Central Coast Mariners 0, Newcastle Jets 1

So Mark Bridge’s glittering goal has made the Newcastle Jets Australia’s A-League champions. A phenomenal goal, and in my opinion the Jets had the edge on the Mariners throughout the game.
But that last corner will hurt Mariners fans for a long time. Video replays show it as clear as […]

Poll: Should the Grand Final be played in Sydney?

January 23rd, 2008 · 5 Comments

The Newcastle Jets are pissed.
They’ve finished the A-League season in excellent fashion, landing a spot in the top two - and guaranteeing a double shot at reaching the Grand Final.
But they won’t get the Grand Final at home, whether they win against the Central Coast Mariners or not. The FFA has decided that neither Central […]

Preview: Melbourne Victory vs. Newcastle Jets

The Newcastle Jets are the only team to beat the Melbourne Victory at home this season. They pulled off that victory in a round 10 encounter that was dramatic for all the wrong reasons: a send-off, a penalty not given, and a verbal assault on Joel Griffiths.
Melbourne fans came away from that game feeling hard-done […]

November 29th, 2007 · No Comments

Rd 10. Melbourne v Newcastle : 0-2

October 26th, 2007 · 7 Comments

A disappointing night, no doubt about that. Melbourne got off to a cracking start, with some dangerous attacking play that looked to really be setting us up for a good night. Unfortunately, it just didn’t last. Newcastle’s first goal from the free kick was made possible after Adam Griffiths pushed Allsopp to the ground to […]

October 26th, 2007 · 2 Comments

There is absolutely nothing separating the Melbourne Victory and Newcastle Jets as they meet tonight for their second clash of the season. Both teams are sitting on 14 points (a tantalising 3 behind first placed Central Coast Mariners) and both have won 3, lost 1 and drawn 5.
When they met in Round 5, Melbourne went […]
