I like it.. Kanta has to come back in (assuming he is fit)..
Maybe even bring Hoff on, off the bench, when Jair gets subbed due to fitness..

[sorefootballer]

Bonus bet applied. Jets to win at 3.20

[StannyCFCJET]

Jackson at FB no thanks.

[Jetmaster]

Tense but expectant. Not confident but hopeful we turn it on.
After 10 mins on the backfoot we think..." not today" and start planning for next week.
Such is Jets fans life we only need 10 mins to work out if we will win or lose.

10 ??

Can do it in under 5 really most weeks

We are very predictable

Except for those times we start like shit looking like we just met in the car park the opposition hammer us for 30/40mins and couldnt score in a brothel with a fistful of fifties

Then they grow weak as we come into the game and then run away with it

Happens 4 /5 times a season for us

[MFKS]

High time Dimi was removed from set piece duties and it given to Ronny

Dimi about 0 from 1000 for us

Still bludging off that 1 free kick v VARtree a few years back

[plague]

I dont bag players.


But


Just wondering how everyone is enjoying the Lachlan Jackson experience so far?

[plague]

Vargas is a handsome dude isnt he.

[MFKS]

I dont bag players.


But

I do

This Jair bloke

Any chance we can trade him for Usain Bolt??

We have been dead set stitched up here

[plague]

Dont think hes been 'that' bad.

This Ridenton dude though.
The **** is going on there?

[Roundball Enthusiast]

Vargas is a handsome dude isnt he.

Jair better looking, shame he's a shitter footballer though.

[Roundball Enthusiast]

Dont think hes been 'that' bad.

This Ridenton dude though.
The **** is going on there?

I dont think we could identify anyone in a black shirt on the pitch atm as 'good'.

[plague]

I dont think we could identify anyone in a black shirt on the pitch atm as 'good'.
Vargas, Dimi and Ugaboogaman.


Kill the rest with fire.

[380]

Dont think hes been 'that' bad.

This Ridenton dude though.
The **** is going on there?

Said it when we announced him that Ridenton was very average in a terrible team. As for Jackson the bloke looks dead set lost, he on par with Gallaway as one of the worst to ever play that position in a Jets shirt.

[StannyCFCJET]

What has Vujica done to upset Ernie

[weston]

High time Dimi was removed from set piece duties and it given to Ronny

Dimi about 0 from 1000 for us

Still bludging off that 1 free kick v VARtree a few years back

I’m agreeing let someone else take some. Stop shooting from 90% of free kicks within 30 metres of the goal. Mix it up.

[Jetmaster]

Get Kanta on farken.

[The Dunster]

Where is the peoples champ?

[plague]

Jair better looking, shame he's a shitter footballer though.

Dear Foz nerdz please make a poll who more handsome Vargas or Jair.

and yes, we all know the correct answer is Griff, but let's aim for 2nd place.

[sorefootballer]

Good

[Retro Jet]

Vargas is a handsome dude isnt he.

Yep...and a killer smile after a goal too!
:brrr:

[MFKS]

Without wishing to fap about us scoring etc

That goal was just proof that we have lost our way in our last dozen games

When we play at speed going forward we look great

We have spent most of our recenty games trying to pass our way through teams


**** off the tikkja takka shit and play to our strength

[plague]

All you blokes who talked bad about the Hoff look like dickheads right now.

Trump.
Brexit.
Hoff.

Plague on the right side of history again.

[The Dunster]

We have a Roy and Joey to come back yet so not too worried about how shit we are currently playing.

We need to be more direct

[weston]

**** Goodwin. Never liked the guy.

[MFKS]

Good work Boogaarrd

As for the build up was that Jair taking a dive??

[plague]

Good header though.
Jets are gassed.

[The Dunster]

Fark Goodwin is a soft khunt. Well done George

[The Dunster]

We need GVE on the sideline to fark with his mind

[MFKS]

**** you Hoffman

Hopeless as shit

[MFKS]

All you blokes who talked bad about the Hoff look like dickheads right now.

Trump.
Brexit.
Hoff.

Plague on the right side of history again.

Wrong wrong wrong

[boz-monaut]

commentators calling that a 'point blank save' rather than 'the ball came straight at him and he didn't have to ****ing move'

[plague]

Wrong wrong wrong

Typical leftie comment.

[plague]

Jair putting in a good effort I reckon.

[The Dunster]

Ridenton looked spent 15 mins ago. Come on Kanta

[MFKS]

Good news is Kanta is on to kick some one

Never thought i would see the day where Kanta coming in would be a ****ing positive

[Jetmaster]

Stop giving the f#//&* ball away ffs!

[The Dunster]

Kanta has been on for 5mins and looks spent already.

[Imyourhero]

Getting killed in midfield

[The Dunster]

Sell the club. We are shit.

[Retro Jet]

Evans thought because Saddle Aid are red he had to play ManU extra time.

[Bremsstrahlung]

George interview hahahaha

[MFKS]

FAO Stanny

Hoffman cost us 2 points tonight

Add that to a GF and he just keeps building my case

[Frodo]

Boogs is stealing a living yet again. Why did we sign him for another season of that crap?

We look so unfit, or lazy. No effort from anyone to actually win the ball or pressure the opposition. We seem to be walking around the pitch hoping that chances will present themselves. Even Dimi deserves to be dropped on current form, if we had anyone on the bench..

[The Dunster]

Vargas can stay the rest should be on notice. Woefull effort. Far too much piss farting about rather than simply playing the ball forward quickly before the opposition defence can set themselves.
We don't have the skillset to play this slow build up shit.

Ernie can't be happy with the cheap turnovers either.

[Frodo]

Adelaide losing it over the non penalty when they have an FFA final is 4 days is great tho. What a bunch of idiots. Sydney might not even need the Refs to.bwat them after watching that.

[Frodo]

FAO Stanny

Hoffman cost us 2 points tonight

Poor Hoffman is a fish out of water up top. I'd rather we play him in defence and played with Sheppard or Jair up top. At least we'd have 2 fullbacks playing fullback.

[380]

Ridenton looked spent 15 mins ago. Come on Kanta

Turning the ball over two dozen times a game will do that to ya.

Bench time for Ridenton, Hoff and Jackson and in Vujica, Austin and Kanta

[MFKS]

Boogs is stealing a living yet again. Why did we sign him for another season of that crap?


Welcome to 3 to 4 years ago

Watch his work for the cross to Goodwin

Absolutely piss poor defending

Didnt even work hard to try and get to Goodwin

Just ball watching

Shouldnt be doing that as a senior player

[Premy]

I thought players aren't allowed to tell refs to check the VAR

[Frodo]

I thought players aren't allowed to tell refs to check the VAR
**Misread your post and this doesn't answer your question. Sorry Premy.**


Depends which day of the week it is. The commentators said that VAR checked and there was no issue. I thought the ref made a gesture to Isias that it had been checked and ok'd. But I have no idea how VAR works so don't trust me on it, honestly.

[MFKS]

I thought players aren't allowed to tell refs to check the VAR

The way the VAR lottery works why wouldnt you pressurise the ref to have a look at it??

Anything can happen

There aren't that many things you and I agree on Membah. But informing the sheeple about Boogards shortcomings is one of them. I wouldn't mind him sitting on a bench coaching young players and transitioning into the backroom, but why we didn't look for another CB either in the offseason or before we resigned him for next year is worrying.

[Couscous]

Goodwin's effusive celebration was disappointing given all that this club did for him, especially GVE at the start of his career.

Good on him....unless you are at a club for a very long time I have no problem with ex players giving it the big ones. More modern PC respect crap.

Roy a case in point with his hatty....he loved it.

[Bremsstrahlung]

Don’t really have a problem with players celebrating against old clubs. But I do notice when they don’t and I admit I have a little more respect for whoever they are.

Jair’s ball to Hoffman was divine. Shame he picked the only spot that meant he didn’t score.

Thought Ridenton played wel first half V Wellington, but if his trajectory continues he will be riding the pine soon enough.

Can’t believe there hasn’t been much more focus on Jair slipping over in the build up to their goal.
Imo if he doesn’t slip, old mate probably doesn’t put in such a decent cross for Goodwin because Jair would be closing him down.

In this case, though, Newcastle Jets is Goodwin's mother, and GVE is his father, in football terms.

C'mon Gaz the kid had ability long before you got hold of him. And whats with your influence over the Reds style of play last night for the first 25min ?. Had GVE written all over it.

Fair call on Jair but other than that i reckon all his key measures would have been much much better than the previous week eh.


If Ernie continues with Hoff at the point crap get use to sitters being missed week after week. Note to Stanny i said at the point of attack got no problem with the bloke playing in a advanced role out wide. Just thought i would clarify before you go in to meltdown.

Ridenton was one of the Reds best players last night he completed so many passes to them.

I actually agree I want Jair up top

[Jetmaster]

I actually agree I want Jair up top

Maked sense. Jair was supposed to be the Nabbout replacement. Put him in the middle till Roy comes back.

Hoff showed he can provide the service last night, not the finish.

[MFKS]

Hoffman needs to go back to Fullback

Our attack is being stunted by having Jackson as a Fullback

That is 1 side of the park the opposition can push up on us on as he aint gonna hurt them on the counter

Throw in on the right Dimi dont like to go wide but cut inside it is made for Hoffman to overlap from Right back

Besides stopping Hoffman butchering sitters it should help our general play no end as it will pose consequences for opposition if they push on us too much

Bigger question, What has Vujica done to piss off Merrick

[MFKS]

Bigger question, What has Vujica done to piss off Merrick

Jackson does a good job defensively as a full back

He kept their big name signing anonymous last night

He is though honking with the ball

Vujica is slow as and with his speed I am surprised he is making a living as a pro

Vujica defends well and offers way more then Jackson going forward which is what you need in a Ernie team

[Thomas477]

Throw Georgevski at LB and Hoffman at RB, unless we can get an Asian LB, which I wouldn’t be against. Would definitely help in the ACL

[turbojetfireV8]

totally agree with question mark over what Ridenton adds to the team, at this point I am wondering if we can bring in Mullen instead as a special waver for Johnny K, even he would bring more to the team that what Riddy has to date, his runs on the wing and passing are better for a start... :popcorn:

You want Mullen? Ok enough internet for me

[Boss]

Goodwin has always been good. Was shit seeing him head one past the ol jets but **** if anyone here didn’t think he would then you may as well go support tommy oar and Andrew Hoole. Petratos has been absolute garbage and so has Georgevski. Hold on to the ball. Actually, can’t think of many who have been good. For the sake of trying to be like Merrick, I’ll say, maybe, nah and I was trying, there was no one who could hold the ball and/or penetrate.

[MFKS]

Vujica defends well and offers way more then Jackson going forward which is what you need in a Ernie team
King Vuj is slow


Merrick for some reason likes to play Jackson against quick wide players


Make of that what you will

[380]

Maybe Ernie feels we have enough options in our FB positions and is frustrating Vujica into asking for a move to another club under this newly created Under 23 rule.

What Vujica lacks in speed he more than makes up for upstairs in regards to having a brain for that position. Vujica plays with a sense of urgency, Jackson looks like he just climbed out of the farter half the time and in need of a GPS to get his bearings.

[plague]

anyone who thinks that Ivan is demonstrably slower than Jackson and that is a difference in their performance is kidding themselves.

Merrick included.

[StannyCFCJET]

Ivan provides a threat and assists from LB, jackson does not
