A-Leagues Ins and Outs: Sky Blues captain makes long-awaited return, Matildas veteran back in the mix for Victory

Sorry but Why the fuck is Jed Drew starting before Toure and Arzani?! 

I wanted to watch this game but paramount+ wouldn't fire up.

Macarthur are fucked. DeSilva and Rose were available according to Keep Up, That platform is full of shit with its squad lists every week because it can't get them right.

Drew was terrible. He ran hard and got plenty of the ball but did nothing with the ball. Arzani is surely a much better option.

Gauci clearly man of the match, had a brilliant game, some top quality saves.

Because Arzani and rhe whole team are a bunch of useless divers. 

Gauci was brilliant. 

Yeah didn't see the game was out then Paramount wouldn't load. Bit fotmob has gauci as mom 

We have a double header Western U v Sydney in ALM and Western U v Roar in ALW in Hobart today.

Pre- game publicity has been  almost non-existent in  mainstream media, despite a mate of mine , a long established football journo, has provided local tabloid with info weeks ago.

Most other publicity in the last few days  has been about  local player, Aimee Edwin, playing for Western U in ALW. There was another article yesterday about ALW with WU's American import, and finally 2 articles today on ALM.

Supposedly there will be a decent crowd, because junior players have been given free tickets - which will drag parents along. I'll be watching both games live as a neutral.

During the post match interview, Arzani said he was ill during the week so he hadn't trained at all this week. The only training session he had was on matchday. Understandable to bench him. 
That being said, he was still frustrating to watch when he did come on. The guy obviously has an abundance of raw talent, but his attitude is dogshit. He needs to stay on his feet and stop having dramatic sooks to the ref everytime a call doesn't go his way.
Also Adelaide didn't win that game, Gauci did. Epic performance from him. 

I know its a mute now because he copped 2 yellows to get sent off but I was impressed with the play by Jake Hollman.

Its rare you get an young playmaker playing in this league but even more rare that he plays from a deeper position with more responsibility that's required and he did well with he's decision making but also has a good passing game.

Thanks for info 👍 i watched game but turned it off straight after final whistle. Illness helps - but doesn’t justify - Arzani missing volley at goal in what was best goal scoring chance for Bulls in 2nd half. 

Yeah Gauci should be in the next Socceroos squad with Ryan and someone else. He is the future

Just as a matter of curiosity about today's match down there, would the stadium be conducive to a future A League team?

Next window should be Ryan, Maynard-Brewer and Gauci and the two youngsters should get at least 45 minutes each. Make no mistake an international match against good opposition is at a consistently higher level than either of the two youngsters have faced - but they both show enough to suggest they can handle it. Whether they make the Asian Cup next year or the 2026 WC depends on how they go and develop. There are a few other young keepers doing well also.

Yes.

But it would need a lot of work.

Since the last Stamoulis/Belteky A L bid, basketball has established a national team in Tas,  generating  a lot of support ATM, and AFL should be getting one - but with a furore over a stadium.

Football has missed the opportunity.

That was one boring half of football.

How slow is westerns build up play 

Great goal and post game interview 

Thank goodness for that goal. That match was awful.

Moon has done pretty well with roar 

Just noticed Roar's home ground is called Kayo Stadium.

Yep, Kayo only just recently got the naming rights in Dec. It's because the Dolphins join the NRL this year. 

Apparently Andy Harper says Yorke leaving Bulls to maybe coach Sydney FC

Ridiculous to send off Clisby after being kicked in the chest by that little wanker. 

X2

Go on Taggart! 

Clisby had to go off for retaliation just like Ikon did.

Not sure of serious, Adelaide are the dirtiest team in the league?
