    a bit of ACL news on sydney bitching about the pitch...

    loved this line from adrian: “We have very important games - a semi and of course grand final - so we expect and I believe we’ll play on the good pitch.”

    I love their cockiness considering they lost to us and Brisbane and then only just recorded wins against Perth, Mariners and Victory.
    God I hope they lost their semi

    when is a pass a "shot assist", and when is it just a pass? and if you put a killer ball through and the person you've passed it to doesn't take the shot, is that a "shot assist"? do the subsequent shots have to be on target to count towards your "shot assist" tally?

    so many questions...

    Pretty sure Hoole lead one of those vague categories last season with us.

    There was also an article about our game against scum and how we were finding form again and showing we had a great chance to topple Sydney in the GF. Everyone’s forgetting they have a match to play in between.

    Yeah it's almost as if you need to watch the games to decipher the stats.

    or disregard the stats like a normal person and just watch the game.

    The club I'm playing with this season has started publishing its golden boot and silver boot (assists) table after each round.

    Is this the new normal?
