    Worst camera work...ever!
    Didn't know stills of nothing really happening counted as Replays as well.
    + 1 on that McKay comment LRO

    Timmy and his post match interview

    Jordan will be our biggest test this group...and only the away leg.

    PS I guess Ange won't be resigning

    I wouldn't be worried.

    Being we only need to finish top 2 of group I feel pretty content we will get enough out of the 2 Stan teams at home and the away leg in Bangladesh the home and away ties V Jordan will be pretty pointless other than the need to get wins to boost maintain FIFA ranking. Sure we won't want to drop points but I not see even getting beaten home and away having any effect on us getting to 2nd Round at all.

    Bigger tests await in the next round.

    This first up group stage thing is a bit of a farce. Not competitive enough. The AFC is not that strong a confederation once you take away the top 6 sides and the reality is we should be tested in all games and we ain't being tested much at all.

    Agreed on the competitive edge n all that but I enjoy the extra menaingful matches the boys now get to hone their skills together.
    It's why we went to Asia.

    How good is the guy, 2-0 up 2 minutes to go against no names Tajikistan and he is still running his arse off and looked pumped when he scored. Every goal seems like it means so much to him so he will just not stop working for it.

    As for Timmy

    Champion of Australian Football but it is high time Ange bit the bullet now and pensioned him off.

    Watching the game V Bangladesh even though he not start it is obvious how much we need to find a striker for the NT. Burns and Leckie are not the answer. All game V Bangladesh the pair of them are stationary all game just waiting in centre of park.

    The way Ange has the side playing needs a striker in the set up to be moving to provide options

    As soon as Timmy comes on then game plan changes and we start hoofing crosses in aimlessly towards him.

    We start him V Tajikistan and same shit happens. We dominate possession but offer little in the front 3rd until the last 20 mins.


    We would look so much a better side without him there. He is not a striker and does not have the engines these days to play midfield

    Not that we have a lot of options up front but with Russia now less than 3 years away we need to start looking seriously at this issue.

    Taggz gets himself fit and playing and the gig is his.



    As for the rest of the side its shows much promise for a bright future

    Ikonomides Luongo Rogic Wright show potential big time.

    The bloke to bag some goals for us needs to be found

    Taggz is going to score about 30 in the SPL this season. Going to tear it up.
