    Very scrappy game. The wind must be howling judging on the skill level. Aliir has dropped a few marks but at least he is getting to the ball. Newman really the only player in contention for senior promotion atm.

    The commentary is pretty funny, and even more scrappy than the play. If they laud a particular player, you can be sure it's a free kick against that player. Half the names called are wrong. Newman was given a lot of credit for O'Riordan plays and they called Brown for both the real Brown as well as Harry Marsh. The one that made me laugh the most was a call about Aliir making a nice grab of a loose ball on the ground, which went something like beautiful pick up off the carpet, using his height to great advantage.

    Newman has been one of the few very solid players. I also thought O'Riordan played well. The goal kicking has been dreadful.

    Agree. Commentary is horrible. They have no idea...

    2 really nice goals from Amartey, second one in particular was a cracker.

    I should say, I think it's just the one of the two that's clueless. The one that seems to raise his voice from out of nowhere when it's usually a behind scored...and like to call grass "carpet".

    I guess I'd rather have the stream and put up with them than not.

    Good comeback.

    Hopefully just managed. Although he was called earlier in the qtr picking it up off the carpet! I guess he and Amerty look similar! Lol.
