They're still complaining about the disallowed goal? It clearly curled out, and the linesman was in a *perfect* position looking straight across the line. Ridiculous.

In a season that has had more away wins than any other, it's hardly surprising that the away (or nominal away) team have won 4 of the 5 #ALeagueMen finals matches thus far.

If you're curious, since 09/10 we have gotten close to a 10th player on this list only once:
Adrian Segecic (2020/21 Semi Final)

Luke Didulica on the bench for Victory. If he comes on, he'll be the 10th #ALeagueMen player to debut in a finals match:

05/06 (T. Ozbey, J. Spagnuolo, G. Owens)
06/07 (T. Hearfield)
07/08 (S. Jin-Hyung)
08/09 (Henrique, Ro. Griffiths)
09/10 (I. Ramsay, J. Gibbs)

So if the understanding that both legs of the MCY-WUN semi will be at AAMI Park is correct, that means 3 of the 4 semi final legs in the #ALeagueMen this season will be played at that venue.

Wanderers earned the home elimination final. So APL deciding to play the away team's goal celebration song is kinda lame. #WSWvMVC

Look, not sure it was enough of a clear and obvious error to overturn that. But given the history of VAR in this fixture, I think we can let this one slide πŸ˜‰

Quite incredible that Adam Taggart managed to get to 10 goals this season, given the *entire* Glory team managed to score just 22 times in 26 games.

Well, unless Kosta Barbarouses or Eli Adams go on an absolute tear tomorrow afternoon, we're heading for our first joint Golden Boot in the #ALeagueMen since Berisha/Maclaren in 2016/17

The two highest #ALeagueMen seasons for goals per game have been this season and last season.

And you can't separate them right now!

Last 10 games: 56 goals, and ~16 minutes per goal.

Still the best league in the world.

The last 9 #ALeagueMen games have seen 48 goals scored at a rate of 5.333 goals per game.

That's 1 goal every ~17 minutes.

Best league in the world.

And with Kosta's VAR-confirmed goal, we hit 33 total goals at an average of 5.5 goals per game β€” eclipsing the previous record of 5.4 (2014-15 R15)

Ugh, I can't read.

5.4 is the current highest for average goals per round, so we only need 2 goals for the remainder of the round to better that

And with that goal to Michael Ruhs, we hit the magic number of 31 β€” the most ever goals in an #ALeagueMen round!

Now to beat the best average goals per round of 5.75. We'll need another 4 goals to do that πŸ˜‰

And there it is. 5-2 at #NEWvWUN, and the 30th goal of the round β€” equalling the #ALeagueMen record!

Will it be broken before this game ends?
Will it be broken during #SYDvWEL?
Will nothing happen for the next 110 mins of football and disappoint us all?

What we *almost* had at #ADLvMAC last night, if Luka Jovanovic's goal hadn't been ruled out by VAR:

- Equal most goals in a single #ALeagueMen game (10).
- Equal most unique goal scorers in a single game (9).
- A "scorigami", with the first ever 5-5 result.
