    One of the Kiwis to post their squad.
     
  2. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Who was that Aussie cunt that tried to kill our guys the game before the WC. Is he there?
     
  3. Speirz DG Speirs

    Vince Grella IIRC.
     
  4. 99* JJ Ritchie

    Bugger, would have liked to see him get some pay-back itbt.
     
  5. El Nino J Torres

    Federeci in goals?
     
  6. Speirz DG Speirs

    I'd imagine so. Langerak might get a run for a half or something though, he does need some game time.
     
  7. SmellyStuff MP Chung

    Pretty sure Cahill made a pretty bad tackle as well.

    Anyway, considering the Aussies managed to beat the Germans in Germany, I really don't have any expectations on this game.

    Yeah Cahill's was yuck.

    Would love to see Mitch get some minutes.
     
  9. Mike ML Martyn

    I do remember that game. It was more fun to watch tbh.
     
  10. Speirz DG Speirs

    Yeah, it was the two of them on Bertos I'm pretty sure.

    Our main issue will be scoring. Unless we resort to bombing it at Kennedy's head (which would probably work), a lot will rest on someone like Holman or Emerton popping up and scoring.
     
  11. El Nino J Torres

    Or Kruse :ninja:
     
  12. Speirz DG Speirs

    I'd actually prefer we lost than him scoring. A goal from him might fool some people into thinking he's international standard.
     
  13. Jabba HJ Bots

    Rojas do get smashed calling it now. (if he takes the field)
     
  14. irottev CJ Smith

    NZ are gonna lose horribly. Hate to be pessimistic.
     
  15. Riddy JH Ridd

    is federici the starting keeper for Aus?
     
  16. El Nino J Torres

    Schwarzer is #1 normally.
     
  17. Phlegm SP Phlegm

    Didn't realize Australia were a European side. (face)
     
  18. Riddy JH Ridd

    ah shit yeah, i automatically assumed he'd retired for some reason
     
  19. Speirz DG Speirs

    More of a compliment than an insult really.
     
  20. Verigoat S Verigotta

    I dont think theres going to be a problem with anyone thinking an Australian is international standard footballer :troll:
