Branko: Fozzie and Sir Les' favourite Coach

Football in the Capital 23 August @ 05:44 AM EST
Yellow cards: Ben KANTAROVSKI 5', Sasho PETROVSKI 23', Fabio VIGNAROLI 30', Sean ROONEY 45' +1, Ljubo MILICEVIC 45'
In the first half five Jets players were booked. Look at the type of players who were getting booked.

Who's next to leave the A-League?

Aussie Agents up to their neck in it?
You can almost smell the greed of the Aussie Agent.

Football in the Capital 23 June @ 06:17 PM EST
Nearpost football hosts Russ and Aaron are convinced the Jets will lose, nay get pumped tonight against the Pohang Denilson led Steelers in the Asian Champions League one-off last 16 game in Korea.
I'm not. I think they can win.
Either way watching Ben Kantarovski, Jason Hoffman, Tarek Elrich, Brodie Mooy, Mark Jesic, Adam D'Apuzzo, Kaz Patafta and Sean Rooney all young Aussies being tested on the continental stage is a joy. Click to continue reading...

The new teams: Gold Coast and North Queensland Fury, the bank and the paupers, top v bottom maybe. Click to continue reading...

Young Aussies shine across Asia

Football in the Capital 20 May @ 06:15 PM EST
Watching Ben Kantarovski last night was awesome as the young Jets player strode across Asia.
I could see the Green and Gold shirt on this young man for years to come. Another gem I'm sure.
But I also noted the impact of Jason Hoffman, Brodie Mooy, Adam D'Appuzzo, and in recent games Sean Rooney and Marko Jesic. Click to continue reading...

Rooney blasts home.

Football in the Capital 07 May @ 01:03 AM EST
On a night when the football fans were salivating at the thoughts of a Ronaldo/Rooney v Messi show down in the Champions League Final it was our own Rooney who excited me.
Chelsea gone, boring as they are, always have been in my view, is great news for football fans, the self-appointed elites at SBS, and followers of things other than the all dominating EPL. Click to continue reading...
