TALKING POINTS:

Memorable Match – 3/3/2012. Round 22, Season 2011/12

  • The Jets were on a good run in 2012, having lost only once in 6 matches. Facing a Victory team boasting Harry Kewell, the Jets struck after 20 minutes through Ryan Griffiths. Kewell converted a controversial penalty on 24 minutes before youngster Jacob Pepper popped up and scored a double in 9 minutes before half time to give the Jets a 3-1 lead. This would be the final score and continue the Jets mid-season revival and run to the finals.

The Jetstream Review – Wombats and Shuttlecocks

Furns (@newyboys) is joined by David (@JeterPool), Body (@BodyNovo) Dr Emma (@Synapse101) and Peter (@OeterB) to review the @NewcastleJetsFC loss to @gomvfc in the 2016 @FFACup

The podcasters decided to record this episode shortly after fulltime at the Premier Hotel. After furns forgot the opening question, the team jumped straight into discussing the Jets exit from the FFA Cup at the hands of the Victory at Magic Park on Wednesday night. We give an overview of the game, before jumping into more detail on the game, rate all the various players performances and discussed the formation and tactics. After individually nominating our man of the match, we also had a brief chat about the Melbourne Victory.

After some prompting, the opening question closed out the review. Stay tuned at the end for post match interviews from Dave and furns with Jets debutants @DevanteClut and @WayneBrown2121 after fulltime. We apologise for the sound quality for the interviews, unfortunately we had no shelter from the wind when interviewing the players.

The Premier Hotel is located at 1 Brunker Road, Broadmeadow. It is located a short walk from Hunter Stadium and Magic Park and is one of the few venues in the area ideal for Jets supporters to meet for pre-match and away fixtures. The Premier also has a great selection of local and craft beers, a busy bistro and a large number of TV’s and bar areas throughout the venue.

Join us at the Premier Hotel in the Front Bar from 5pm for a few drinks, a pre-match meal or just catch up with mates. Supporters of all ages are welcome to join us, u81’s will need to be accompanied by an adult and are not allowed in gaming areas.

We will be departing the hotel after 645pm to walk down the road to Magic Park. After the game, feel free to head back to the Premier, which will be open until midnight. We look forward to hearing your feedback on the venue, and we hope for a great result in the FFA Cup.
