Yeah I’m ok with that
besides if he scores a double on debut he won’t be benching to long
wow Jaffas 1 Adamstown 1
Up the mighty Rosebuds!
Anyone see what happened in Magic v CCB game that had Magic player rolling around the ground in apparent convulsions late in the game. Watched on bartv but they missed incident. That same player only moments before had pulled down blues player in the box as he went for a header. Looked a dangerous and very cheap shot. Surprised it wasn't a penalty as he grabbed player and flipped him on his back.
First Sunday free in a long time and the Lubjo factor drew me to the game, Magic should of had a penalty early on when Lubjo pulled Virgili back when one on one with the goalkeeper, Charlestown should have been awarded a penalty for the incident you mentioned and Lubjo should have seen red for a cheap shot in back play. Magic physio was very animated towards Lubjo's cheap shot.
Then you had the Magic head coach and assistant coach continually throwing a second ball onto the pitch at throw ins to stop the game and waste time due to the ref stopping the game for two balls being on the field. A very poor look for both coaches and the club
I assumed he must have done something but sideline official seemed more interested in telling the Magic number 20 to get back on his feet. Everyone that mattered looked like they thought it was a dive.
Ruben is starting to get fired up, isn't he on some sort of probation from incident late last year?
The referees look scared to punish lujbo and give him cards like they would any other player in the league.
The referees seem to be very magic biased this season, they were like this for games vs edgeworth, Charlestown and Weston too.
Coming from a magic follower
I agree with your comments.
Except, i feel magic have always had the luck of the referee's on their side.
Can't comment on the Edgeworth and Weston games but I didn't see the ref do Magic any favours, if anything I thought Charlestown got the better of the calls and yes referee was very lenient on Lubjo, he could have easily been sent for the last man challenge on Virgili early in the game, only thing that saved him I thought was that Virgili stayed on his feet.
And probably the fact that last man challenges aren't always instant red cards anymore.
Magic physio was repeatedly told to leave the field after again time wasting, ref can be heard twice on bartv ( 85min )asking duty officer to remove him...... nothing done at all and physio remained on sideline .. why ??
Typifies the type of club magic are ...... Grubs
Wrong... person asked to leave was a Magic supporter that threw a ball at Matt Tull, after Matt he had smashed a ball into the crowd, supporter had stopped the ball from hitting a pregnant woman.
If the referee had asked an official on the bench to leave, why would he restart the game without the official leaving? Thats like giving a red card and playing on with the player still on the field. Nothing was recorded in the match report on any issues with either team.
Magic physio had an issue with the elbow from Ljubo on the young Magic defender which was clear to see by all including the lines-person, which called the ref back. If a player strikes another player in back play in the head, with the ball not within a cooee... how is that a yellow? Young refs must have been starstruck. Truth is Ljubo should have been sent off in 10th minute for last man contact on virgili, looking at the video prob not a pen as contact was first outside box, just, but still last man outside of box DOGSO, red card... escaping 2 reds in one game... thats Grub worthy.
Wow, that’s a bit out of order
Again, just letting you all know. Last man challenges aren't always instant red cards anymore.
Watching it on bartv.. Ljubo's challenge in the 10th minute on Virgili isn't worth discussing, it was either not a foul or a foul that advantage was played, and Virgili well and truly played (and wasted) advantage. Nothing in that challenge.
OK
Denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity (DOGSO) is still a red card, the only time it isn't is if it happens inside the box and the defender attempted to play the ball. DOGSO outside of the box, whether playing the ball or not, is a red.
But as I posted above, there was no DOGSO foul in the Ljubo/Virgili incident.
OK
