Keith and I wish to express our thanks for the many kind thoughts and congratulations received yesterday. A great day topped off by an equalizing goal. Again our thanks
Knights will not finish off against the better teams without a striker this is the only thing they are missing. With 2 trips to Valley RD to come the title is DPORT's to lose
Watched the Riverside v City live stream. City play some good possession football and should have won by more. Seem to be improving eqch week. Riverside aewful - just rely on a long hoof out of defence and play uninspiring football. They cant put 3 passes together. New town eagles play a much better brand of football
Knights had plenty of opportunities to score the 2nd goal. The problem is leadership, off field but mainly within the team.
They have an abundance of talent but miss out when it comes to recognizing what needs to be done at certain times of the match. They sat way too deep rather than pressing higher up. If they had leaders within the team, they would have condensed the centre of the park. Win the ball closer to goal and you may score the second.
Mercenaries have no leader.
Brian & Keith, Congrats on your well deserved recognition. The heart and soul of South Hobart FC for decades!
All the best.
Jon Darby
Thank you Brian and Keith for your support and contribution to what my Dad and I firmly believe was the highlight of his football career in Tasmania - coaching South Hobart to that 1978 Southern Premiership, beating Juventus to it - and then of course, not being allowed to take our rightful place in the State League the next season... because of course, Juventus were the next team earmarked for that, weren't they? Football changes sadly, and yet politics, equally sadly, doesn't. Brian and Keith, you are giants of South and I hope that I can see you again one day soon at Darcy St... hoping to bring my son to see the place where his grandad enjoyed many a triumph. Cheers.
