****ing disgracefulQuote:
Melbourne Heart shrugged off an experienced Newcastle Jets side 3-0 in their National Youth League clash at John Cain Memorial Reserve on Sunday.
An early strike from Paulo Retre set the tone for the performance before striker Evan Batsis gave the Heart breathing space before half-time.
Substitute Zac Walker rounded out the game with 10 minutes to spare.
Newcastle started the match with a strong line-up – featuring senior players including former Heart full-back Craig Goodwin, flying winger James Virgili and midfielder Jacob Pepper.
The home side went with a youthful side that included yet-to-debut former Gold Coast forward Gol Gol Mebrahtu and ex-Roar back-up keeper Andrew Redmayne.
Heart pressed early and hit the front in the sixth minute after Retre floated a wonderful volley into the top corner from outside the area.
The lead was doubled halfway through the first period when Jeremy Walker beat the Jets' offside trap and found himself one-on-one with keeper Jack Duncan. The right winger squared the ball to Batsis, who had the easiest of tap-ins.
Walker was a constant threat down the right side and his good work should have resulted in Heart's third on 24 minutes. After being released down the right, the winger's pull back was blasted over the bar by Ersin Kaya.
Virgili was the Jets bright spark in the first half, taking on defenders and getting into good positions – with his final ball lacking the required quality.
In the opening seconds of the second half, Kaya had a golden chance to put the game out of reach but skewed a volley well wide from the penalty spot.
The miss could have proved costly as substitute Kale Bradbery advanced on the Heart defence with two teammates in support. Instead of passing, the forward's deflected strike fell to Virgili and Redmayne made a terrific save to deny a rising, goal-bound effort.
Substitute Zac Walker finally snuffed out the Jets' chances on 80 minutes when he cleverly nicked the ball past a defender in the penalty area and finished past Newcastle substitute keeper Nicholas Hartnett.
With their third win of the season, Heart joined second-placed Newcastle on 10 points as they finally climbed into the top half of the table.

Kale benched after a Hat trick the week before.
Zane Out

i like how they don't even reference jesic as a first-team player anymore.
so mitch cooper is back - any reports on how he went? true waterboy is dying to know when his boy is getting into the senior squad
I know results aren't the priority at this level but with the team the Jets put on the park and the result, Zane should be getting a "please explain" from GVE.
Anyone see the starting lineup for the game against the Mariners?
-----------------------Vrteski------------------------
Campbell---------?--------------Galloway-----------?
-------------Oxborrow---------Grossman------------
Hoole-------------Finlayson-----------------Cooper
------------------Bradbury------------------------
Remo was on the left, wasn't he?
yeah Remo LB...Cowburn CB
cheers guys. turned up late. Wasn't sure
Just a casual observation on my part but it seems to me whenever the Youth side wins, the lineup is the nucleus of the side that done so well in the NBN League this season i.e Hoole, Bradbury, Campbell, Cowburn, Finlayson, Remington and Galloway(to a lesser extent as he didn't play that many games).
All local lads too!!!
Gallaway was not too bad when defending but his passing was awful. Think 2 of the 3 goals came from CCM possession after he had turned it over.
Galloway did play plenty in the NBN League. Missed start of season due to injury but once fit was pretty much a mainstay in centre defence except for his goal keeping exploits.
On another note how good was the two goals by Kale?? Haven't seen finishing of that class at Stade de Newy since Lord Griffo used to play for us!!!
Nah mate you are wrong about Galloway. Mason Campbell was there at CB all season, Chapman played a few games in the 1st half of the season while Galloway didn't actually figure till the 2nd half of the season.
I agree with you on Kale.....knew this kid was something special when I saw him as a 16 year old carving it up for Magic 17's.
Didn't get to the game this morning due to work. Why the ****ing 10:30am start?? Make the woman play at that time and let the boys play in the arvo?? Craig Deans initiative obviousslyQuote:
The Newcastle Jets have moved into the top four on the National Youth League ladder with a sparkling 4-1 win over Sydney FC in sweltering conditions at Wanderers Oval on Sunday morning.
The Jets line-up featured A-League regulars Bernardo Ribeiro and Tiago Calvano as well as the return from injury of goalkeeper Ben Kennedy and they controlled the match from the outset.
A first-half brace from Socceroo Adam Taggart and a goal to Kyle Bradbery gave the home side a comfortable 3-0 lead at half-time.
Bradbery doubled his tally midway through the second half before Sydney striker Alec Urosevski slotted a late goal to give the scoreline some respectability.
The win moves the Jets into fourth place on 17 points while Sydney remain in eighth place on 10 points with the rest of the round to play.
The match got underway in stifling heat that forced a number of drinks breaks throughout the match and it was the home side who controlled play early without threatening the Sydney goal.
It was in fact the visitors who fashioned the first chance in the 15th minute when right fullback Trent McClenahan made a strong run down the right wing before getting in-between Jets defenders Mason Campbell and Taylor Regan.
The Sydney FC defender then took play inside the box before firing a curling left-foot shot that beat Newcastle goal-keeper Ben Kennedy only to rattle off the far post.
The home side wrestled back control in the best way possible with a goal from Bradbery. Andrew Hoole got into space down the right win before squaring to Taggart in front of goal. His scuffed shot was deflected into the path of Bradbery who buried it into the roof of the net to make it 1-0 after 18 minutes.
The Jets doubled their advantage when the industrious Bernardo played an incisive through ball for Taggart, who took one touch into the box before calmly slotting past Sydney goal-keeper Anthony Bouzanis.
Sydney had their chances in front of goal but couldn't convert.
Christopher Naumoff showed good control to weave his way into the box but he fired his well-struck shot just wide of the far post before Alec Urosevski chased a through-ball to go one-on-one with Kennedy but the Jets custodian did well to smother the shot.
Moments later the Jets had their third when Hoole once again broke down the right wing before cutting the ball back to Taggart, who slammed a right-foot shot into the far corner for the Jets to hold a 3-0 lead at the break.
Newcastle maintained their dominance after the break, constructing a series of impressive raids engineered by Bernardo, Hoole and Bradbery causing the Sydney defence plenty of headaches with their pace and runs into the box.
Bouzanis denied another Jets goal when he made a fantastic diving save to push away a strike from Mitchell Oxborrow late in the match.
The Jets eventually profited from their pressure when Bradery took advantage of a well-engineered move through the midfield to slot home six minutes from full-time.
To their credit Sydney continued to attack and eventually got on the scoreboard when Urosevski beat the offside trap and slotted past substitute goal-keeper Jack Duncan to make the final score 4-1 to the Jets.

Disgrace that this bloke don't get given a go in the HAL side
Heskey Out Kale In
Yes later starts I didn't rock up till nearly 12pm
Under lights would be better :)
Due to the lopsided fixture list with a pile of home games at the end of the season have only got to 2 home games this season out of 4. Missed both the 2 that kicked off in the morning. Got to the Gypo game at Stade de Newy and the WSW effort on a Thursday night. All I can say is Thursday night was magic. Kick back relaxed and reminded me of playing over at Breakers Stadium back in the day with a small ground at a stadium that isn't just all bricks and cement the newer ones are. Why aren't we playing all the time at this time giving the fans a good night out as opposed to have the kids playing in the heat of the day at a shitty time that wouldn't be convenient to many??
Insane
Those are the only two I've been to as well. The Thursday night game was fantastic, train out after work, great way to spend the evening. Would never miss a game if that's when they all were.
Who is Bobby Russell
Russell must be one of these new recruits from Sydney that have mysteriously appeared over the past few months because our local boys aren't considered good enough in the eyes of Zane/Pascoe!
Played yoof for GCU.
^ marginally.
Yoof on tomorrow V Melbourne Victory at Wanderers Oval Kick Off 5pm
Entry free so get your arses down to it
yeah i'm goin to watch the magic which is jesic
anyone going in to watch this, hopefully we get a feckin win!
Hung on for a 1 nil win.Ribs with the goal. Jesic was Jesic. And looks like we're trying to make a RB out of Pepper again.
Kale on the left wing replaced early in 2nd half while Jesic allowed to dish up garbage for 90 +. Member please explain ?
i thought mason campbell was class above today, nick cowburn played well and andrew hoole is essentially like a workhorse version of chilli
that being said riberio walked the whole game
we were lucky to get the victory tho, with one of melbournes wingers being offside about a gazillion times and then them missing an open goal
although i did not watch said game, my theory on kale may be proven true. apart from being a right-place-right-time, and good finisher kind of player, he's useless. doesn't run, doesn't add much to general build-up play, etc. apart from playing directly up front, if he's put anywhere else he goes missing & doesn't contribute at all. this is why he'll never make it in the hal - they'll put him in one of the wide positions, rather than striker, and he'll struggle too much. sounds like that is what happened yesterday, with him being dragged from wide left.
or am i talking bs as usual?
What I've seen of Kale is that he is always dangerous in and around the box and keeps the opposition on their toes because of his sheer acceleration over 5-10 metres. You can't coach that, you either have it or you don't. Put it this way, if Heskey is out injured now with this quad strain, Taggart will probably come in, I would love to see Kale come onto the bench and at least get a run for 10-15min at the end of the game when it usually opens up.
Redmexican commenting about Campbell, Cowburn and Hoole, not surprised at all as these 3 were arguably our most consistent youth players during the NBN state league season. Hoole has been training with the seniors and Cowburn is still only 17 but I hope Campbell is added to the senior squad for next season....quality young defender and leader to go with it.
Peppz will never make a right back from what I seen yesterday!!!
Even though Kale had had one of his quieter games it was quiet pertinent to note we were deadset AIDS as soon as he went off. Hooley also dropped back to RB from attacking wide right role and poor Marko was left up front with 2 other nobodies and we couldn't keep the ****ing ball. Victree looked like scoring in the last 30 mins quite regularly but kept farking it up for themselves. Matter of fact it is a classic example of why Jesic WILL be sentenced to 3 years hard time at Sydney FC
Got to agree with the comments on Ribero some nice touches here and there but he spent most of the game walking and if he did start moving faster it can only be classed as a trot. Can't see GVE being too impressed with that.
PV4 as fro your comments on Kale- I will just pad up and let them go through to the keeper :whistling:
Though you do make a good point about the kid getting a chance in the wide positions and not being a success being a fear. Problem is he is a striker so he should be played as a striker its alright letting him go and learn a different role from time to time but he is a striker first and foremost
Was pretty impressed with 3 yesterday Remo is gonna make a great left back. Cowburn is coming along well and also our New Captain Mitchy Cooper must be getting close to forcing the Eggs hand and giving him a run
i think he's too small to be given a striker position in the hal whilst not being an absolute pocket-rocket ala archie thompson/yau. hence why i think if he gets a hal gig, it'll be in one of those wide positions & i can't see him working out.
Pocket Rocket?? What you talking about??
Kale has great acceleration and speed. Nothing to worry about on that front
as you know im a big fan of kale, but honestly he will be used chilli esk and if the time and effort doesnt go into helping him into he wont succeed at HAL level, if anything he may be able to be moulded into a fake #10 or #9 but yeah, more then likely a wide position, which at this stage i dont think he will do well in, did work well with ribs yesterday tho
the comments on riberio walking the game is so true, but on the ball he is good and he vision is sensational
Pretty accurate really...for him to have a chance of making it in HAL centrally he'd have to be playing next to a Heskey type 2nd striker who shows for the ball,holds it up,drops it off and he making the 2nd run etc. Looked well out of place on the left wing...time will tell I suppose. One thing I will say about yesterdays game is the yoof are gunna be very hard to beat in the state league this year
seldom : do you think after seeing campbell yesterday he should atleast get a bench spot for the backline if gary is chopping and changing ?
