Socceroos and Australian Football

[Simon]

A decent ref might have helped....

haha you're kidding, the shield was decent, thompson might have been offside for one goal but that was the linesmans fault. Adelaide cant blame anyone but themselves...

 

[Simon]

This Federici guy for Reading looks like an excellent prospect, surely has to be a future socceroo keeper...

Good final i thought, well played Melbourne in the end. After such a crap season last year they did quite well this time around.

Archie Thompson gunning away tbh.

 

[Craig]

6-0!

Quite handy to be a Victory fan today.

He looked very good against Man U, but i remember Jones having a similar type of game against Arsenal. I guess it really depends who gets 1st Team Football first. I don't think our keeping stocks are that bad, we got a lot of players in Europe and most of the A-League goal keeper have played in Europe or are of that standard.

worst GF ever... .pretty much watched the shane warne match instead

Archie Thompson is the greatest man alive.

Fred is up there too

And I called a goal from Sarkies the minute he was subbed on at the 89th minute.

maybe i should have paid more attention to it, had guys like Murdocca and Alessandro who hardly played...

Melbourne Victory today signed Ljubo Milicevic from FC Thun, he is still only 26 so thats an excellent signing for them. I'm surprised he's come back to Australia now cause i dont think his time in europe is up...

I think gettng continual over looked for a spot in the Australia sqaud played a big role. Should get more chances with Tiger Cup sqauds and some Asian quailfiers mainly picked from Australian based players. Also playing alongside Leijer should increase both their chances, if Leijer isn't picked in the Asia Cup, there is something seriously wrong considering our lack of depth down the left hand side.

 

[Simon]

yeh Leijer should definitley be there, hes been sensational...

Apparently he had numerous offers from Premier League Clubs but was unable to get a work permit..

 

[Craig]

Kosmina (sp?) has quite.

He is up there with Recoba with outlandish statements that haveh ad egg on their faces.

 

[Simon]

he was gonna get sacked anyway, hes only got himself to blame really, Australian football is better off without him...

At the start of it all, I knew 1 player

 

[Matteh]

Didn't know Kevin Muscat?

Not as someone I'd want in my fantasy team.
