Unbelievable that the Victory are in front at half time. Have been completely outplayed but we'll take it!

That was a disgraceful offside lol

It must be said, the standard of officiating in this league is nothing short of a disgrace. This was confirmed when the linesman put his flag up for offside from a throw-in. Not to mention that Thompson was at least 5 metres onside when he scored his second.

Astonishingly bad decision. I always stick up for linos, because it is very hard to watch a ball player, a runner and several defenders moving the other way all at the same time, BUT there is no excuse for getting that wrong.
Carlos was plain flipping lazy for Wellington's goal!
Anyway, well done Archie and the defence.
It's been like that for 7 years so nothing new there.
Anyway a good win away and the past 3 weeks can be put behind the Victory now we've jumped into the top 4.

He wouldn't have been able to stop the shot if he were Usain Bolt however...the problem was that we had three players go up for the defensive header, and we didn't win it. The midget ****wit of a defensive midfielder should have been down to mop it up, and not trying to outjump Adrian Leijer.
The linesman pretty much shat himself when all the Phoenix players put their hands up for offside and raised the flag. Poor decision.

That and whoever was on the post took off away from goal after the header...not sure where he was off to, but maybe defending until the ball was cleared might have helped.
Nonetheless should have been 3-1, that was probably the worst decision I've ever seen against archie..
Worst offside decision I've ever seen.
Archie had 10+ called incorrectly against him 2 seasons ago - looks like nothing's changed.
Also thought we were the better side after being dominated for the first 30 minutes. Commentary seemed to be influenced more by the yellow fever than what was actually happening on the pitch.
Anyway, great to finally win. Next week will be huge.

How about the 'Yellow Fever' calling an 18 year old Judas,
Felt sorry for rojas today everytime he got the ball he got booed and as a result instead of running at the defenders he put in a cross.
Also you cant blame the kid in going to the biggest club in the a league where his going to get recognised more and will be under the guidance of kewell who would know whats best.

Not sure if that was a red card against Wellington btw
The penalty was S-O-F-T

Couldn't disagree more.
Clear cut pen and red. Unbelievably clumsy.
If you want to see a soft one, watch Liverpool-WBA.

The same linesman also flagged Hernandez offside after a quick throw to him.......

Typical Wellington. Should have been up by 5 or 6 goals but end out 2-0 down, a man short and the game effectively over.

What the hell is he still doing at the club let alone starting matches. Was terrible, again.
Who does he have photos of?

They paid for his trial at the club and then he packs his bags and goes to Victory. I would be calling him worse than Judas if I was a Nix fan.
