Roar in me Blood - 11 Mar 2020 10:53 AM
aok - 11 Mar 2020 10:33 AM

Generally speaking I am happy with either DWH or Mura starting - they bring different things but similar impact to results.

Mura holds defenders in place more and will pick up the odd free kick in a dangerous place when they go through him from behind - DWH poses more explosive/random danger.

I think Mura might be easier to plan with from a Roar perspective and DWH is harder to oppose. So Mura to start and DWH to come on against tired legs around 60 minutes would be my preference.

Mariners though - which would be the better player to oppose Mariners from the start? I haven't seen much of them this season. If they tend to play tight at the back I would start Mura. If they play high and open at the back I would play DWH.



In CCM's last game they really struggled with the striker coming off the line. CCM were playing 3 at the back with Kim as the central player. there were 2 goals scored from Kim stepping up out of the line. I think DWH would be better suited to that sort of role, he drops off the line more and the bursts into that space.

Hopefully RF sticks with the same starting lineup again this week.  Any word on progress of Amadi-Holloway's injury?

We talk about the problems with player recycling, but Aloisi getting another A League gig would trump that.

That's the only possibility really....what does he have that keeps convincing people he is worth it ?
Maybe with Victory's resources he could buy a winning team .....and then confuse them with his zonal play system ?
I personally still love Mirons " Lizard " system.

I dont mind players having a bit of a go at each other when it is deserved, either to fire them up or let them know when their output has dropped (particularly in a win because the winning feeling at the end heals a lot of wounds) but SMD was over the top in my mind. the main one was probably the 3rd or 4th time he turned to the bench to complain, there was a straight ball forward played that SMD dummied thinking Mirza was making a run beyond him. in typical play SMD would have taken the ball and played out the other side but he didnt and Mirza wasnt actually making the run he was just dragging a defender away. SMD got up him and the bench that Mirza didnt make the run. that one was over the top as it definitely was not a typical rotation no need to get up a player when it is not a typical rotation and just a 50-50 gamble that you take that didnt pay off.



How do you know they haven’t been working on that move for weeks and Mirza was out of position? 

The reality is you don’t know what’s gone on in training. You don’t know whether RF had asked Scott to fire up Mirza. To be honest, we don’t even know if it happened as people are saying (it’s interpretation at best). 

So lets not blow anything out of proportion.

In the days when my Boy was too young for The Den we sat just behind the Roar coaching box and heard on numerous occasions Broich and Berisha talking to coaches about poor performing team mates. And they didn’t hold back. 

Berisha was notorious for telling his team mates how they were performing on the pitch, in the changing room and on the training park. And who can forget Steff blowing up at Young?

If SMD was having a go at young Mirza. Good, the young kid better get used to it because that is football. 

If SMD was having conversations with coaches about Mirza. Good, that’s what you want from your leadership group. 

If this stuff is NOT happening a team has a problem. There is generally no problem when it does happen. 

The only player I saw getting a serve at the game was Hingert (still not sure what for, someone suggested it was his cheap turnover that started the WSW goal that caused it). So it seems no player is immune. 

I dont mind players having a bit of a go at each other when it is deserved, either to fire them up or let them know when their output has dropped (particularly in a win because the winning feeling at the end heals a lot of wounds) but SMD was over the top in my mind. the main one was probably the 3rd or 4th time he turned to the bench to complain, there was a straight ball forward played that SMD dummied thinking Mirza was making a run beyond him. in typical play SMD would have taken the ball and played out the other side but he didnt and Mirza wasnt actually making the run he was just dragging a defender away.
