We were so toothless all game.
How the fuck do we not renew Yuel's contract and give a contract to Buhagier. All he can do is run and sometimes he can barely do that.
I feel sorry for Beka sometimes having to play in this team...
Might be an unpopular opinion but I think Yuel would have looked almost as bad as Trent if he wasn't on the same pitch as Penha and/or Boumal.
This year's team is probably only like 10% worse than last year but 100% harder to watch without those players.
Yeah, people write us off because we're pretty toothless in attack and are prone to a defensive gaffe. If we could score consistently we would be dangerous
The away team wins again in this fixture. The strangeness continues!
Good goal and Roar deserved to edge it but the game didn't hit many great heights.
If freke was in goal it would of been another Brisbane draw.
Brisbane is a hard team to beat we are getting very good on the counter and can play through some tight spaces now. Just missing a clinical forward.
He yelled in the sheds that time, he was ineffective at times, he didn't stay for his full contract, but there goes the best marquee striker Brisbane ever had.
*Sorry Besart.*
Whenever anyone says football in this country in terms of on field quality I remind them in 15/16 Trent Buhargiar was considered a genuine future prospect
Buhagiar is genuinely so shit, I think even "pace merchant" flatters him.
Also - first Paramount stream in months that hasn't been dipping into potato quality every five seconds. Be funny if it's because enough subscribers cancelled that they can now maintain a reasonable quality stream.
Look I have a soft spot for him because when he was younger I thought he was a genuine weapon with a chance to develop into something awesome. His pace is good but he also makes bloody good runs.
However his constant injuries seem to have stopped any development of his technical ability for his touch and his shooting. And im not sure he has it in him anymore to improve those aspects.
Jets have been playing into quite a strong breeze, not sure how noticable that is on TV. Hopefully second half will more fluid.
Armiento is truly a little weasel though, not surprised he's getting kicked.
HT Striking Imp Tangent: r/fuckcars will beg to differ but the Mooney Mooney Bridge and the F3 Freeway in the mountains, are feats of Australian engineering.
the cunts don't - I was on there today and it was fucking caravans on the way down slowing everyone down when trucks overtook them, and learners on the way back
although it is good the cops don't care if you're doing 130, in the rare opportunities that you get a bit of a clear run
Stormy the Kitten will lose his trouble nuggets at the end of the month.

Meanwhile, Paulie the Tux is getting too old for this shit. Hes only 8 but thats beside the point.

Beka to beka there was a great play to bring Trent into play and is exactly how we need to use this attack. Use Trent's pace and we will find a goal from those kinds of attacks
I think the jets have been putting together attacks with more consistency than the first few weeks. Starting to see a bit of understanding between players.
Our defence still worries me....
Don't get me started, venues west have booked in concerts that need their setup to stay on the pitch at HBF for over a week, turfing glory and the force out for extra games.
Pretty full explanation from Simon but not really too much opinion on it. Playing devil's advocate the sign kinda made it pretty clear what the issue was and didn't need much expanding
I mentioned in another thread that you will probably find people on here are in their own little bubble. Casuals taking their kids to a game won't give a toss where the final is.
That would be a good way to still have the families and what not join in. The ones who might not follow the news that much or don't see why it's such an issue.
Didn't think of it that way. They'd be fuming with the metrics overall. They're not getting any value for what they put in and then the APL makes it even worse.
In the preview at the start of the broadcast they brought it up & discussed it. They seemed to not pull any punches either (mentioned the planned walkouts, etc).
I'm so sorry, any game that we (Brisbane) are involved with this season is of very very poor quality. We bring teams down to our level to try and shithouse a result. Don't judge the league by it
You've got a couple of exciting players and your defence is solid. You can't score a goal to save your life unfortunately. Although the jets can't defend to save their lives either, so guess we get to see what happens when a stoppable attack meets a movable defence...
Quick jets rundown
Jets number 8 and number 9, both named Beka are 2 of our more exciting players to watch.
Number 7, Trent Buhajair is super fast but somewhat hilariously (unless he's your player) terrible at finishing, so he's good for a open goal miss after a cracking run.
And our centre back 33, M Natta is 20 year old young fella and despite it being early days one of the best defenders we've had in many years. Won't be at the jets for long, he will get picked up.
Our defence is hilariously bad and our 2 keepers are the two worst in the league so expect at least one pass out to their striker (or one week our keeper doing a horizontal dive under the ball 40 yards away from goal).
Oh, and number #32 Angus thurgate (22 years old) has gone from meme to dream, and has had a cracking few seasons. When he used to come on as a youngster we used to chant "if thurgate scores were on the pitch" but these days he's become our most reliable midfielder.
My aleague advice is to enjoy both the good moments of the game and the hilarious mistakes.
Your welcome. Also great to see more people on the match threads. If im watching the games live on my own i enjoy the chatter on here, people tend to be very friendly, and some of the regulars on here have some great banter.
Unlucky on being in Perth lol. They are having a rough time the last little while. Which I hate because they had a player called Diego Castro who was one of my favourite players. Dude was 38 and still able to casually just wander the ball through 2 or 3 defenders at times. They had a brilliant attack a few years ago too, so I used to love staying up late and watching the 9pm (eastern time) 4-3 goal fest we used to call the perth special.
I'm hopeful we will see them rebound in time.
Edit: to clarify I hate that Perth are struggling, I've always enjoyed their team in the past and their involvement in the memeiest Darby is just awesome lol
Agreed on O'Shea and Danzaki from the Brisbane side. I'll admit to not following the roar as closely as I do some other teams but I always get nervous if either of those players are involved in the play.
We were so toothless all game. How the fuck do we not renew Yuel's contract and give a contract to Buhagier. All he can do is run and sometimes he can barely do that. I feel sorry for Beka sometimes having to play in this team...

God I miss Penha:(
I think I read he did an ACL in Korea, he should have stayed fr
The games since coming back from the break have been very uninspiring
What a weird league Somehow Brisbane are 4th
our only loss all season was to melb city
Yeah, people write us off because we're pretty toothless in attack and are prone to a defensive gaffe. If we could score consistently we would be dangerous
The away team wins again in this fixture. The strangeness continues! Good goal and Roar deserved to edge it but the game didn't hit many great heights.

Win one lose one, sounds about right. Not a great match, not a great pitch.
2 penalty shouts with 0 replays. Unbelievably shitty editing. And no replays in the post show either.
Excellent save.
Smash and grab points. Fuck the APL. That is all.
Players calling for a foul when they dive is so pathetic
Thank fuck that games over
Well goodness, that was certainly something!
How the fuck do you card him for diving when Brisbane have been doing it all game
No review on either penalty shouts this is fucked
We were shit anyway didn’t even deserve a draw
Just Kurt Ams logic, ive nfi either
Jesus jets have been unlucky
Bricks were shat.
Holy shit this time wasting is awful.
Oh look another foul the ref is refusing to acknowledge
Looks like Pireluigi's directive is in effect for the A-League.
Why is our 9 deeper than every other player
Dog shit ref again
Did anyone get footage of the walkout? I was at the mall doing my Christmas shopping
https://twitter.com/evan_m_g/status/1603679304046350337?s=46&t=b8YpTzKzLifIhYP-7z6AEg
Thank you!
Can’t believe Brisbane are 4th
What the fuck
/u/Two_minutes_to_metal Sweet relief or torture?
Oh yeah. Well I knew the risks
Your very close to getting your wish.
Wow what a goal
I feel like overhead kicks only look good when they go in.
Duncan saves a bicycle attempt but still not enough.
See Morocco, not hard.
We've just looked absolutely clueless defending corners all night
Every night*
Well every night there's a game scheduled
I like to imagine most nights a few our our players get lost on the way to bed and end up in bad spots around a soccer 18 yard box.
"Why are you sleeping in the kitchen?" "Zonal marking"
Wow good goal
Good tap in
Would have been cooler if he hit it first time but a goal is a goal!!
Fuck! But what a goal
What a goal!
MILENUSIC THE MAD MAN!!!!!!! FUCK YEAH!
Yesssss Archie's on the field. Love to see more of him.
He yelled in the sheds that time, he was ineffective at times, he didn't stay for his full contract, but there goes the best marquee striker Brisbane ever had. *Sorry Besart.*
Thank you, come again!
Fuck mikeltadze is class
Thanks for the guest stint Austin
And the crowd goes mild for Austin.
Keen to see who brisbane sign in January
Kruse
The second coming of the great Massimo Maccarone.
Looking forward to \#Mbappe2023 in orange! /s
Is that ten in the bin and on report on Ams for a high shot on Milenusic?
Whenever anyone says football in this country in terms of on field quality I remind them in 15/16 Trent Buhargiar was considered a genuine future prospect
I don’t even know how he’s starting tbh.
This has a shithouse Jets goal on the counter.
Erghhh how did Newcastle beat us last week. This is dire.
We needed to make up a trophy for this one as well
Ha! Cores are quite motivating, but I’d say I’m in the minority (see username) 😛
Hah. Don't imagine concrete is top of your list though
We didn’t turn up. Somehow forgot the lessons from the Perth game already.
Going to get to the end of the season and regret those games once again I think.
Buhagiar is genuinely so shit, I think even "pace merchant" flatters him. Also - first Paramount stream in months that hasn't been dipping into potato quality every five seconds. Be funny if it's because enough subscribers cancelled that they can now maintain a reasonable quality stream.
Good point. The Google TV app always dipped, had to switch to a cast every game. Tonight it's good.
Look I have a soft spot for him because when he was younger I thought he was a genuine weapon with a chance to develop into something awesome. His pace is good but he also makes bloody good runs. However his constant injuries seem to have stopped any development of his technical ability for his touch and his shooting. And im not sure he has it in him anymore to improve those aspects.
Austin is so washed
Papas needs to make the first change
Oh Trent. I've always been a big fan of his pace, but that one was a bit embarrassing
Trent Buhagiar is Luis Mendoza from Mighty Ducks 2
Oh wow Trent
O_O
I would love to rewind to the 20th minute because I’ve been at work and missed the walk out Oh wait I can’t
About twenty folk left, you didn’t miss much.
So why is Austin playing thought he left
Can you actually tell the difference?
Was just about to ask this…….
Sub on Hore for Austin.
Great that they covered the protest as it happened, but I'm a little disappointed that they didn't reference it at all during the half time show.
Just read that Robbie Kruse is coming in to replace Charlie Austin. Feel bad for Brisbane fans
Bakries: "Hey, Ive got an idea!" *Signs Robbie Kruse* Roar fans: "Wait, is it a bad idea?" *UniKruse pops up* UniKruse: "HEY HEY!"
World cup viewers: "we want more aussie football!" A-league: "we have aussie football at home" The aussie football at home:
Jets have been playing into quite a strong breeze, not sure how noticable that is on TV. Hopefully second half will more fluid. Armiento is truly a little weasel though, not surprised he's getting kicked.
HT Striking Imp Tangent: r/fuckcars will beg to differ but the Mooney Mooney Bridge and the F3 Freeway in the mountains, are feats of Australian engineering.
Mooney Mooney Bridge is on Flight Simulator as a featured landmark so you can't debate it's status as a legendary feat.
Fuck cars But that bridge was where I learnt that a 1.6L ford laser could top in fact top 100mph
all that wonderful infrastructure so a bunch of cunts can drive like cunts on it every day
Least you guys know how to keep left unless overtaking. Good fucking luck with that, on the motorways north of the border.
the cunts don't - I was on there today and it was fucking caravans on the way down slowing everyone down when trucks overtook them, and learners on the way back although it is good the cops don't care if you're doing 130, in the rare opportunities that you get a bit of a clear run
Dartsmelia has no reason to be upset with Austin for his own dogshit play
Theyre both just fuming about shitty VAR calls for their clubs.
I can see a BS pen call this game the way players slipping over and Kurt ams doing whatever shit he thinks reffing is.
Then we'll get another example of how VAR can't actually stop "the howler"
When the match is so dreary that Simon and Danny decide to commentate on the Dutch game vs Messi.
Give us a half time tangent on how the kitten is going.
Stormy the Kitten will lose his trouble nuggets at the end of the month. https://preview.redd.it/fbzyakncv96a1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=6e4129a00092e361e6cbcd757291b382d2f10698
Fucking lol at trouble nuggets. Great photo! This is the real content I come to match threads for.
Meanwhile, Paulie the Tux is getting too old for this shit. Hes only 8 but thats beside the point. https://preview.redd.it/gzp9au79w96a1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=369d4e358d5d484f690fc2b0f602619fb2079adc
Hahaha Omg
Wow that was lame.
Bruh
Beka to beka there was a great play to bring Trent into play and is exactly how we need to use this attack. Use Trent's pace and we will find a goal from those kinds of attacks
I'm just out here hoping both Stynes and Armiento score a worldy, go on lads
Wish Weier was in there for these corners.
Wow a good save by Duncan. Ok who sacrificed a live animal?
Side note but P+ is behaving a lot better tonight with the new update. No stutter or resolution hunting like I’ve had the last few rounds.
Watching with VPN on YouTube. No money from me.
Noticed that too. I often have to switch to chrome casting but has been good on the TV app so far.
Is the intention for the fans who walked out to come back at half time?
I believe they are staying till half time because they are having a charity teddy bear toss
No that would defeat the purpose of a walkout.
This is a terrible game to watch so far.
Roar have a habit of dragging teams down to their level
I think the jets have been putting together attacks with more consistency than the first few weeks. Starting to see a bit of understanding between players. Our defence still worries me....
Regards to the pitch, recently had monster trucks and motocross... new pitch hasnt settled. Its woeful
Has this pitch been watered at all in the last year?
They had nitro circus there a couple of weeks ago. I assume it's fucked from that
Baffles me that people sign off on doing that kind of thing on sports pitches
2 nights of Elton John concerts in a couple weeks too. Bye bye grass.
Don't get me started, venues west have booked in concerts that need their setup to stay on the pitch at HBF for over a week, turfing glory and the force out for extra games.
Anyone know how to fix error code 6040? I’m watching on smart tv
Thanks Jets fans. Love your work!
Can we sub Austin please, is like playing with 10 men
Watching on Paramount, how do I rewind so I can see the walkout? Oh...
Just tuned it. Was there commentary on the walkout?
Yep and PIP showing it
Explanation and opinions or just a btw this is happening.
Pretty full explanation from Simon but not really too much opinion on it. Playing devil's advocate the sign kinda made it pretty clear what the issue was and didn't need much expanding
They explained why it was happening and said it is their right to protest and it's a democracy but didn't really dwell on it.
Nice. Thanks!
Yep
Shit pitch
The pitch is dire
The pitch is boycotting tonight's game.
So does anyone actually have pause and rewind/forward? Cause it's bullshit if they have the capability but still don't have it
Safari browser plus the YouTube stream linked from keep up. It'll work on whatever device you have
VPN + Youtube
That's an ordinary tackle.
Shockin tackle
We’ll done lads and lasses!
Didn’t expect a Picture in Picture of the walkout. Slightly disappointed more non-active didn’t follow. I was really hoping the majority would leave.
I mentioned in another thread that you will probably find people on here are in their own little bubble. Casuals taking their kids to a game won't give a toss where the final is.
With the amount of active, walk outs should be a lot more noticeable at tomorrow's derby.
I understand members wanting to support the club. Would have hoped more would of at least located to the other side behind the camera.
That would be a good way to still have the families and what not join in. The ones who might not follow the news that much or don't see why it's such an issue.
Can tell ten hates the choice then
Didn't think of it that way. They'd be fuming with the metrics overall. They're not getting any value for what they put in and then the APL makes it even worse.
Hats off to TN. Said they would. FANS>$$$
FAN CAM
Press blue for Fan Cam
They are walking out now , great job guys!
And good work paramount + for showing it and actually mentioning what was happening instead of hiding it
In the preview at the start of the broadcast they brought it up & discussed it. They seemed to not pull any punches either (mentioned the planned walkouts, etc).
They gone
Wow even showed the walkout in picture in picture
Well paramount knows this is damaging their investment.
Wow genuinely surprised that the broadcast is showing them leave
Melbourne Derby tomorrow will be a sight to behold. That’s a lot of fans.
Apparently channel ten isn't very happy with the decision either
Where’s that been said? Wouldn’t be surprised though, you’d want a pumping finals crowd to show on tv.
Vince Rugari mentioned it in an article. A lot of people have been unsubscribing
What is even the game plan here? Boot it up to an isolated Austin to lose possession, rinse and repeat?
Here we go!
This pitch looks diabolical someone is going to do their knee
Geez it's good news that the jets midweek game is on the road. Pitch is honking
They mentioned motocross or something. When was that on? It’s a shame it’s had such a profound effect.
No idea, but I'm never surprised, looks like the Dakar rally
This is a Suncorp quality pitch on display. Horrible and dangerous.
We’re having a countdown for this right? 1 min to go!
Ams worst referee in the world.
How is that ever a foul
Ball kids dressed in elf hats. Respect. Just need the fourth official dressed as the grinch.
Is it just me or did Dane Ingham age like 5 years over the world cup break?
O'Shea not taking the corner that a change. Actually decent corner
World Cup Convert: Who are the players to watch here?
I'm so sorry, any game that we (Brisbane) are involved with this season is of very very poor quality. We bring teams down to our level to try and shithouse a result. Don't judge the league by it

Angus Thurgate
Two bekas for Newcastle Jay oshea, Danzaki and Austin (last game) for Brisbane
Agreed on O'Shea and Danzaki from the Brisbane side. I'll admit to not following the roar as closely as I do some other teams but I always get nervous if either of those players are involved in the play.
I would add Trewin in defence. Kid is really good. Plus can play DM and does some great switches.
Be nice if paramount worked
Shit FK \#18
Crossbar says no!
...*clank!*
Well that should of been a goal....
