Aussie referees, give a softie a yellow, give a swinging arm a condone. Only in Australia. Guys, please be consistent. either be fair to both sides or be pricks to both sides,

Skotadis should be off

McCowatt has been really poor; needs to bulk up a bit, gets bumped off the ball so easily

Many on here said that about Singh and he silenced them. Its about skill not size

Devlin exhibits this very thing. he's one of the smallest in the league, yet his is dominating players.

Sure, but McCowatt gets bodied out of the way before he can show any skill.

Singh was actually very good/smart about using his frame. I haven't seen that from McCowatt at all yet.

Would not play Hooper today; pitch is almost certain to kill his knee

This is great. We are totally dominating this with our speed and transition trough the park.

Is Berisha even playing?

WU started very strong this half. We haven’t been able to press them effectively. Burgess starting to find space as well.  Time to pick it up!! COYN!

YESSSSSSSSSS!

Happy for McCowatt to get off the mark. Hopefully get's his confidence levels up too.

Time to get the goal difference a push in the right direction. We want 7!

Calvert injured, looks like he goes off just before he gets close to earning a second yellow if he continued.

Replaced by Dario Jertec who played full game in Wellington against us.

What play by Piscopo for that goal by the way; he gets better every game - so annoying he's going away for a month

Where are they hiding? In the gum trees? All I see is fields and a grass bank to the left. The cameras must be in the only stand.

Jertec gets a yellow after very good body work by Piscopo. Excellent skills. Free kick to be taken by Davila. Ends with a shot wide of goal that does not connect with Cacace, shame that.

Seventy minutes gone. It is still a bit too fast a game on a hot afternoon to get Hooper to come on, but I would not mind seeing Waine.

Yep. We're still looking better than them. But they've had a few chances. And we're just a touch slowing. The two goal buffer good to have. Three would be better.

The commentators are full of praise for The Nix, except that pearl at 75 minutes: "Wellington are not safe yet, a goal for WU would change the game completely".   Do not want to be a jinx, but with 75 min gone the best the WU can hope for by now is a draw. Drinks break, and Hooper coming on with Simon Hill saying "more trouble for WU as Hooper comes on for Piscopo".

Bringing Hooper on here seems like a mistake - should be bringing on TAHW and Waine for hard running

Asian Under 23 qualifiers run through January (8th - 26th). Any player called up will be gone for a month. Piscopo pretty much a lock in and Devlin has played himself into contention in the last three games
