Tomorrow we embark on our last game before those dreaded World Cup qualifiers. It will be a long and tough path to South Africa, but that’s a story for another day.
I am excited about the prospect of watching a new era. What I mean is the frontline pairing of Kennedy and McDonald. These two have [...]

I’m not exactly sure which stage of the seven stages of grief I’m at right now (my team got knocked out of the MLS playoffs this weekend) but life just got a tad sweeter on this side of the pond because there’s now a new annual tournament between MLS, A-League, J-League teams, and maybey [...]

I hope this isn’t an indication of whats ahead for Australia… FFA Techincal Director Rob Baan is the coach for the Nov 17 Nigeria friendly. Apparently, now Dickie (thats what I am calling him from now on) doesn’t plan to make his coaching debut until the start of the world Cup Qualifiers in [...]

Well, welcome home John Aloisi. The formerly unattached international just signed with the Central Coast Mariners in a somewhat cool and sneaky deal to allow the club two marquee players for the rest of the season. As pointed out by Philip Henderson over at Fox Sports:

Sorry for the delay in posting, I had a massive project to complete for my paying job and a major IT disaster at my house that crippled my ability to play A-League catch up.

This whole Dick Advocaat situation does not sit well with me right now. According to this article, he’s poised to take over as head coach for Australia in November, but, his Russian club thinks he’ll stay if their team automatically qualifies for next season’s UEFA cup run. On top of that, this [...]

Hello World!
I’m going to take a stab at covering the socceroos for this blog, have fun, and support the team(s) all during the ramp up to the next World Cup. It will take me a while to fall into a stride here but I hope to get into gear quickly and that I can [...]

Tomorrow marks our first hit out since the disappointing Asian Cup campaign. We will be up against the number two team in the world, who will be at full strength. I can’t wait for the likes of Messi, Tevez and Saviola to strut their stuff and play some beautiful, stylish football. I’d rather Argentina show [...]

Despite an indifferent Asian Cup campaign, we’ve been seeded number one in Asian qualifying for South Africa 2010. This means we get a bye for the first two rounds of qualifying. Our first match day is then on February 6th. My only concern is that on some match days we’ll have to make do with [...]
