Just saw the replay of the penalty. That is absolutely disgusting. Wasn’t even going towards goal. If that stopped a goal bound shot you could almost see why it was given but even if it did hit him high on the arm it clearly wasn’t intentional and his arm was by his side. What is actually meant to do different?

Disgraceful decision, so much for the VAR eliminating the howlers.

Totally screwed over tonight.
We definitely have the side to challenge for the league.


Agree. Sitting in the 6 with key players like Gullum, Adlung and Absolonsen missing decent chunks. These 3 are as good inclusions that we have ever had and Absolonsen is up there with the best players in the league. Throw in returning locals from injury Adelaide look to be big challengers going forward.
Can you bring a man to his feet when defeat is on repeat?

Was a pretty forgettable game in general. Kitto and Garrucio dominated down the left, and Izzo made a couple of great saves

Most useless finishing team on the planet, need 30 attempts per goal.
Dominated possession and chances but gave up 2 soft goals. Defending is schoolboy stuff

United go 1-0 up in Perth early in the game (Fox Sport 1). Mileusnic involved in another goal, assisting Adlung - Nikola has a lot to work on in his game but he's certainly contributed to a lot of goals this season.

Blatant red card, studs up, both feet in the air.
Not the first time this season the ref has taken the soft option - weak as piss.

Add garrucio and izzo into that too

Have to say our second stringers have been hugely impressive this year, way better than what I would have thought
