Well done to Adrian & all the AU team with an even better performance than our previous win at home. :clap: AU on last night’s showing are playing some of the best futbal I have seen from them so credit must go to Adrian. We now need to just build on this momentum & carry the same confidence we are ...

Great to see Charlotte back in right back, Dylan in midfield, Mallory up forward and Isobel Hodgson back in defence. I feel Meleri Mullen should replace Georgia Campagnale in the midfiled I also would like to see Charlotte starting at right back bec although Emily tries hard she just hasn't shown m...

another shocking move placing Dylan Holmes centre back. Dylan is a defensive midfielder box to box player and has been an outstanding player in the WNPL. Oh dear, just watched some highlights (I still intend watching the full replay in the coming days) but what was Stenta thinking in playing Dylan ...

Congratulations Dylan on your appointment as Captain of Adelaide United. Well deserved and a great honour to lead AU.

Wholeheartedly agree with Sportsbird & definitely the right choice made by AU after a fine WNPL season for AC.
Well done Dylan.

Signed so far Charlie Grant Chelsie Dawber Dylan Holmes Emily Condon Emily Hodgson Georgia Campagnale Isabel Hodgson Laura Johns Matilda McNamara Sian McLaren Wonder if we will see any new faces? Metro always seem to have little to no representation in the Adelaide United team. Well I'm a big fan o...

Sometimes great teams lose. Doesn’t make them any less great. Bigger & better teams have disappointed on 'the big stage' & this AC side is not the first nor will they be the last. Only takes a few players to be down on their form in the match that counts the most & an upset can easily happen. Witho...

My money is on the street fighter metro. Big call but on what I've seen this season I just can't see this happening bec. AC are far too skilled all over the park. With no Chrissy Panagaris, Metro will not be troubling the City defence & so I remain confident AC will prove too classy. Btw congratula...

You mark Cote and Dawber closely and don't give them any space and you will find they will crumble under pressure. I'm not so confident this can be achieved bec the standard of defending I've seen in the WNPL this season especially when playing against Adel. City has been very poor. Dawber has impr...

Adelaide Utd Women (formerly 'Lady Reds') unfortunately now looking almost certain to be Wooden Spooners this season. Great display of fight & determination to beat the Newcastle Jets & in doing so helped avoid this season's wooden spoon (but only just). Nice to finish the season on a high ...

It’s so easy to hang the coach out to dry. Surely you can't be serious with a comment like this? The results this season of one win in eleven matches tells us it's been a disaster. :x Btw 0 - 4 at H-T (Jets vs Victory match) giving us a slender hope at this stage we still may have an opportunity to...

Hoping West Adelaide play her in a more forward role instead of LB where Laura still has been one of the few who can 'hold their head high' in what has been a very poor Adel. Utd season.

Agree, time has come for Ivan to step down & preferably the sooner the better (not at season’s end as is likely to be the case) With 4 matches still remaining it is time for a new person to take the helm with a fresh approach & with hopefully a view to taking this team on next season. Ivan has conti...

Unfortunately this season we do not have an abundance of capable strikers. As I previously mentioned & none more evident than yesterday with an absolute woeful performance from Dawber & a less than inspiring Grant on the wing. How Ivan waited to the 73rd min. to drag Dawber (who gave us NOTHING all...

After our 5th consecutive loss Ivan has 'hinted he will not be making wholesale changes to his starting line-up'. Without scrutinising most positions currently being occupied, Ivan must AT THE VERY LEAST consider shifting young Mary Fowler out on to the wing because currently her inexperience & lack...

People write them off because once again they are hopeless. I'll be very surprised if they manage to score more than 10 goals and avoid yet another wooden spoon. Pull the team and put the time and money into the Men's sides. Sorry JC but on what of seen this season they're far from hopeless & have ...

Fortunately only a bit of spam posted yesterday bec. 'Wooden Spooners' would have been a premature call at this stage of the season.

Unfortunately too many young inexperienced girls have been elevated into the starting line-up & although they have performed just ok, I now fear a loss vs Brisb (next game) will see AU disappointingly out of finals contention.

Sorry for late notice but Phoenix over 35's are looking for an opponent to play this Sunday
at SAWSA Park (cnr Greenhill & Peacock). Please note kick-off is likely to be midday.
Thanks

Any chance RS could possibly manage at least a half decent match against his former club which I'm yet to see or will the 'boo boys' mess with his head again? Personally I would not start him & would only play him off the bench vs LFC. Btw, the irony is we gifted them Milner on a freebie (has since ...

Warning signs that could cause AUFC some headaches moving forward.Thoughts? Firstly well done on a very good effort to match it with Sydney in Sydney for as long as we did given in the past we've been so poor. I still firmly believe Ivan must immediately address the right fullback position which wa...

I believe match tomorrow night to be shown live on FOX 505 (from 7:00pm ).

I'd be interest to read your comments about Holmes' second half. I think she dropped right out and was MIA. Holmes certainly needed to do more but I was more disappointed with the sub Hodgson (no.7) as she made almost no impact hence my earlier comments re: Ivan's subs. Meanwhile if Emily (the righ...

His visa recruits have been sensational. Local talent has also been good. I'm liking Emily Hodgson. Maturing into a disciplined defender. Willacy in goals is absolutely a master stroke. Only 2 subs used. Gutsy Ivan but I agree. A very entertaining game played at a very good standard considering the...

Agree with BTK's comments but still quite some way in the season to go after a very positive start thus far.

Btw can anybody confirm if Sam Kerr is likely to be available tomorrow night. If plays I would love to see Sam up against our improved defence (a real test)

Despite being the better team over the 90, Pool were lucky to escape with a point this morning. Keeps the title race interesting, might even bring United back into it :lol: NOC must've been watching a different red team (probably got confused with the Arsenal game) bec although Liverpool defended v...

Unfortunately as great a manager as Pep is even he is prone to making mistakes, namely why still persists on playing Sterling vs LFC & especially at Anfield where he is always dire. In fact I'm still yet to see Sterling put in a commendable effort vs LFC since he left them. The other costly mistake ...

Pleasing to see Chrissy Panagaris getting an opportunity & very deserving just needs to work harder on her fitness but will score goals.
