HAHAHAHAHAH VICTORY COP TWO IN STOPPAGE TIME AND LOSE TO WESTERN. 

[102megan]

Western United's come backs have been so entertaining to watch as a neutral! 

 

Just as long as its not against us.

Would have preferred a draw in this game.

I am seriously beginning to hate Adelaide 

[Davo]

My app says all these matches on now are round 13. Is there a thread or is that why we’re talking about them here?

You are correct

Too many rounds mixed at the moment

There are matches being played these couple of weeks from 2 or 3 different rounds. 

I think Paul has also created another thread but comments are landing here instead.

I have just created the thread for Round 13

[Paul01]

Popovic at this game to look at?

I reckon Sainsbury, not Matthews. Maybe the Smurf GK

[Paul01]

So this Round continues

Bullsh1tters lose to Auckland 

Lolley puts the Smurfs up by 1

Sydney cheating surely winning games at home isn't allowed

They used reverse psychology by not wearing their home jersey

Decent crowd for the F3 derby.

Amazing what happens when you play it on a Saturday night instead of wasting it in Unite Round.

Agreed on both counts. A really good crowd and a decent atmosphere, and the fact they.put the earlier one on in Unite Round was stupid in the extreme. The obvious agenda of ensuring Unite Roynd wasn't a dud numbers wise.

[nmh94]

A pretty awesome derby tonight tbh.

Plus keeping up the offer to Jets season ticket holders getting free entry

Mariners get the same offer at Hunter stadium 

[Sime11]

Great finish to that game - also helps us that jets snagged a point off CCM

[Davo]

Keeps CCM behind having played one more game than us.

Perth beating Victory would be nice, although that might be asking a bit much of Perth.

[mack]

Perth game is being played under experimental rules where RCs & YC's don't exist.

Good to see stands with some people in them this weekend, the league desperately needs more of that.

Commentator: Arzani has the ball on a string there… and he’s lost it.

This ball on a string what does it actually mean? I think of a cat with a ball on a string looking confused when it keeps coming back
