Yeah I watched it.
Matildas goal was fantastic. Americans didnt deserve to lose. They dominated, Australia sat back after they scored.
Although as soon as America scored they took over and could have won it.

I would say they get far more than they deserve actually
The fact that they are successful is a glaring indictment on how bad the standards of the Womens game around the planet actually are
Considering Australian Football is a basketcase and that nearly all of it is directed towards the Mens game that the women can be successful with **** all resources deployed towards it says plenty
Least with the Socceroos if we ever start making quarters semis of WCs it will be because we have done something right big time to achieve this as there is strength in our opposition
Spoken like a true dullard. Mks had it right. Inferior product with an even inferior opposition. The game is in its infancy. They even want on the aleague board to call the shots. The women's game is riding on the coat tails of mens comp that has taken over 100 yrs to get going. Its propped up like other sports to get more corporate numbers in the code. Too fast for you? thought so.
By all means lie about how great it is but dont be sucked in by the whole feminist regime where everything is better than everything else. You dont deserve a voice with your stupidity.
Matilda's back in town in November. Good one :thumbsup:
Seems Newcastle and Penrith are becoming the “home” for the Matilda’s!
2 x great crowds last time. Hopefully similar this time.
Couscous still Asst coach ?.
Not a single post in here, despite a great game in Newy last night.
Chauvinists, the lot of you.
Instead of throwing shit, why not start a constructive conversation yourself?
Be the change you want to see in the world.
And yes, it appeared to be a fantastic crowd at the game and it opened up in the second half well and truly. Hopefully that win retains our seeding for the World Cup. I thought we'd struggle for a result and it wasn't going to be our night after the first 45 but the win was emphatic.
I liked how accessible the players made themselves to the fans - particularly the kids. They'll inspire an entire generation.
It is an excellently coached team.
Hopefully Ernie was watching to get a better understanding that if you play somebody who has some idea about leading the attack you might just look like finding the back of the net.
Matildas coach gone. Rumours of players being behind it
Bizarre to say the least. Anonymous surveys etc, WTF sort of a circus is Gallop and FFA ?. Are these gooses at FFA for real ?.
Short of throwing the leg over a player under his control or some sort of sexual misconduct allegation the players should get on with the job of being the players and leave the coaching to the coaches.
If the FFA was taking seriously the general consensus of surveys Gallop would have been frog marched out of FFA HQ years ago. Gallop talks about poor culture, How about the clown start with himself and his Director of referee's and the poor culture existent there with poor officiating again last night having a direct influence over the result.. F&*(ing clowns
Rumours?
Gallop pretty much admitted it.
Nah,the old days are over. Boards/CEOs etc arent really in charge anymore.
The second the welfare of the labour is a concern, everyone needs to jump.
Remember, these days it's very rarely the perpetrator of the crime that gets in trouble in organizations, it's the people in charge.
Suits these days run like Usain Bolt to cover their asses.
Gallop has no option.
Cous already thrown his hat in the ring for the gig you would imagine.
Shootout interesting tonight. Tara obviously has journo friends involved in these allegations and has the bloke strung up.
Wiser heads Ned and Kossie very forceful pulling her into line...journo leaks are not evidence and until we hear some it is all a bit off.
Dont know what your whinging about
This is nothing more than women getting involved in this to force the FFA to appoint a women to the role
Nothing more than affirmitive action in play to force change for gender equality in Oz Football
Leftists and Gender Nazis will be delighted when a woman gets the gig to coach the Matildas
Stajcic is just a patsy pawn in this game
I agree somewhat with that - it isn't worth the risk now to coach a womens's team as a bloke these days.
Interesting that Kerr, EVE and De Vanna have all come out in support of the coach. This will have to split the dressing room.
blame leftists all you want bit you'll be completely off track
https://www.smh.com.au/sport/soccer/...19-p50sd2.html
the real culprit behind the toxicity in the camp is GVE, who can expect his marching orders soon enough
well FFA have done it again, sacked the most successful coach in the country, to be replaced by or is favourite to be the next Matildas coach, none other Gary Van Egmond.
Ok
Believe what you like
If you believe the so called success of the Matildas has been achieved under the so called toxic environment of Stajcics coaching whilst the same orhganisation the FFA stumble from one crisis to another at all levels then you are deluded enough like thoise who believe the Gypos will win the HAL under Charlesworth
There is no way in hell a team is successful in the toxic environment.these days.
management consultants are engaged to do surveys that achieve predetermined outcomes
Ok so you want the elephant in the room?
Being a pro feminist bigot isnt the answer. The game lacks in all ways. and is way over represented in the media already.
How long did it take the mens game to actually get organised, get on tv, paid for professionalism etc the ladies rode straight onto easy street and still is a long way off elite.
If you cant see these facts you are lost in leftard rainbow land.
yeah look the fact it was 'our watch' doing the diggging cant be passed off as small point.
they have an 'agenda' (i hate using the term agenda but not sure what better word to use).
Of course they were gonna find 'something' in amongst a high performance environment like a sporting organisation.
the fact that the FFA outsourced the survey, and who they outsourced it to, is pretty damning on their part.
Interesting retweet from 4th Jan being circulated this evening...

Hope you return very soon Mini, ready in time for the Cup of Nations? By then the Matildas off-field issues should be resolved and @Rae10D will be coach.
@ehighwood and @Reidyfour will make things for the best as many are unhappy with the current set-up."
Ray Gatt is onto it.
