Smart thinking as well to get Neville (I think) to drag himself back into the field of play to slow the game down.

Tiago has some good qualities but for me his negatives are just too much of a liability to the team. Once again (like last season) a reckless challenge of his led to a free-kick and a goal. Also the faking of injuries in order to waste time is a blight on our game....it's not a good look. The culture that GVE is seemingly trying to build at this club seems to be at odds with Tiago's whole style not only in the way he plays but in the way he conducts himself on the field.

I think you'll find most people who aren't Sydney supporters would argue that Free Kick should never have been given. Tiago moved his body in an un-natural way to actually avoid making contact with Del Piero and ONLY win the ball.

I actually think Tiago had his finest game for us yesterday. Absolutely everywhere when he needed to be. Looking forward to he and Mitchell striking up a tight central pairing as the season continues.

Can confirm - hops off his chariot/ stretcher, trots over to the intended missile and proceeds to neck it whilst jogging along the sideline.

a reckless challenge of his led to a free-kick and a goal.

i absolutely love tiago, so won't bother arguing with the majority of your post because i don't agree with most of it, but solely talking about that challenge last night - to me it wasn't even a foul, let alone a yellow and a freekick in a dangerous position. the ref had good & bad moments for both teams last night, and that particular challenge was a definite shocker. also how was it in the second half (?) sydney did a huge tackle on us & play was waved on, then in a matter of a minute or two we did exactly the same challenge on sydney & [mcclenahan?] went down like a sack and i think we got a yellow. adp, and sydney, were and are massively protected by referees.

also, tiago seems to unfairly have a target on his back by referees that says any challenge he does is a foul, regardless of if it is or not. it's bias refereeing against individuals, which doesn't speak that tiago is a liability as much as it speaks that the quality of reffing in the hal is hideous.

I agree with you stopper2.

We as a game are starting to get a lot more positive media coverage. In what was billed as one of the biggest games of the round, probably of the year, and with a lot of neutrals watching who think "soccer" is full of "pansies and actors" is Tiago's behaviour (re: stretchered off and jumping off) what we want them seeing?

I had a laugh of it when it happened, even said if he wasn't on our team I would be pissed with the way he was behaving, but looking back its not what we want to do to attract more people to the sport.

Don't get me wrong, he played in the rules and did what he thought he had to do to get the result - it just doesn't sit well with me. He certainly had a good game otherwise and thought the yellow card was a pretty tough call.

Finally, picking up the water bottle was very funny...

Fully agree with you Wolfman. I thought we had many heroes yesterday and Tiago had a belter of a game. Got many good interceptions in to save our bacon at times. Have always felt the criticism of him last year was a bit harsh. He ain't quick but he makes up for it other ways. Always felt this season after settling in would see him go better.

As far as his tackle on ADP goes. I actually feel it went along way to helping us come away with the 3 points. Yes the free kick may have resulted in an ADP wondergoal wankfest but I feel it sent a message to ADP. Most of the game Rubes and Jobe spent their time jockeying ADP afraid to put a tackle in. As a result he was able to put on a few moves early showing his skills. As soon as Tiago snapped him it was almost as if ADP realised the gloves were off and he was not getting away with walking all over us. As a result despite the class he has everything else he did looked like a man trying to keep an eye out for the next aggressive tackle and as a result his impact was not as great as it could have been on Sydney or the final score.

From Jets Insider this week:


@bradley2HC asks via Twitter: How did that water in the bottle that was thrown at you in Sydney taste? Funniest dude hahaha.

TC: It was beautiful, very refreshing.

:rof:


Full Q&A with our man:


@W0LV3S asks via Twitter: Tiago, you seem to look more comfortable with your role at the back this season. What has been the catalyst?

Tiago Calvano (TC): It’s my second season here, I know the competition better and I know my teammates better. I also know the opposition we play against and that makes it easier.

We had a very good pre-season to prepare. It was a long pre-season but it has helped me a lot this year.

@reidloder asks via Twitter: Who was your inspiration growing up?

TC: Definitely my dad who was a man who I looked up to and he taught me everything. My cousin was another inspiration. He was a footballer and also someone that I looked up to.

@Ivankovic_ asks via Twitter: How did you feel scoring the first goal against Perth last Saturday night?

TC: It is always good when you score but unfortunately it wasn’t enough to help the team to win the game. I’d prefer if I didn’t score and we won the game.

@MrGlass23 asks via Twitter: Congrats on your first A-League goal last weekend Tiago! Could you explain the celebration you did after you scored?

TC: I have a lot of friends in Brazil who go to parties and they dance like that. I promised them when I scored my first goal I would do that dance.

@phhilchhow asks via Twitter: Hi Tiago. Are you excited about World Cup 2014 in Brazil? Do you think we deserve to host a World Cup here in Australia?

TC: I’m very excited for the World Cup in Brazil. It will be an amazing event and a big thing for our whole country. I know everyone in Brazil is really looking forward to it.

As for Australia having a World Cup - for sure, why not!?

@bradley2HC asks via Twitter: How did that water in the bottle that was thrown at you in Sydney taste? Funniest dude hahaha.

TC: It was beautiful, very refreshing.

@Micky_Bridges8 asks via Twitter: Ask Tiago who is the best chef and BBQ champ?

TC: I am! Bridgey was my assistant, but he did a good job.

Shaun Wheeler asks via email: What is it like playing with such an experienced footballer like Emile Heskey?

TC: It’s very good playing with a player like him. He’s very experienced, has played in World Cups and for big Clubs. He’s a humble guy and it’s unbelievable to have him around our team.

Ryan Jensen asks via email: What are you expecting when you play Wellington Phoenix this season, given what happened in pre-season?

TC: It will just be one more game for us and we will try to win like always.

Mitch McDonough asks via email: What was it like to play at Young Boys with Ljubo? How influential was Ljubo in getting you out to Australia? Would you enjoy seeing him play in Jets colours alongside you one day?

TC: It was a good time over there with Ljubo. Unfortunately we didn’t play together too much because Ljubo had a few injuries and there were some changes in coach before he decided to come back to Australia.

He had a big influence in me coming to Newcastle. He called me and asked if I was interested in playing in Australia and that is how I got in contact with the Jets.

He is a good footballer, a good guy and I wish him all the best. If I can see him on the pitch again it would be great.

Mitch McDonough asks via email: You had a run in preseason in midfield - do you prefer midfield or defender?

TC: I’m a defender originally so I think I am more comfortable in defence, but if Gary needs me to play in midfield one day, I’ll be able and I’ll be happy to help the team.

Courtney Parish asks via email: What is your favourite thing about the city of Newcastle?

TC: I like the weather and the people are very friendly. It’s an amazing city and it’s quiet and relaxed, but you also have everything here so there is a lot to do. The beaches are unbelievable too.

Paul Wright asks via email: How difficult is the trip to Perth? Did you ever have to travel that far while you were in Europe?

TC: In Europe when I played with Young Boys in the UEFA Cup we had to travel a long way like we did to Perth, maybe four or five hours. In Brazil we have big flights, from South to North it is like seven hours, so for me it’s not so much of a big problem because I am used to it.
