Edit: just noticed that this has been posted already in the four blind mice thread.

From the article -

 

"Match officials have received more criticism this year than any other in the history of the A-League, for getting decisions wrong, missing things, over-reacting and sometimes not acting strongly enough."

 

Is that because this season they are lacking vision, or because they have Vi$ion?!? :unknw:

Love how he pretty much always makes a point to point to the guy who assists him for the goals. Noticeably did that with Nico for the first one and maybe even Antonis, can't remember.

While I was watching the game with my mate, I mentioned to him "what the hell would we have done without Santa over last year or two". The guy just keeps scoring, and a lot of good quality goals as well. I love the look in his eyes after he scores. It pumps me up knowing Santa is on the field and looking dangerous :)

Set up the one for Nico as well when he could have been more selfish and gone for goal.

We need a time machine.

 

Hope he retires here. Even at 34 he's one of the leagues most potent threats.

 

His goal to minutes ratio must be pretty damn impressive.
