Be alert not alarmed.
Birraz was most definately fazed in mudgee.

Bump.
Wassup lads?
not bizzzy enough
Was pretty good up until the goal. One moment of switching off can cost you the game as a keeper :(
Listening the Aaron Kearney on the way home they were talkning about hearing a whistle as the ball came in. This might explain why they all stopped.
Gypos didn't stop.Quote:

No doubt. I'm still not sure why an unphased keeper wouldn't come and contest the ball in his six yard box. At that range the only way your gonna save a header on target is if it's straight at you. Go and punch the thing, even it means cleaning up your player and messing up your hair.
Exactly. In the 92nd minute against your biggest rival you don't wait for the ball to make it's way to you. Attack the ball and make sure it's as far away from you as possible!
Watching the replay just after the ball is kicked Birraz is standing almost on the 6 yard line.

He then back tracks and ends up being behind the goal line when Duke takes his shot.

I understand not wanting to be chipped but the ball came in from almost halfway. If a professional keeper can't judge the flight of a ball from that far out what hope do us Saturday arvo hacks have?
BK would've have flapped that to safety
This is the bigges criticism of Birraz.....he does not command his area. Covic, Vuka, Theo would have gone for it.
More to keeping than shot stopping.
he's behind the goal line when the shot is taken ffs
I notice this thread wasnt bumped after he pulled of the one on one save. How selective are some memorys
My 2c - thought he did well all game. Not willing to blame any 1 player for the goal. Just a clusterfvck
On to the next
About as selective as some peoples memories of BK tbh.Quote:

Read my previous post...he is a great shotstopper, but he gets lost in his area far too often.Quote:

Serious though how shit is BK huh.
After watching BK play Yoof last week and he stood still and watched a shot from 30m go past him and into the net cause he had NFI where his goal was I am content putting up with Birraz's occasional blunder.Quote:

he left it for kew. kew left it for birra. comedy capers. (pretty sure it was that goal)Quote:

Like the one he punched in the first half... the one he could have easy caughtQuote:

Birraz out.. Has had a hand in a goal all 3 games now.Quote:

How many more blunders
Considering his blunder count for the year actually sits at 1 and the rest of them you are just full of shit blaming him when he ain't at fault probably not.Quote:

Yeah that was a bigger **** up than Birrazs howler at the weekend but seen by 100 or so people and the coaching staff who count
It's not just the blunders....he is getting found out and looking less confident every game.
Would take Vukovic over Birraz tomorrow.
I counted 3 blunders???Quote:

2 -- gets a good hand to villas shot at the near post but hand is simply not strong enough.
3.. Lack of communication when again he should of claimed or punched away against the nix

A regulation save of what Is expected by a full time professional goal keeper that has resulted in the opponent scoring a goal.Quote:

Blunder 2... Vs Melbourne City... David villa striker -- from outside the box... Birraz reacts decently and gets there.. however hand isn't strong enough.. resulting in being beaten at near stick..and earning City a draw.. (cost 2 points)
Blunder 3.. vs The nix... Communication and comes out flapping again resulting in a nix goal.. (no points cost)
In total 3 blunders in 3 games.. resulting in 4 points dropped already.
My opinion.
furthermore....
If that was Bk.. the whole forum would be up in arms.... at least he cares.
