Adelaide United, Newcastle Jets and Melbourne Heart were the big winners on the weekend.
A classic John Aloisi miss, was matched by a classic Aloisi goal in the Heart Phoenix match.
Good football for the watching TV viewers inspired by the very tall Gerard Sibon, Rugter Worm and
Josip Skoko.
So many highlights from the A-League this weekend; here's a few for those without Fox and/or stuck
in the AFL/NRL/Masterchef seasons.
Marcos Flores, Adelaide United, his wonder goal was only outdone by Aussie Matthew Leckie's header
and Cassio's defensive mistakes in the same game. So much football down at Hindmarsh and the Jets
must be the best football team in the World to be second bottom of their league.
Today's Courier Mail:
'Since his arrival in Adelaide, Dutchman Rini Coolen has replaced Aurelio Vidmar as coach, with
van Dijk admitting he prefers Coolen's "easy-going" nature to Postecoglou's "police officer"
attitude.' ....
"Rini first lets us try to work things out.
With all the Football shows in Australia concentrating on the off-field antics this week it's nice
to see the football take centre stage again.
Two to watch:
Newcastle Jets v Perth; I'm adoring Robbie at the moment so nice to see how the Glory respond to
the Jets woes.
And Brisbane v Adelaide United: League leaders can they be tamed?
Interestingly Ben Buckley is saying that Newcastle needs to show it wants an A-League team, and yet
its crowd was relatively respectful at 6,977.
Draws to:
Melbourne Victory 0 v Wellington 0 (11,513 - how long ago since Victory played to only 11,000?)
North Queensland 0 v Melbourne 0 (4,922 - Fury dominated but couldn't score)
Brisbane 1 v Adelaide 1 (7,080)
Gold Coast 0 v Central Coast 0 (2,037 check this out FFA are promoting this as a record!
A-League at it's best. Tonight.
Great stadium, great home support. Pacy and tricky players. Australias' top goal scorer on
fire.
It's Adelaide United v Perth Glory. It's going to be rough and tough Jacob Burns will "get stuck
in" early and it will be football but not as we know it.
Adelaide United have Matthew Leckie. He's fast. And I bet he doesn't cost half as much as the
retirees down at Melbourne Heart!
Brisbane Roar have Matty McKay and Massimo Murdocho in the midfield they are fast, over and over
again and they can wear teams down.
Melbourne Victory won two Championships using the pace of Archie Thompson.
