0-0 Draw

I truly did favor the tactic coach Darren Tilley used tonight vs. Miami. He played "backup" offensive players, such as Matthew Delicate and Rey Martinez and started Andrew Gregor as a central attacking midfielder. All three have something in common..... All are very desperate to impress Tilley before it's too late. Knowing that even 1 goal could win it for the Rhinos, it was smart to play 3 players with talent who are fighting for a chance to get increased playing time. Too bad for the Rhinos, Delicate and Martinez both played poorly, and without pace to their game. Delicate seemed lost, and Martinez didn't seem to care. I don't understand how a player who has barley played all season, finally starts, and is jogging to a 50/50 ball vs. the keeper just 12 minutes into the match. Uncalled for. I think i'd prefer to see Evan Milward play instead of Martinez from now on. Gregor however, i thought played well. In the first half, he didn't do much, but didn't have much to work with, with Deli and Rey, however in the second half with Mauricio Salles and Johnny Menyongar in, Gregor played great and set up many plays.

All that said, i feel tonight was a successful night for the Rhinos. The referees were horrid, which didn't help the Rhinos. Atleast 3 penalty kicks could have been called for the Rhinos. And Miami played a bunker defensive system all match. Boring boring boring. Tilley tried to get one past them, which probably would have opened up the flood gates, but we just didn't have it in us. Not bad though, 7 points out of a possible 9 in our last three matches.
