Lets all watch the Mariners.

There I've never said that before.

But the Mariners with Oliver Bozanic leading the way are great to watch. Well compared to the previous five years.

Still a bit heavy and blunt up front but the midfield and defence are starting to sing. Only in Season 1 when they should have won the Grand Final have they ever played so well, ever completed so many passes. Arnie we love ya!

And of course Irishman Paddy Perez, the mercurial 30 minute player, who once played for Argentina u20s is back. Is he better than Flores?

And Bruce Djite and Jason Culina line-up for the Gold Coast fresh from their win in Perth.

A belter?
