Fixed it for you...
(I like your mindset though, haha, no hope equals no disappointment)

Hmm, seems a bit harsh but I think they've been consistent with that interpretation for a while now.
How does one watch this match in HD?
I'm streaming via 10Play. Much better than free to air blur
Reckon you'll get HD on replay
I came here looking for the Matthew Leckie Fan club. :blush:
No comments bois?? :rof:
Was Arnie's half time phone call along the lines of "put your feet up boys we've got this won"?
Goodwin needs to play more football for our country.
agreed re Goodwin.
Good enough, a better team would have probably made us pay in the period after half time.
Not sure which i think is better - a draw between Japan and Saudi or a Saudi win.
I guess it doesn't matter, we need to beat at least Japan and get a point against Saudi (and not lose to Oman obviously). Worst case scenario - if we draw with Oman on Tuesday night i don't think we can be beaten for third (barring a 11 goal turnaround in the relative goal differences between us and Oman).
Hey google: who is coming fifth in conmebol...
Not sure why I'm thinking about the intercontinental match, we won't even beat the third placed team in group A.
Don’t like the prospect of Uruguay, Peru or Colombia.
I guess you would wanna take a crack at Colombia?
Optimist inside me is hoping we can beat Japan.
If Saudi win their game, they qualify. So they don’t need to win vs us.
This qualification just went from a strong possibility to not likely. Japan win probably sealed our fate as 3rd,
6 games to qualify now.
Need to beat Japan and KSA.
Last game for Japan v Vietnam: Japan could go out and make up goal difference. If we best them by 1 then gd becomes +5 on them.
Qualifying games with teams starting with U coming up?
Haven’t we got 3rd?
Couldnt understand why Oman were wasting time.
7 points behind us. 2 games left, if they pushed for a winner it would be 5 points which would be a realistic opportunity for them given our fixtures.
I think we are gonna go about it the hard way.
Bring on 2026
yep, my mistake - we're guaranteed at least third
even two wins wouldn't guarantee second now thanks to this **** up
the other third place looks relatively easy, probably UAE - but then again so did a depleted Oman and you saw how Arnie handled that (and China)
it's not entirely Arnie's fault, the quality of our players is at it's lowest point since the 90s

Few more midfielders there haha
Blokes like Rowles, Redmayne and Grant are in the team says alot about how poorly Arnold has managed this second round of qualification. Society has progressed passed the need for any of those 3

Arnold has covid again. I feel sorry for the guy, but I'm starting to get a bit suspicious...🤣
Maybe the Bruno rolli can win us a pen!
We're screwed
Only chance is to Score 1 then apply WWE style defence. We cant even park a bus properly
