Socceroos

Merk will be lucky to ref another match.

From the Fox Sports website:
Kewell free to play

And so he should be ... abusing the ref is a national past time here!
While it's probably not the smartest thing a player could do it's nice to see that Harry is your average Aussie bloke despite his massive paycheck.

Well that was worth getting up for!

[Hailstorm]

That was a crazy game... I loved it but it was crazy.

Guus is a great coach/manager but what on earth was he doing putting Kalac in goals? I don't know anyone yet that agrees with the decision...

Go Aussies!! Bring on Italy...

[lotti]

that it was.

[Tigger]

I am soooo tired 

Great game!!!! Thanks to Harry's goal right after I said 'we really need some divine intervention' hahaha (my religion comes in handy sometimes  , that's my excuse & I'm sticking to it  )

I hope Guss plays Schwartzer (sp?) in the next game, pity about poor little Brett too  , oh well, like the old macca's ad from the olympics said - It doesn't matter what happens now, they're already champions!   

[Freshy]

Congratulations to the Socceroos!!

Been a long long time, worth the wait though.

how good is Lucas Neil!


I'm torn between Aussie and Portugal at the moment. I've lived in Aussie all my life but i'm a kiwi with Portugese background.

Lets hope Aussie doesn't face off against Portugal.


Anyways Cristiano Ronaldo for Portugese president!!!

Those words are so true.

[Insomniac]

Yeah glad we got through - we certainly deserved at least a draw!!  F**ken crappy reffing AGAIN!!  My god, it wasn't as bad as the Brazil game, but we should have had at least two more penalty shots!
I do think we were lucky with Kewell not getting pinged for offside when he scored the second equaliser though!

Looks like the Italians found some form too - fingers crossed we can 'em though!

My money is on Portugal - Pauleta or Deco to score the winner!

Anyone see the Outsiders this morning.

Great piece on the Socceroos and more importantly the way Australian sports people have a BAG of excuses ready to pull out anything if they get beaten.

It was a very funny piece but more to the point it was spot on.

Yeah but you have Aussie in ya blood, i don't but still i owe this country alot.

The Socceroos and Portugal are on opposite sides of the draw, I really can't see them meeting as I can't see us knocking out Argentina or Germany to get to the final.

Our quarter of the draw is probably the easiest route to the semis as I'd say it's the only group where we are capable of beating any of the other teams on our day.
