jnr sledging Milligan on Darby st last night obviously worked.

have we got bets on who the ref gives the square up red to?

Kanta and Boogs paying $1.04 ATM

[westjet]

Milligan fast becoming one of my most hated players to watch. So sick of him acting like he had had his leg broken after every tackle. Seems to permanently have the biggest chip on his shoulder. That was one of the dumbest send offs in a long time.

[The Dunster]

hahahaha Plague jnr sledging Milligan on Darby st last night obviously worked.

have we got bets on who the ref gives the square up red to?

Kanta and Boogs paying $1.04 ATM

As good as money in the bank.

[Hunter403]

We've slowed down the pace. Playing to their tune

[westjet]

Much better nabbout. Time to be ruthless and kill this game.
Was it victory who pinched a draw a couple of weeks ago after austin got sent off?

[monz6]

Eating my words. Great cross Hoff

[The Dunster]

Well played Hoff

[belchardo]

hahahaha Plague jnr sledging Milligan on Darby st last night obviously worked.

have we got bets on who the ref gives the square up red to?

Kanta and Boogs paying $1.04 ATM

i'll take vujica as a dark horse. reckon he's good for about $3.50.

[belchardo]

Much better nabbout. Time to be ruthless and kill this game.
Was it victory who pinched a draw a couple of weeks ago after austin got sent off?

this times a bazillion. we need to be clinical and make sure we have this wrapped up by half time.

and yeah, austin off, george scored the equaliser i think.

[MFKS]

hahahaha Plague jnr sledging Milligan on Darby st last night obviously worked.

have we got bets on who the ref gives the square up red to?

Kanta and Boogs paying $1.04 ATM

Who gives a ****

We're gonna win the league

Some of the shit we playing tonight is a joy to see

Kanta and Sugar playing like Iniesta and Biscuits in their prime

I cant see how even us can **** this up

[MFKS]

Seriously it needs to be asked

Ronny fit and firing no leg break etc


How ****ing good are we??

[westjet]

Cant believe how good dimi has been this year. Thought he was going to a nabbout like signing and have a mixture of great and poor games. Really standing up to cover the injury losses.

[belchardo]

dimi certainly seems up for it tonight.

another two goals to be safe, then start piling them on for fun!

[Wilso8948]

Seriously who is this exciting fast paced team? Wtf have they done to my batshit boring ****ups called the Jets?

[Hunter403]

Muscat not a happy wing nut

[belchardo]

bloody hell, dropping like flies.

[monz6]

Is berisha injured or suspended?? Why isn’t he out there tonight

[belchardo]

the longer this goes without another goal for us, the more nervous i'm getting.

[westjet]

Ffs what is going on with all the injuries! How many fit players do we have left?

[belchardo]

Is berisha injured or suspended?? Why isn’t he out there tonight

not sure if you're just making the point that berisha has had zero impact (so far) on the game, but he is out there.

[monz6]

Is Ned Zelic serious? How could that be a red

[monz6]

not sure if you're just making the point that berisha has had zero impact (so far) on the game, but he is out there.

Haha you got it. He’s done absolutely nothing hasn’t he

[MFKS]

Why the **** are we forcing Hollywood passes now

Patience ****ers

Move them around chances will come

[belchardo]

Haha you got it. He’s done absolutely nothing so far hasn’t he

always, always put "so far" in when talking about berisha.

i have a theory that ned zelic has a twin. one game he'll be calling for a red for something like shabow's clip, other days he's saying that nobody should be sent off for swinging an elbow at a players head.

[Hunter403]

Berisha only needs a sniff and they are back in it. We need a third

[The Dunster]

The last 26mins the jets have been shit. Ernie needs to get up them.

[The Dunster]

Joeýýýyyyyyyyyyu. I would ne pissed off if that happened to us.

[belchardo]

yewww! great work nabbout. good finish champness. big ups to the ball boy too.

[westjet]

So good. Was really starting to get nervous that victory were going to pinch a draw. Lot less intensity this half. Ernie needs a new half time speech.

[Hunter403]

Ah. Now that's breathing space. Smart play and nice finish

[hawk]

Ballboy who knows how to do a job properly doesnt get a deserved beating

[MFKS]

Was that us actually taking a quick restart instead of ****ing around with it??

That is exactly how you train your ball boys

Forza Bert

[Wilso8948]

Hahahahaha we took that throw in about 30m forward of what it should have been

[MFKS]

Now let's see if we can Berisha sent off for shits and giggles now

[Wilso8948]

Can we have this ref every week?

[plague]

ok not sure if anyone remembers but can anyone confirm if Champness played striker at Roar?


because his two goals this season have been decent striker finishes.

are we allergic to popping him up top and putting nabbout back out in his proper spot?

[westjet]

Holy shitballs. What a hit. Would of wrapped up goal of the season if that went in.

[Retro Jet]

VicTree Foz probably going off like a fish milkshake about now.

Wowwww...was right behind that shot from Dimi on the bar just then.

[plague]

Ballboy who knows how to do a job properly doesnt get a deserved beating


4 Alex tobin points and a wizz fizz after the game.

top night for the young man.

[Wilso8948]

Tonight really does confirm just how much of a shitbag coach muscat is. How the **** is he mentioned as a candidate for the Socceroos job is beyond me.

[The Camel]

With every week Dimi is surely getting closer to a gig with the Socceroos. He's a much better player than Troisi on current form

[westjet]

Give dimi the johnny warren now.

[belchardo]

dimi, what a game.

[belchardo]

Tonight really does confirm just how much of a shitbag coach muscat is. How the **** is he mentioned as a candidate for the Socceroos job is beyond me.

melbourne fans desperate to get rid of him.

[hawk]

cheers for our Thanksgiving

[The Dunster]

I reckon Mr Lee is happy tonight.

[Wilso8948]

With every week Dimi is surely getting closer to a gig with the Socceroos. He's a much better player than Troisi on current form

Now you've done it... you had to say it didn't you...

[Retro Jet]

Now you've done it... you had to say it didn't you...

He's not wrong. We took rookies to 06. Dimi better at least be considered...

[plague]

and to think Merrick had the balls to drop Vargas, Johnny K, Roy and Duncan.

big names mean nothing.

[q-money]

:rof:

i only caught the last 15 minutes but fmd dimi, wowee

[Couscous]

I enjoyed this game.

[monz6]

Let’s just borrow the Will Grigg chant and turn it into DIMI PETRATOS YOUR DEFENCE IS TERRIFIED

[Hunter403]

How many yellows does Ivan have now?

[westjet]

I really cant get used to this feeling of excitement to watch the jets play each week. Such a great team to watch play at the moment.

[furns]

VicTree Foz probably going off like a fish milkshake about now.

Wowwww...was right behind that shot from Dimi on the bar just then.
There is no Victree foz any more. They had a malware crash like us, however unlike us they were too tight to get it fixed.
For all the MV frothing, pls see FB.

fox need to get their eyes checked, the arrow they keep showing adds about 5m extra to the distance on the throw in.

Hey I watching tonight's game on some shitty 3rd world internet stream

I missed the Victree goal due to a technical glitch with the NBN

But we were dominant from min 1 to whenever Milligan got sent off

Victree were chasing shadows

Him getting sent wasn't the reason they lost that game.
They were being smashed in general play well before that

His reaction was just of frustration for him being made to look like a fool by Kanta and co

We bitch slapped them across the park

[Hunter403]

the member on the money again.

we were clearly dominant from the second they scored.
a deserved win.

judging from the victory internetz that i read they admitted just as much.

[plague]

by the way any of you blokes out there still keen on telling me Leroy George will walk this league?

dude is trash

[The Dunster]

Dimi is a genuine no. 10 and one of the best in the league. What happens when Vargas returns ? Nice problem for Bert to have though.

[MFKS]

We sacrifice a centre half and play 1 at the back

Play two no 10s and go for the kill

[Mark325]

I can see injuries ****ing us this season. This game alone georgievski & hoff went off with knocks. Might be good to take it easy with some of these players just to play it safe.

[Mitchy]

It’s just good to watch for a change

We missing the cream of our side and thumped a title favourite

**** this going easy shit

We looking stronger every week

[plague]

Play two no 10s and go for the kill

Zane OUT
Member IN.

Proper football brain right there.

[gd___]

Feels good to still be confident in the team after we go a goal down early in the game, seems to be the routine this year.

[plague]

credit where it is due even Muscat started to mention the send off and ball boy incident and he ended up saying "id be clutching at straws if i went there, we were second best".

bhhahahahahahaha eat a bag Muscat you shitkhunt

[plague]

also while everyone is debating whether Milligans headbutt to the chest was technically a red he actually slapped Petratos in the face straight after so pick which one of the two red card offences he should have been sent for.

[Wilso8948]

Its a big credit to the team when you have your leading goalscorer and striker out along with your marquee no.10 and still be as dominant. Throw in 2 injuries to important wide men in the game. The blokes who came on did an excellent job. Cowburn especially was rock solid. Merrick was on the money though when he said you can't expect kids to consistently come in and be as dominant as they were tonight. Its fantastic we are taking 3 points from games we are very light on. Milligan or no Milligan we would have won that game. The confidence and attacking football you see out there is outstanding to watch.

[Jardelsimage]

must say it was a pleasure to watch last nights game.
Ernie is doing a great job with this team.
Milligan gets upset when someone does to him what he's being doing all year, farkin sook.
did Berisha play cant remember him even being mentioned last night......

[leftrightout]

by the way any of you blokes out there still keen on telling me Leroy George will walk this league?

dude is trash

Me and You Plague... from the start! Don't let a single set piece and a tap in fool you! He is rubbish!

[Macca]

What a great night. I was pretty on the fence about coming in on a Thursday night but man am I glad I did. Gave up the customary early goal, which was a cracker. But other than that I don't think they had a shot on target or had Moss really interested in the game at all bar the one free kick. Not only a comprehensive win, but a very exciting game and the score could really have been anything. Ernie has really delivered on his promise of playing attacking football that is going to excite crowds. When the team buys into it and comes out of their shell, they are really something to watch.

I was really quite worried for our season when Vargas went down. Again after the first half last week I was worried when we were missing Roy (and Brown to a lesser extent). Last night we played them off the park without all three of them and did it in style. Bring on City.

[Jeterpool]

Some stats from last night:

* Glen Moss is player 158 to appear for the club.
* Georgievski became the 75th player to score for us.
* The 17 points achieved after 8 rounds equals the total earned in Season 2014/15 and 1 point behind the total earned last year.
* 45% of the goals conceded by the Jets have come in the opening 15 minutes, 78% have been conceded in the 1st half.
* It was the 4th time in Jets history they have won a match without any Visa players in the team.
* The Jets have earned 11 points coming from behind this season, the most of ANY season in their history.
* The Jets have earned 4 points more after 8 rounds than any other season in thier history.

PS - How's THAT LRO?? Ha ha :brrr:

[lil_masi]

What a great game!! We haven't been that dominant for the 90 for so many years. Reminds me of the 4-0 win we had over victory at home in season 2.
Wow, it was such an entertaining game to watch. Plus with Roy out!! Even being a goal down early I was confident we'd come back.

Hope georgievski isn't seriously injured. Lawrie said Hoff should be right.

Great game boys!! Happy that Lee was there to witness such a performance. Forza Jets

[sammydog]

also while everyone is debating whether Milligans headbutt to the chest was technically a red he actually slapped Petratos in the face straight after so pick which one of the two red card offences he should have been sent for.

I think the headbutt combined with hands on the throat sealed his fate.

Milligan is an idiot for his reaction, he won the foul, we got a yellow.....move on.

[leftrightout]

Hows the amount of cross overs between the two clubs. No wonder there was a bit of feeling.

Nabbout, Georgie, Milligan all heavily involved in the controversy.

Moss and Ernie there too.

[Macca]

Was trying to have a look for who our Visa players are but couldn't find a list, are NZ players not visa players? If so does that mean we only have 3 at the moment?

Correct. Moss is an aussie citizen

[Jeterpool]

I don't recall if it was said, but the Barbarouses goal was a quality strike. I was right behind it and as soon as he hit it you knew it was in.

[belchardo]

about 8,200 crowd last night apparently. will not be surprised to see us push up to 12-15k next week.

member, just a warning mate, there might be some plastics in the crowd. best you stay away.

How about that bullet by Vujica in the first half. Great save my Thomas. Vujica is 1 yellow off a suspension. Georgievski/Roy on 3.

Quite! We were saying the same from above the Ambulance tunnel thing on the Southern Hill. Unbelievable tekkers

[Mark325]

yeah im getting very intrigued by this Shamwow fella.

once we wrap up the Premiership the last few games id like to see Ernie give him and extended run as a starter.
could be a special player.

These kids are very good.
Champness is brilliant, his work rate leaves Euro Gypo Hoole for dead.
At one stage in the second half we were 3-1 up against 10 men and had an attacking corner. Victory clear the ball with then usual boooooot!
Champness turns and bursts to get back for his defenders.
It was the best sign I have seen that 1. His is quality hard working player & 2. Ernie really has these guys playing for each other.

And Shabow’s run with the ball to play in Dimi leading to the 4th goal was quality too. The second he picked up the ball he made a great hard run to create the space for Dimi before playing him in.
Its those little things our youth players have not really done in the past.

One more was Cowburn, he was excellent when he came on!

Still got Antonee Burke coming back from injury. Only young but I think he will be solid as well.

So good to get a stiffy at a game again.

* The 17 points achieved after 8 rounds equals the total earned in Season 2014/15 and 1 point behind the total earned last year.

* The Jets have earned 4 points more after 8 rounds than any other season in thier history.


Am I missing something?

Edit- oh geez, I just realised the first point relates to our whole season total.

Yep. A WHOLE season.

We are also 3 goals from equaling the number of goals we scored in the 2014/15 season as well.

How does he get to be picked with NZ? Dual citizenship? Previous allegiance?

Sure it has something to do with accumulated time laying in Oz for Victree Gold Coast loitering on Bondi Beach etc

Makes him a deal facto Skip
