The endless (and probably pointless) GK debate thread.

[Jetmaster]

With that beard Birraz looks like a bat!

Hence the flapping.

[Couscous]

This coming from a mong like yourself Mr Dillon with a head like a beaten favourite.

With respect to pure sexual magnetism: Birraz > Bob Dillon > BK

[GazFish35]

Interesting way to concede.
Cross into box, keeper retreats.

Popa must have done hours and hours of analysis to find that option.

[Jetmaster]

I give up....every point Birraz saves with his shot stopping he gives back a few weeks later with that sort of rubbish. Eugene, Vuka and Sorensen all would've claimed that.

[weston]

Birrazz should have saved that first ball but where was the marking. The finger has to be mainly pointed at the root of the problem not the end of it. If you mark the man chances are he doesn't get the clean header on goal.

Let's play without a keeper then.
Thread is about goalkeepers so I thought this might be a good place to highlight an obvious error one of our keepers keeps making.


Hope van Stratten can sort this ASAP.

Some people (especially Birraz Facebook bum chums) just don't get it. Like the through the legs stuff last week, the issue isn't the odd error in shot stopping....every keeper makes them every season.

The core issue is that a quality keeper would have claimed the free kick in the first place. It was floated in and it wasn't overly congested.

However, note the boy wonder's positioning when the kick was taken.

[BP Super Dynamos]

At least both our keepers are better than Paul Izzo. Our national U/23 side are in all sorts if he's the best available

[Jetmaster]

Bump...six...Birraz out.

[Jeterpool]

I think those at the match last night saw Birighitti in Jets colours for the last time. If he was realistic, he'd be looking to head overseas as a free agent.

The player we saw this year was similar, but definitely more refined, to the player we saw in his first year. He's had a bumpy ride with the club, losing his sport a few times due to poor form. Had he left last year, he would have left many with a sour taste in their mouth about his time as the Jets custodian. His performances this year have restored the faith in his ability.

I expect he will be remembered for the reflex saves that kept us in matches this year more so than for the controversies and poor saves such as that miss against Bosnar and the "phased" debacle. He could arguably be considered in the same echelon as Ante Covic who in fairness had a much stronger defence in front of him.

If he stays in the league, I really hope it's with us. But if he goes, he goes with my good wishes because I'm of the opinion he can reach greater heights and learn much more about his craft than this league can provide.

Birraz will be remembered as the only reason ONLY reason we didnt win the spoon this year

[Jeterpool]

I don't agree with that. We have been much better as a whole defensive unit. Birraz has been good but he hasn't saved us/won us 17 points

What if goes to the gypos? They clearly need a better keeper!

Perf me thinks.

Still not liking the taste of those grapes are you??

Reality is he has improved this season he has been our top performer consistently.

He had achieved a standard your love child BK never has and never will.

Yet you still can't give credit where it is dur
Thread title is apt.

Newys No 1


How you liking them grapes now???

But if he goes, he goes with my good wishes because I'm of the opinion he can reach greater heights.

no no no no no no no, this is a defeatest mentality that we need to get out this club. If he goes he's a cvnt. He should stay with us and build a dynasty.

fk this better life sh1t, we arent a welfare or we'd be delivering meals on wheels (good idea during the week should try it).

Biraz deserves an even bigger serving of dap because he had Boogaard actively campaigning to **** his shit right up all season yet we were still better than the Gypos.

Amazing feat.

If he goes o/s and gets a starting gig in a better league them I'm all for it.

If he goes to another A-League club I'll be leading the line with Hawk to tar and feather the judas prick.

Quite looking forward to the return of BK next season!
Birraz improved this season but still not 100% convinced of his aerial ability. Would hope he goes to one of the tougher leagues to sort this out.
If he stays in Oz, odds on Perth and immediate cvntness...Covic past it and he fits the returning locals edict over there....that salary cap must be feeling the strain.
