Post by ozzie owl »

Two great results for the Matildas and both games brilliantly supported.

The Matildas are spitting chips now that Sam Kerr didn't even make the FIFA Top Ten in the 'Player of the Year' awards, quite rightly I believe, she's the best thing to happen to the Women's game for a long time.

Marta has lost her shine now and is having to foul her opponent to win the ball and then falls over screaming if she gets tackled - unfortunately the Referees haven't realised that yet.

She gets caught with the ball regularly now, as she's not as fast as she was and lacks the ability to 'burn off' her opponents as easily.

FIFA got it right. Doing backflips doesnt mean you're a good footballer.
Skips getting carried away with meaningless friendlies.

Sure you did. So are they quite rightly spitting chips still, you think she is top 3?

And Marta didn't make top ten so I'm not sure how your rant about her relates to anything.

Come to think of it, your post was probably right on, considering. :lol:

Just out of interest, does anyone believe that Kerr should have made the top three?

I don't foe anyone. But your mental state is one that does arouse need for further studies into paranoid psychotics. Enough material there for an entire conference.

Works well until they are quoted , however it is like acoustic insulation , as it does absorb up to 75% of unwanted noise.

It also means you don't hear all those horrrible opinions of people you don't agree with. Poor little snowflake.
