Little prick deserved it.
The FFA got the result they wanted so that’s all that matters in the end.

I edited it mate. Cheating little prick didn't hand the ball over to hold up play.

FFA will cop it over tonight as they should. The fact they are comending the Ball boy getting a medal
Is only going to make it worst for them. Absolute disgrace

I went to bed straight after the whistle last night shaking my head. I wake up this morning to see that kid lifting the cup in the presentation of the trophy! What the actual **** ? 90% of people who watched the game could see the kid deliberately did the wrong thing and then he is glorified for it?

No wonder why the NRL shot Gallop out of a cannon!

Why do soccer players caress each others faces when they substitute on and off?

The kid knew exactly what he was doing.

Poor kid was like a deer in headlights when he saw the United player was going to attack him and braced for it.
Well done to Sydney for making the kid feel better and looking after him, hope it helped the trauma of being attacked by an adult.
Who cares about the result as its just the FFA Cup, I watched Family Food Fight instead.

Not about adults attacking children. I may be old school but I think men should never touch kids or women aggressively.

This would have to be the worst comment of all time. You are in a massive minority here with Sydney fans. Should have given the ball back which was his job instead of cheating. Made no difference on the result obviously, **** the kid. He knew what he was doing

Sad state of affairs in this country if people against violence towards children are in a minority. Nothing would suprise me in this world though.

Aww **** please! You make it sound like this is some 6yo kid whose been randomly attacked and beaten.

He would be a teenager, he would be well aware of his responsibilities and duties as ball boy.. ball went out, player ran towards him waiting for the ball to be given - he didn't then as the player approached, he slowed himself right down - you can actually see him split step - and reaches for the ball at which point the kid turns away and is knocked to the ground.

Kid deserves a clip around the ears, stop painting it out to be something it's not.

I'm sure the kid feels real traumatised today as well, probably acting the hero at school, showing off his flash new medal and reliving the great story of how he sparked a melee and helped his state win the game.

No child deserves physical abuse no matter what the age IMHO. Something I would never do.
My kids are grown up now but if you or any other adult touched them when they were kids I would have put the adult in hospital.
I applaud Simon for going in to help the kid, I'd have done the same.

His state?
Its club soccer, Western Sydney fans who gave a rats would have gone for Adelaide!
Its nothing to do with the states, now you're sounding like a deluded Crows supporter.

Sydney FC are the FFA’s love child so nothing pleases them more than seeing Sydney lift trophies. Ever noticed how all the A-League media, hierarchy etc is Sydney based and Sydney gets all the big games when history shows that Melbourne and even Adelaide are more worthy

Correct - The crowd was great last night. Made them look like idiots with only 13k turning up

Doesn't the FFA boss own Sydney FC?

Adelaide are getting less than 9000 to games at the moment, hardly a poor crowd when 13,000 show up.

They also did everything possible to get an all Sydney final. The ref in our semi against WSW was a disgrace and no surprise we have been missing players since that game due to injury

Last night was a final, we had over 16k when we hosted it. Hindmarsh would of been sold out last night. Last night was a shocking crowd

Would have sold out last night Boon. Correct regular season games we don't get big crowds, but we would have had a sell out last night and a much better atmosphere than what Sydney provided for sure
