We’re six weeks through on this wonderful trip
United sit bottom with the Roar at the tip
City has peppered but are yet to show
What their potential can bring, however they continue to grow
The Phoenix showed determination in their win over Adelaide
They went down a goal early before starting their invade
Bonevacia scored a double while Krishna scored one
And then Ridenton made it four boy did he have some fun
The Phoenix fans rejoiced as the full time whistle blew
There were smiles and solidarity, a belief this club can stay too
For Adelaide hope is fading and this team now looks dejected
The buildup play is unstable and their defence disconnected
Fast forward to Saturday where the Big Blue was in full swing
The Sky Blues were impressive early before the Victory finished with a ching
Besart Berisha was a constant threat and a danger the defence perceived
But despite their efforts to contain, the Albanian still deceived
His second goal at the death was a warning sign for the rest
That despite sitting third Melbourne is still the best
Muscat praised the boys for continuing with their aim
Before surprisingly actually applauding the referee’s game
On Friday night the Wanderers continued along with ease
They dispatched a hapless Newcastle with graciousness, a tease
It took the boys in Red and Black to a winning streak of three
And in terms of the A-League form guide, the Wanderers now sit top of the tree
Brisbane showed good signs while the Glory failed to finish
And the question on everyone’s lips; Will Newcastle and the Mariners push on or now diminish?
The action in Round Six was sensational and great
Continuing the brilliant football we have seen so far to date
We eagerly anticipate the next dose of football heaven
Until then Australia must sit back and await match day seven.
