i like it as well. would've been perfect if it was a flexfit hat. snap backs ain't my 1st choice. i don't know where i put the blue/blue camo hat they gave out last time.

Does anyone actually think Perrinelle has earned all three penalties he's conceded this year? I thought the first two were complete bullshit, made even worse by the fact that they were given at RBA.

The first two were challenges he won in 50/50 gambles. The one v Toronto was in a situation where the attacker was about to leave the penalty area, so just a silly risky tackle. So while they were bad calls, especially with the benefit of replays, and he did win the challenges, they were also bad decisions by DP. As someone said in an earlier thread, he's lost a step this year, and he had no steps to begin with. And that's been exacerbated by poor decisions as well.

The third one this weekend was an obvious one AND it was a poor decision to go to ground. Judging by the replays, he could have stayed on his feet and been in a good position to neutralize the danger.

Kemar was a man possessed.  We needed SOMEONE to step up so this homestand wouldn't be a total waste, Kemar did it and came through.  4 points out of 9 isn't exactly what we had in mind with this three game stretch, but he saved us from total disaster.  

 

We need a healthy, in-form Collin back in the worst way.

Perry is done... how he still sees playing time is insane. At least let murillo play cb or ndam.

I was surprised that we still prefer Zizzo over Ndam.  He must be more of a project than expected.

Can someone explain what Veron has done since he's come on?

It really is inexplicable how little he gets done when given the opportunity.     Skill and effort is there, but either he's head-down and doesn't see the play,  heads up and doesn't see the play, or is flopping around for a penalty.

He comes on this game with fresh legs in the 70th minute with clear instructions to stay high and hit on the counter. If there is one scenario in which he SHOULD succeed, its this one. There's no thought involved, just use pure foot speed to create some havoc. And yet his only contributions to the game end up being two back passes and losing possession on three of the four dribbles he attempted.
