    Probably tried to throw it to get the cromos through.
     
  2. SuperNova SJ Nova

    He went down very early for a shot and it hit a bobble and bounced over him didn't it?
     
  3. Julian BJ Taylor

    yep. and he got nowhere near a free kick from about 25 yards that probably should have been saved. almost dropped the ball over the line at one point too.

    The Australian soccer team really need to uncover a bit of a larikin to be their poster boy imo. Cahill seems to have a bit more personality than all the others past and present, but still very bland.

    I still support them of course, but just never find myself connecting with the side.

    Travelled down to the game. It never fails to amaze me how quickly a new coach can change the playing style of a side overnight. It wasn't totally convincing, but defensively we looked so much better with Williams at the back, while Jedinak and Milligan were both outstanding.

    Looked pretty good 1st game under Ange and hopefully we can get a few more games and camps before the WC

    How did Neill go at the back ?
     
  9. Julian BJ Taylor

    Did Williams play fullback or centre half Speirz?

    I recorderd the game but someone told me the result so I haven't watched it yet.

    Australia were the better side but Costa Rica never looked into it. Missed a few good chances as well where as Costa Rica only had the 1 near goal that I remember.

    Australia definitely should be winning these games, which under Osieck they probably wouldn't. Costa Rica at home and factoring in thing such as jet lag and the fact we arrived earlier meant it was a game we really should win and duly delivered.

    Solid enough. Williams was more convincing in my eyes though. Neill did make a couple of physical challenges on players off the ball that he wouldn't have got away with under a different referee.

    Centre.
     
  12. MASTERS S Masters

    Speirz, did he do enough to get a gig in Brazil ?
     
  13. Colesy BL Hornby

    Neil will be there 100% and rightly so.
     
  14. Julian BJ Taylor

    So our most important and only classy player nation wide has done his ACL and will miss the WC finals.
     
  15. PienaarColada DH Mulray

    Tim is fine, isn't he?
     
  16. Freddy MJ Johns

    Tommy Juric?
     
  17. Speirz DG Speirs

    Yeah, it's horrible news. Pretty much ensures we'll probably have to resort to crosses and set-pieces as our only goal threat.
     
  18. Lukic L Popovic

    You got about 3/4rds of the name right. Change the Jur to Rog and you're spot on.
     
  19. Julian BJ Taylor

    Fuck I can't believe these omissions. No Wilkshire is a laugh, even if he has regressed.
     
  20. MatthewJay TA Miokovic

    Yeah we're so fucked now. Kennedy and Rogic at 70% fitness are miles ahead of some of these other blokes.
