VAR - It's Football But Not As You Know It

[plague]

Shearer?? never heard of her. That blackburn team was all Chris Sutton

See. That’s how you do it.

Well in Sir.

[plague]

oh jesus lord mercy.

brilliant just goes in late, studs up and though the player.

Slater, "well he's a little late, lucky not to get a card i guess".

VAR: here have a yellow.

ummm didnt think they could do yellows anymore?

[Jetmaster]

Some quality chuckles were had in the reading of this article.

What does everyone think about the Smurf elbow last night? Looks to me after the last few weeks that they are now leaving those calls to the ref, like they said they would.
Should have been sent though.

At the very least it was a yellow but that would have meant a second yellow and he was off. They’re not going to send their golden boy off- he’s got the JW medal sewn up at this rate. The guy comes across as a complete tool though.

Good to hear Troisi and Muscat accusing the refs of favouring Smurfs, though the Fux boys quickly swept it aside.
Honestly though when you hear commentators go "oohhhh" and mentioning a name over and over you know they are into certain players.

Manny Muscat still the only bloke to smash someone in the face with an elbow “the wrong way” all season apparently.

I wonder if it's a Payola type scam whereby commentators get coin from a players management to mention the player favourably and as often as possible?

FFs Parksey his names Alex Brosque.

Troisi didn't miss did he !. Overrated player but called it for what it is last night. Good on him.

How was that upstart Arnie shaking his head after Ninkovic copped a hack ? don't see the bloke showing the same body language when Brillante performs similar half a dozen times a game. You could half respect the bloke for what he achieved down the road on a shoestring budget but FMD the bloke is so full of himself these days. Can just see the bloke now at the next coaches meeting sitting in the corner all on his own with no one to blame but himself all down to his arrogance and lack of respect for other teams in the league.

The number of times the commentators gave us running updates on Ninkovic after that tackle was ridiculous. Almost every step he took they had to tell us if he was ok, slightly limping, back to a jog... it’s like they thought the whole world had collectively held their breath and blasted twitter #prayforninko

Even for Arnold a lot of his ramblings and actions of late have been way out of character. In the past he's been pretty much about the league - even said some good things about Newcastle when we were really struggling as a club and about how Lawrie and others here would get the Jets back on track.

But this season he's changed his public persona a lot. Maybe he's doing a Mundine / Ali and trying to create some interest in his team - because winning certainly hasn't helped lift their crowd numbers.

firstly.no, the gypo **** never gets, nor deserves an ounce of respect from any propa Jets fan.

second, it takes a certain type of asshole that ticks every box of criteria the FFA were looking for in a new coach yet doesnt get a single second of thought from the people making the decision.

that my friends, is a talent in itself.

hes a loser, and a ****wit. sydney deserve him.

Hail Griff.

Expect some controversy and discussion on the system following today's Liverpool v West Brom game

[Jetmaster]

I for one am happy to foresake one or two bad calls a season for a flowing game. It isnt all about correct decisions and lets face it, this is all about money, not the good of the game.

Nothing wrong with his rambling

No more of a moaning whining **** like Mourinho or SAF

Good on him for being the **** he always wanted to be and needs to be

Match made in heaven this **** and Blue Aids
