Norway vs. Australia

Let the insults begin!

That's why I made the thread(and to add to my post count, and because I'm bored)

Aussies count friendlies as the be-all and end-all of International football, remember.

Young Matilda's are 4-nil up at half time against Thailand. Nothing wrong with that, unless of course Perth is getting delayed telecast and we fail miserably int he second half

2-2, fair enough result, emmo and cahill played blinders, its all part of the master plan of qualifying for the 06 WC, so the result wasnt that important....

Anyone trying to pick a fourth and fifth from that lot must have some kind of precognitive skills...

Yet if they're as good as you all like to make out, surely they don't mind who they play (especially seeing as if they were to get this farcical automatic spot they'd have to face far bigger teams)

marc, grow up, no one is suggesting that Australia are going to win the world cup, but most people can see this is the best team we have had in a very long time....
