Jeffers looks the part and Kantarovski was very instrumental in controlling the midfield, especially in the second half. Elrich is once again hitting form with some blistering runs down the right hand side and pinpoint crosses. Jesic will hopefully become more clinical, because he could have quite easily bagged a hat rick. Newcastle outclasses Phoenix, although as a Jets fan I may be bias! Hopefully Newcastle continue the rise up the table. The return of a Griffiths could aid this considerably, same it isn't Joel though, who is heading to Wellington, rumour has it.<br /><br />I was shocked to hear about the promising young striker Kerem Bulut's gang involvement. A real shame as he looks to be a very talented player. Seems stupid to throw it all away....Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
