Yet they are usually empty. Cove Heights 222 would definitely have public seats available and not be in the sun.

Red-mayne: Socceroo sent off as Sydney FC fall to table-topping Macarthur

We’ve never had prolific strikers. Cahill was our best scorer and he was an attacking midfielder. Viduka was strong, held up play and kept the ball alive for others, but didn’t score many. So from 2006 onwards we’ve been trying to manufacture them – Pim had Kewell and Cahill. Holger had Cahill and a collection of others. McDonald never quite worked. Kennedy was effective at times. We’ve always needed the goals to come from the collective. We still do, but I do like Duke’s energy and aggression and on form JMac and Bruno probably deserve to be there, too.

And to think Sydney were looking at getting him a few years ago. He would have looked good in sky blue.

Once their ownership situation is worked out they will be fine. Such a shame the last one didn’t work out. I’m hoping Ross Pelligra is still in with a chance.

Great name, but bad spelling. I use the Chinese pronunciation of my correctly spelled name.

That’s true – we need to ensure we stack the Olyroos.

So who agrees with Fornaroli going to the Asian Cup as a striker? Fornaroli, Duke and Maclaren – is that a winning group? Too old, not enough cutting edge? Do we need someone at 10, that we don’t seem to have, to feed them the opportunities? Is Robertson growing into that 10, is McGree capable, if fit and maybe Luongo? Can Garang, Yengi or Irankunda give us an edge if one of them is added? Does having Boyle, Goodwin, Leckie, Silvera, etc as wingers give us those goals anyway. Or will big Harry at CB get us plenty of set piece goals?

They need a like button. Sometimes I read and enjoy, but have nothing useful to add so I don’t or I write the generic – good article Mike, that was a great read.

Well said – that’s how I analyse as well.

Just took a screenshot of that name. Do they get trolls as well or is it just football?

I agree it was red. I also see your point about tactical fouls worsening. I hate seeing games ruined with players being sent off for “minor” incidents.

Captain Socceroo – was that Johnny Warren?

Would you choose Fornaroli for the Socceroos?

Thanks David – it’s amazing how many things there are to write about each week and no mention of Redmane’s send off. Perhaps that sin bin that has been mentioned is a real option for the future. I think having options other than send offs, except for dangerous or reckless behaviour, is needed. A ten man team can ruin the spectacle for spectators of both teams, especially when it happens early in a game, and that is a shame.

I believe you’re wrong. I come on here to read comments by people who know more about the intricacies and set ups of games and teams than me. I enjoy the game, but don’t have the background knowledge of others – so come on Midfielder, Waz, Lionheart, Chris1, Redondo, Gary, FIL, Brainstrust, etc – give people like me the ins and outs of the weekend and what a weekend it was. A Jets win against preceding form, Redmane sent off and Macarthur hanging on, Brisbane roaring again, the Wanderers comeback and yes, pick Fornaroli for the Socceroos.

Great heading and article. At 2-0 I thought the Wanderers were gone. At 3-0 I knew they were gone. At 3-1 I could see hope again, but then it was 4-1 and it was over. That wasn’t the way it went and it was a great match – really interesting.

It looks like Macarthur owns Sydney – Sydney is black and white! Who do we Ring for?

They were impressive. I hope it continues and we’re getting close to January and the transfer window.

Bays 209 – 222 probably to 225 (second level) will be out of the rain and sun. And what Gary said is what I would have said.

He certainly looked a player who was destined for a great A Leagues career or more. He is a loss, especially as Grant slows down more. Hopefully Talay will be able to keep these players in the future.

That’s good to read that you think so as well. So great to see talented young players being given a chance.

Wasn’t able to see the game, but glad the Jets won. Hopefully they can play like I read in front of their home fans.

A great effort by Sydney with 10 men. I thought Macarthur were going to do what they did against Victory – go into their shell and squander their lead, but it didn’t happen. I think Redmane has done well with Sydney, but it might be worth further refreshing of this squad and giving Pavlesic an extended run. He looks pretty good.
