[Dakink]

Mmmm - another low scorer.

We need some attackers to stand up..

Well it is going to be tough for QLD to turn it around and move up the ladder if they don't score goals.

pfft a league aint all that great.

As expected teams have organised defencsive structures before attacking - it is now up to the managers to break down those defensive structures with intelligent attack rather thatn the long ball crap we are seeing at the moment.

Results

QLD 1 Central Coast 1 - I just missed out on this one!! (Q2 CC1)

Newcastle 1 Perth 5 - Who would have picked this at home?? Newie have looked OK (N1 P1)

Sydney 2 Adelaide 1 - Bingo I got this one right! (S2 A1)

Melbourne 2 NZ 0 - I got the result and 1 goal of the margin (M3 NZ0)

That leaves the ladder as;

Team P W D L F A GD Pts
1. Adelaide United FC 7 4 2 1 8 5 3 14
2. Sydney FC 7 4 1 2 14 10 4 13
3. Melbourne Victory FC 7 3 3 1 10 6 4 12
4. Perth Glory FC 7 3 1 3 12 9 3 10
5. Queensland Roar FC 7 2 3 2 7 7 0 9
6. Central Coast Mariners FC 7 2 3 2 8 9 -1 9
7. Newcastle Jets FC 7 2 1 4 8 10 -2 7
8. New Zealand Knights FC 7 1 0 6 4 15 -11 3

I think the top 4 as you see it will remain that barring major injuries. The only team I can really see breaking in is the Central Coast. QLD is an outside chance but need to work out there attack. They dont really seem to be playing to a plan.

pfft a league aint all that great.

Why? Just cause it's soccer? To me it's a damn sight more interesting than men in white continuously hitting a ball with a stick.

[Hindy_Magic]

yeah soccer has more registered players in syndey then rugby league does it may be aussie soccer but it is still medioacre.

If the soccer boy's ever get it right with their comp, and their start has been exceptional, look out other sport codes. The NRL needs to get into the schools backyard and keep the kids coming through... The AFL do it and so does Soccer & Rugby.

Alas, hindy_magic isn't a follower of the beautiful game. Oh well, his loss.

Soccer and AFL does - Have to disagree with Rugby though. About the only schoools with solid rugby are Old boy network private schools.
