Here's an idea - medical staff should be able to request (via the 4th official) to review slow-motion replay of the head knock on the VAR screen, to aid them in making the right decision.

That's three incidents in the last week where a player was allowed to continue playing after a head knock, and then being concussion subbed and/or missing a game due to concussion protocols afterwards.

Something's gotta give. It's simply not good enough.

#NEWvADL #ALeagueMen

The sheer cojones to pull an offside trap in that moment. Best league in the world 😂
#SYDvNEW #ALeagueMen

At 1-0 up and dominating, I was thinking to myself "I wonder how the Wanderers are going to bottle this".

A 'late James Donachie winner' wasn't anywhere near what I had in mind, though 😳

#CCMvWSW #ALeagueMen

That is "Liam Reddy trying to beat four players" levels of dumb goalkeeping from Oluwayemi.
#WELvAKL #ALeagueMen

Hey, so analytics are all well and good, but maybe there's a *reason* the guy was playing in the J3 League ?
#CCMvMVC #ALeagueMen

There's still plenty of football to come this season, but there's no reason this Jets team — if they keep playing with the kind of style and verve we've seen the past few months — can't do the treble.

#NEWvBRI #ALeagueMen

Long with a brain fade of a challenge, and Bayliss secures the points for the Jets almost immediately after.

Shot. Chaser.

#NEWvBRI #ALeagueMen

First #ALeagueMen goal in almost 8 years for Lachlan Jackson. You can see why he's excited about it.
#MVCvSYD

If I had a dollar for every time a team playing with 10 men for 45+ mins had won in the #ALeagueMen this week, I'd have two dollars.

Which isn't a lot, but it's weird it's happened twice.

#BRIvWEL

Respect (or lack thereof) for refs is one of my real bugbears in football, so I'm all for how Alex King handled that — both the sending off of Valkanis, and getting both captains together to lay down the law.

#CCMvBRI #ALeagueMen

Jeez, if Matt Simon is trying to be the voice of reason you know it's *really* kicked off 😂
#CCMvBRI

In the space of just 3 weeks, Nikos Vergos has turned a long scoring drought into leading the #ALeagueMen 's Golden Boot.

#MVCvWEL

Back-to-back nights with hat-tricks. This league is very silly sometimes 😂
#MVCvWEL #ALeagueMen

It's just painful to watch Victory play right now.

So utterly disjointed all across the park, and besides Nish, just completely lacking a killer instinct in the front third.

#MACvMVC

Faghani like a frustrated parent there, dishing out the yellow card to Vrakas for refusing to put his shoes on 😂
#BRIvNEW

Would love to know what happened to that whole "only the captain can talk to the ref" change introduced this #ALeagueMen season.

Haven't seen any adjustment in players' behaviour, and it doesn't seem to be being enforced by the refs either.

#SYDvMAC #ALeague

I'm going to need someone to explain to me what the point of that two-man, kneeling attacking wall was.

Because, I mean, what the hell was that!? 😂

#CCMvWEL

They might want to turn down the effects mics near the benches 😆

Some very colourful language being thrown around when that goal went in. #PERvMVC

One inexcusably lazy touch by Jackson near the halfway line => turnover => counter => goal.

Just diabolical stuff.

#NEWvMVC

I am indeed 🙂

Brisbane have won the Fair Play Award in 8 of the 20 #ALeagueMen seasons.

But from these first 25 mins, I think I can safely say that they won't be winning a 9th this season. 😆

#BRIvMAC

Collegians-X celebrating winning the Metro 1 hockey premiership

Only took me til age 38 to win a premiership 😂. Definitely didn't think it'd be as a goalkeeper, but boy does it feel great to finally break that duck!

No, unfortunately no master list of all games. Had to go game-by-game, round-by-round to get them processed. A bit disappointing tbh

Interesting 2025/26 #ALeagueMen 's fixture for Victory.

5 straight AAMI Park games in Dec/Jan, and then 6 of 7 at AAMI between February and April.

If they can get off to a quality start *before* all of that occurs, it'll hold them in pretty good stead.

Between the misaligned text, mishmash of fonts, incorrect playing strip colours, and unnecessary flags, this might just be the worst scorebug I've ever seen 😆
#NZLvAUS

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.
#AKLvMVC

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.

#AKLvMVC #ALeague

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)
