Too easy: Melbourne rebound with 4-0 thrashing

4
It was exactly the game the Melbourne Victory needed. A solid win with plenty of goals to keep the club at the top of A-League after seven rounds. Perth Glory were truly lacklustre, all across the pitch. Mitch Langerak was tested just once - and produced a wonderful acrobatic save to keep a clean sheet - [. Click to continue reading...

Perth Glory to get the boot?

2
4,500 people at the recent Perth Glory/Wellington Phoenix has sent the FFA into realism mood.

Lift the game Perth or you are OUT!

Can the Perth Glory franchise stay in the league? They have the franchise until 2010 but if the crowds don't improve, to 8 or 9,000 (yes just 8 or 9,000)the Glory could be given the boot. Click to continue reading...

Why Canberra needs this.

4
Adelaide United fans celebrate last nights historic win. But how many people will turn-up for the Semi Final, they're already talking about switching venues to cope with the crowd...

And whilst Australia and particularly Canberra has been slow to grasp the opportunities that Asia can provide to football, to the city and the region; our own A-League side would benefit the city/region like no other sport. Click to continue reading...

'The Find Out': Salads Salads... and those Broncos

0
Had a great laugh as the Roar got fantastic coverage on ABCTV. Apart from the goals, there was a grab of Charlie talking about the Perth fans yelling out 'salads, salads.'

The Broncos have stuffed up the Roar's next home game - well it was the Warriors beating the Storm putting the Storm into Brisbane on Saturday and taking the top off the Roar crowd. Click to continue reading...

Mark Milligan....is he with Arnie?

4
Remember Mark Milligan, Socceroo, Olyroo, former rising Sydney FC star. He still doesn't have a club, but left Australia..for what?

Will he return? He could get a game with Perth Glory, they need him. Indeed his fellow Olyroo Trent McClenahan doesn't have a team either.

What's to become of the talented but seemingly lost Mark Milligan. Click to continue reading...

Australia bans "Hand of God!"

1
The FFA's match review panel has met. I can hear you sniggering, stop it.

Put your hand up to handle a ball or show a "charades like" let's book him Ref Card, and yep you're banned.

Kick the bejaysus out of someone, trip, pull and interfere with skilful players, exactly what the fans come to see. Click to continue reading...

Magnificent Mariners...Mile and McAllister

4
Central Coast Mariners smashed Queensland 4-2 and Sydney FC put four (4-1) past Perth.

The Mariners lost Ahmed Elrich for the season due to injury and Adrian Caceres before the match.

But they needn't have worried.

Mile Jedinak was back and wiped out any threat from Charlie Miller or indeed any Roar player. Click to continue reading...

W-League:Recruitment drive on.

8
With a number of Coaches announced or about to be announced the race is on to sign the players.

It's a national league and with TV exposure Sydney FC or Queensland Roar romping home with huge win margins would help no-one. So a cunning plan has been devised to spread the player quality across the League and the Country. Click to continue reading...

A-League: Goals, Cole, Goals

3
Shannon Cole scored a superb late free-kick to give Sydney FC an away win in Gosford, and Jade North found the net even later for the Jets in Perth.

Goals everywhere in the opening games.

Shannon Cole scored the winner, he almost did the same the week before against Melbourne. Last week his free kick bounced off the post, this week it went in to seal the win against the Mariners. Click to continue reading...

Oh Nikita you could have been a hero

2
Argentina defeated Australia 1-0 in Shanghai but Perth Glory's Nikita Rukavystya could have stole the show....if he'd have finished one of his three chances.

Argentina ran the show, but Aussie Coach Graham Arnold had his defence working overtime to halt the threat of the Olympic Champions. Click to continue reading...

Lucky Melbourne: Pre-Season Cup Wellington 0 v Melbourne 0 (Victory on penalties)

1
Lucky Melbourne. Lucky Lucky Michael Theoklitos. He should be watching the first few games from his lounge room. He still may if the FFA decides to review the DVD of the game.

Melbourne won but it took them 9 kicks in the penalty shootout. Theoklitos saved them. But he may have been sent off in about the 50th. Click to continue reading...

Olyroos Lack Teeth

2
The Olympic team was announced today and I must say I am disappointed. Greame Arnold has left out Djite, Burns, Williams, Vidosic. He has bizarrely used age as a reason for the decision not to take Djite or Burns. These are the same players that have played against the likes of Kevin Muscat and Craig Moore week in week out.

Rd 15: Glory vs. Victory: 3 - 1

1
With both Adelaide United and the Newcastle Jets winning all three points on Friday night, the Melbourne Victory's Sunday-arvo match against the Perth Glory became all the more critical. A win would keep the Victory within a game of reaching the top 4; anything less would see them recede further away from finals football. Click to continue reading...

Three weeks ago, under the new coaching of David Mitchell, you would have called the Perth Glory a resurgent force. Mitchell replaced the out-of-favour Ron Smith and within days the Glory sealed their first win in a year - a triumphant 4-1 victory away over the Newcastle Jets. But the glory was short-lived.
