Australian Squad

Simon · 18-01-2006, 12:21 AM

So whose going to be in the squad, most of the sqad picks itself, the guys definately going imo are...

Mark Schwarzer
Zelko Kalac
Harry Kewell
Mark Viduka
Jason Culina
Scott Chipperfield
Lucas Neill
Brett Emerton
Marco Bresciano
Tony Vidmar
Tony Popovic
John Aloisi
Josip Skoko
Vince Grella
Archie Thompson
Tim Cahill
Craig Moore (if fit)

theres probably a few others ive missed out but these guys will definately all get spots...

ash chaulk · 18-01-2006, 03:41 AM

Brad Jones as another backup keeper took over from schwazer when he was havin a sad with the coach...

in the WA papers Simon Colosimo really is pressing for a spot

any other A League players do you rekin should go?

Simon · 18-01-2006, 03:44 AM

i doubt too many A League players will get a spot, maybe only David Carney...

duffer · 18-01-2006, 04:49 AM

Not too sure about Jones, he spends too much time on the boro bench and when they put him on against Arsenal, it was rabbit in the headlights stuff. His decision making looks really bad. Untill he can get some confidence I'd rather someone like Filan or even Bolton as 3rd keeper.

The Foxtrot · 18-01-2006, 04:22 PM

i aint sure but i think the lineup will be similar to the game against Uruguay
keeping harry kewell on the bench may change...because he did have an instant impact last game...but he is still a tool....and if he can stay uninjured

here's the list of players that Hiddink had selected for the matches against uruguay
John Aloisi, Marco Bresciano, Tim Cahill, Scott Chipperfield, Ante Covic, Jason Culina, Ahmad Elrich, Brett Emerton, Vince Grella, Joel Griffiths, Zeljko Kalac, Harry Kewell, Stan Lazaridis, Ljubo Milicevic, Lucas Neill, Tony Popovic, Mark Schwarzer, Josip Skoko, Archie Thompson, Michael Thwaite, Tony Vidmar, Mark Viduka, Luke Wilkshire.

tactics is a different thing...

vic_orthdox · 18-01-2006, 04:28 PM

Do you think they'll give the captaincy back to Craig Moore if he's fit, or keep it with Viduka?

luckyeddie · 18-01-2006, 04:30 PM

Incidentally, The Foxtrot, why Dirty Leeds?

Is it from the days when Viduka and Kewell were playing for them, or is there a secret former residential or ancestral home there for the The Foxtrot family?

chaminda_00 · 18-01-2006, 06:53 PM

Ante Covic you would think would be the 3rd keeper unless he really stuffs up in the Asian Cup QF or a Friendly. ATM Brad Jones is about 6th in line, there are quite a few infront of him. But if he gets regular football at Boro that could change.

My Sqaud ATM:

GK: Mark Schwarzer, Zelko Kalac, Ante Covic
DF: Craig Moore, Lucus Neill, Ljubo Milicevic, Tony Vidmar, Tony Popovic, Michael Thwaite, Brett Emerton, Scott Chipperfield
MF: Harry Kewell, Tim Cahill, Marco Bresciano, Vince Grella, Jason Culina, Ahmad Elrich, Luke Wilkshire, Josip Skoko
FW: John Aloisi, Mark Viduka, Archie Thompson, Joel Griffiths

Biggest name missing is probably Stan Lazaridis

Griffiths is a midfielder Tharmi, actually Leeds confirmed that they've signed him yesterday I think

I remember them when Revie was manager - he and Cloughie absolutely detested each other. Derby and Leeds had some awesome battles in the 1970's.

Surely The Great Ned Zelic should be on there?
