D'Apuzzo cracked the 100, didn't he?

[idontwannaplaywithhowey]

****ing disgraceful.

Maybe our lack of fitness, possession and defensive structure impact upon the number of cards we get?

[Thomas477]

Burns to score a hattrick. Jest to loose.

D'Apuzzo 102
Haliti 92
BK 91
Kanta 91

Griffo 72 A-League, 117 if you include the 45 Newcastle United caps. 17 caps short of Tarek.

[Premy]

Andy Roberts
Breakers-88
United-68
Total- 156

Griffo 39 short of Andy.
Thats as far back my knowledge goes has anyone else represented a Newcastle National side more than Andy?

I've got BK on 93. Hmmmmm

[Premy]

I've got BK on 93. Hmmmmm

My source is Wikipedia so It's probably wrong. He has 2 Australian youth caps, could that be where you are getting 93 from.

[Premy]

Nope you're right it hasn't been updated in over a month so with the last 2 games you would be right. As if o ever doubted you pfft.

Herald said from S1 R20 - S2 R7 is our longest period winless. That's 11 games
