Central Coast Mariners vs Newcastle Jets
Saturday 7th May 2022
Kick-off: 7:45pm
Venue: Central Coast Stadium
Ref: Adam Kersey

A win or draw for CCM could put them in 4th which would mean a home final. (dependent on the result AU vs WU game)

So dumb having no game last night, and then playing both of these at the same time tonight. Soooo fucking stupid. 

Would be good to see ‘Harry’ Kuol get more minutes - especially given form he’s consistently showing

I will be interesting to see the crowd numbers with the "bring your mates" promo happening.  

Funny shit

 

It'd be a massively poor reflection on our development yet also a big surprise if Mikeltadze became a Socceroo one day. I anticipate Georgia will call hi up within 5 years at this rate.

Goodwin needs to start next season. With Penha leaving, perhaps they can go two up top.

He has two international caps already - no idea if they were competitive fixtures. 

Hope so. Needs to get his body right. Has looked pretty wrecked in most games this season. 

Crowd looks great! 

Cummings and Boyle together va UAE is a must. What a well taken goal.

Yeah I think I looked and recall them as friendlies but just a thought. Someone wants Nkololo to be naturalized. He'd be 30 by then.

Criminal clearance from Warland there. Regan has to be a candidate for a red card. 

daggers and cummins both making pretty good auditions for the roos it has to be said

Would definitely pick Daggers and Cummings, and Taggart and Ruka before JMac and Duke

Hope Papas can find some fullbacks for next season. Miller absolutely puts our options to shame. Warland is clearly a CB, Ingham is just so tentative.

Yuel needs to get at Roux more, otherwise I'd bring on Silvera soon. 

What is the actual reason to have two Saturday games at the same time?

The rest of the season has been a mess due to covid, right? There's surely no way these random weekday games could've been seen as a good idea besides the generally successful Christmas period games.

Beka, noooo! Horrid miss

I keep wondering. We know JMac has a gold shirt curse. Taggart has been fine and assists and works well off the ball. The others need the chance and it could even take 10 caps before they start kicking on. Not now, but I find Giannou was very underused. Probably the best up top at UAE 19.

Well taken goal by Cummings.Certainly he has to be in the mix for a Socceroo spot as does D'Agostino

As I type Mikelhadze misses a sitter at point blank range

Harper is so OTT about Yuel. He should have been tearing Roux a new one tonight. 

Another season done. Congrats Coasties. It didn't work out, but I'm keen to see what Papas can do next season. Hopefully we can move on some deadweight and get some owners. 

Season over, but you'll still have the Australia Cup play-off game next weekend against Glory. Should be a comfortable win at home. 

You're right... Wasn't sure when that was being played. I guess we'll still have Penha then! 

Yeah much better having those play-off games now rather than pre-season. The players are match fit and will be keen to end on a positive. Contracts are usually based on the financial year, so Penha should be available. 

Absolutely superb world class goal by Cummings. Don’t think any other AL striker close to his class atm. He was surrounded by 3 defenders when he hit that 

Yep it was classy.Hardly any back lift so hard for defenders and keeper to pick it up.

Cummins ,Boyle and Rogic( as long he brings his Celtic form) would give us a formidable strike force for the UAE game.Some people  might argue against having Cummins in the team as he was born in Scotland but at least he is playing for a local club.Players like him can teach young strikers how to use their abilities and how to contribute to a team

Boyle Scottish born as well as Cummings but they have played together already for Hibs and best attackers/goal threats available for Roos imho

really scraping the barrel here with Cummings being a contender for the WCQ…
