Coolincold – well done posting that vid. The Qld police have much to explain about their actions on match day. The APL, has to act on this evidence and also take it to Channel 10 to expose this unnecessary heavy-handed 😔 .. action by the Qld police..
How do A-League fans convince police that passion is not a crime?
Well, I’m not surprised she most likely follows the Brisbane Lions and not the Brisbane Roar. Why not get police officers, who follow football to police the crowds?

Yep, I thought so a leadership problem.

I posted this comment on another article.
“Great presentation on Ten Bold. Good atmosphere and a good game to watch. The only blemish was to see the RBB walk out of their block behind the goal. Showing no character supporting their team.”
My comment as it seems is contradictory to Mike’s article. I would love to hear from any eyewitnesses about what did occur, in Saturday’s night match (WSW vs SFC); was it police intervention or just pure bad sportsmanship on the part of the RBB?

'I take full responsibility': Rudan can't blame refs this time after Wanderers embarrassed in derby demolition
Heyman was outstanding. She led the front line with real passion and determination that we haven’t quite seen before for a long time. Our WAL has unearthed a real gem that bodes well for our local competitions.

Congratulations Matildas for qualifying for the Paris Olympics, but what did we learn? Our fringe players outperformed the regulars.

Great comment—I wholeheartedly agree.
The Central Coast Mariners are a reminder of what's good about the A-League Men
TSS – Is Tilio that much taller than Nisbet? I thought Nisbet was too small too once, but he has shown other qualities that have changed my mind about him. Deserves to be included in the squad against Lebanon on his current form.

Nisbet missed the best chance of his season, only to see he got another then hit the crossbar. I believe he thinks he is cursed from scoring goals and so he overthinks his opportunities. Nonetheless, the player is a good playmaker and the reason for CCM’s success on the field. I hope Arnie picks him for the squad; it would be a fitting reward for him for an outstanding season so far.

Me too Grem. We agree. The home team must show their fans they don’t take them for granted and put on a good show at home. CCM rallied in the second half for their fans to take something home from the game. The CCM won the second half for mine.
The A-League is enjoying a purple patch and we're all the beneficiaries
Really a great round of football. Funny enough as a SFC fan I found myself cheering on CCM to get back in the game after a disastrous first 20 min. 11k + at Gosford that was good to see.

Sadly there is a lot of truth in your comment. Australia’s mainstream media only responds to success on the field. Such a pity. 😔
Are we a mature enough football nation to honestly discuss the Socceroos?
Disagree, you could also say we didn’t have the players to defend a “Low Block”. Arnie also tried to defend a lead in the Olympics with a “Low Block” and we went out similarly. Subs at the 70 min. should have had Kusini Yengi, and Marco Tilio, for the press in the top third (2 players full of running and skill) in a 442, Thomas Deng, at right back (knows how to jockey attackers in the box) instead of Miller’s naivety.
What might have been: Socceroos valiant in defeat as missed chances, not Arnold, to blame
Kudos, to kick-off time. See it can be done, all added to an excellent game and goals galore. Apart from the WSW manager’s bad sportsmanship, it was an excellent TV Sunday night football viewing, from the Gold Coast.
Wanderers play victims again as Rudan launches childish, Trump-like conspiracy theories
Yep, Stevo – that’s it 😊 Thanks for the memory.

Stevo – This quote by an unknown author I read many years ago fits our sortie beautifully. “Some goals can be so glorious, it can be even more glorious to lose”. (Not sure of the correct structure of the quote, but that is very much the meaning of it).

The recent WU vs SFC match in Hobart drew 5k plus. That matches Brisbane Roars matches on most occasions. Tassie in with a rectangle 15k boutique stadium built in Hobart—that’s much better than a proposed $750m stadium for the AFL.

You don’t tackle inside the box, you jockey the attacker inside the box until the attacker has nowhere to go and makes the first mistake. And if you do decide to tackle inside the box you b* well have to make sure you make contact with the ball first. ‘Neil in 2006’

When Arnie retires as the ‘National Manager’, we mustn’t lose Arnie from the system—the years and knowledge he has gained in Australian Football are invaluable. I would like to see him go on as our ‘Technical Director’.

I think Arnie at times gives these teams too much respect. Instead of defending the zone push up and defend from the front third.

The thing is: had Deng been in Miller’s position he would have jockeyed the Korian to the bi-line and out. You must ask Arnie why Deng wasn’t used in that position, an intelligent stay-on-your-feet RB in the box. That said we have to put our arms around Miller and Arnie because they gave it their all. That’s football.
'Devastating', 'painful', 'punished': Socceroos OUT of Asian Cup after Miller's moments of madness
Yep, I totally agree with you Cavaquinho, we invited the South Koreans in, to take the match from us. How does one put it? We snatched defeat from the jaws of victory. (By sitting too deep to defend a 1 nil lead).

“It had nothing to do with an unauthorised banner but more to do with the organisers of the banner not allowed to return to their area even though it was organised with everyone before hand.”
If this is true then we have to hear from the NSW Police/Security as to why they had taken the action they did. We now need to hear from the APL with full transparency about what did occur and what didn’t occur. The APL and the FA owe it to the entire Australian Football family.
