People thoughts on this decision? The link takes you right to the moment.

Personally i am happy the PEN was missed as it looks to be a poor decision IMO. Attacker tries to run through the defender who is goal side. Greg from Weston is built like a brick **** house. I think it was a terrible decision. The attacker was never getting that ball defender had all the positioning.
What do you all think.
With regards to Anzac day. Any historian will quite rightly show or tell you that football was played by the Anzacs at Gallipoli or other places whilst battles were going on. At Gallipoli to show the Turks that everything was as normal. In England and France and elsewhere. Australians v French. Australians v British and Australians v Germans in POW camps during WW1 and WW11. Perhaps engaging our football heritage with the local football community would serve us better and give families an alternative to the iconic Australian pub and two up games. Hopefully next year a club, like Maitland who held an Anzac Service yesterday was worthy of note. Bar TV even have the ceremony recorded. Just a thought.
Looked like a bloke running into a bloke and falling over. No pen IMO.Quote:

Cater to the people
Not 1 game in New FM or NPL on a public holiday.
Incompetence from Northern if you ask me
Hell I remember a couple of years ago I went to games on Good Friday and Anzac Day in the same season
I taking it was James Virgili who got the penalty??
Also why is Kale not taking pens for Magic??
Kid takes a pretty good penalty
Fantastic reply :deadhorse:Quote:

Haynsey is by far one of the best penalty takers in the league, and has been for at least 10 years now.Quote:

None from 2, maybe time to hand the responsibility over.Quote:

He has missed a fair few over the years.Quote:

And as every match isnt covered in the herald (even less coverage in Peter's early days) you would have to assume he has missed more than these 3. If reporting was better i would be able to track them down for you. Though as a die hard magic support er i know this won't prove anything to you.
I have seen Kale take plenty when he played for the Jets. Don't recall him missing any of themQuote:

His technique is pretty good.
He generally hits them well enough that when the keeper goes the right way he still isn't getting them.
Which is what you want when taking pens. A strong hit into the goal the keeper ain't ever stopping
Just find it bizarre he isn't taking them as I have seen Haynes take them before but feel Kale is the better penalty out of the two
Bit rough on Maitland , not letting them change to Saturday game this weekend, I think NNSW has given all clubs the option to kick off one hour earlier, but its only Azzuri that have done it ?
In saying that if a club is going to try sign so many big names, former a-league players, they might have to expect losing them here and there with commitments.
They will miss him big time, number 7 for them against azzuri went very well, not sure who he is
It's called commitment, you are or you ain't
Well they obviously are putting these commitments, before the club they are supposedly playing for commitments.Quote:

Lambton 0/3 to start the season ??? Have had Magic and Olympic in there so far but.
Still think they will finish top four ......just
Magic Olympic and also Edgy so arguably a pretty tough first up task on paperQuote:
