What a round of A–League football with no less than 23 goals scored in 5 games, a huge plus for the neutral and a huge minus to the countries defences.
All except Adelaide who were the only side to maintain a clean sheet. But enough of the boring defensive stuff and more on the ones who put bums on seats – the entertainers, the goal scorers.
Young guns Thomas Rogic and Marcos Rojas were on fire. It was a delight to watch football this weekend, that is unless you are a Sydney FC fan. Watching re-runs of Everybody Loves Raymond would have been more entertaining.
5. The Mariners beating Sydney 7-2. Good enough to get in here twice
6. Crowd behavior. We’re giving the mainstream media no choice but to report on the positives.
What went over the Crossbar (Dislikes)
1. Sydney. Not even Steven King could have written a horror story like that.
4. Del Piero not playing. Surely he was good for six goals on Saturday night.
Next week’s prediction:
2. We won’t see 23 goals.
2. Del Piero to score in open play. DIDN’T PLAY, NOT MY FAULT.
3. Fox Sports to come up with some ‘big blue’ style name for the Wanderers vs Heart but in red. We’ll get in first and call it the Red Stripe Stoush. DIDN’T HEAR ANYTHING BUT MAYBE WE SCARED THEM.
