Well Done Socceroo!

[West]

WOO HOO

You guys would have probably got over with the soccer thing after the world cup but last night, the socceroo did us PROUD once again, well done boys well done. We're now facing the giant Japan but once again i have faith in them, they will do it.

Anyone know if SBS will re-screen last night match?

[Bec]

Yup was ace!!

Bring on Japan - we'll destroy them again

My guess is that SBS are too wrapped up with the Tour at the moment to replay the soccer.

LOL did us proud ? they lost to a country that is in war... and they drew with a country that half the worlds population doesnt even know it exists. did us proud... my ass. we should of had 9 pounts 1/2 goals conceded 10 goals scored.

Who cares, we could have lost, we did loose to a country that is in war but after all this is sport, you win some, you loose some.

It could be the weather, could be anything but the point is these guys did a terrific job to get us back in the game. I don't care what happened previously, i'm always behind my country regardless.

GO SOCCEROO!

SBS dont have the rights for the Asian Cup, Fox do.. so i doubt very much that they are allowed to screen any replays of games.

Their start to the tournament was VERY dissapointing, lets see what they can do now. Hopefully they have their act together for the finals.

[cheez]

im with those 2 ^^^

socceroos didnt deserve to progress to the last 8, but the mere fact that the players who beat thailand were alot of a league players goes to show that the players with names arent as good as they think they are.

players like lucas neil shouldnt be playing. too many damn mistakes in the last match for him and now how is graham arnold gonna drop carney, milligan and beuachamp? they all played stellar games and recall the guys that couldnt beat iraq?

[**JaR**]

gotta agree with the majority here...sure they won, and they're going through, but to say they played well is a bit of a stretch...the 4-0 scoreline definitely doesn't do thailand any justice considering how well they played, and that they made the majority of the scoring oppurtunities...

good to see the support, but don't get too cocky...they couldn't beat iraq, drew to oman and were tested on more than a few occasions by thailand....

[West]

I could tell you now if they happen to play Irag again, i'm sure they're in for a big suprise.

Like said with a line of players like Kewl, Viduka, Craig.......they should have taken us all the way to reach the cup easy but like said, they might need to get their act together otherwise, GO SOCCEROO.

I'm sure i'll have socceroo top on, with the massive socceroo Flag, watch the game of us vs Japan at TAB somewhere, we all know Japan is a tough one to beat in this coming game but once again, i'm behind the socceroo regardless.

[**JaR**]

lol next time they play iraq wouldnt have mattered if they didn't make it past the group stage...its no good to beat someone next time....iraq beat us, end of story.

[R-SPEC]

socceroos are shit. they were always shit and will always be shit. end of story.

not even God himself knows how they made it that far in the world cup.

what he said

[West]

I'm ready to kill some J a p a n e s e, that is all.

I don't play soccer but i do watch them, i really think its time that socceroo need a new coach. Our defense is a FKNG MESS!

[cheez]

oh well, socceroos out... damn that hopeless quaitie ref and that equally as stupid coach. both f*king morons

[R-SPEC]

why the f**k are people blaming refs and coaches? its the players that are f**kin shit!

when are you gonna realise that?

sheeesh

[cheez]

then y under a different coach, they played a different style of soccer, played a more fluent game and had people going wow? with arnold he is a shit coach and the ref you have to say made some very poor decisions, 1 the red card against vince grella was not a red, and so many fouls that japan committed werent given.

also it didnt help that the coach used all of his subs by the 80th minute when the red came.... poor coaching not to leave anything in the tank shoudl it have gone to etra time which it did. thats all.

players arent that bad...

[FordyR31]

They were shit all tournament! They didnt attack the ball on defence like they usually play, they didnt play the simple short ball and 1st time passes and allowed defence to close them in. They didnt switch play enough, I remember 2 all tournament and it was kewell both times. When he switched it Emerton had about 20m around him of room. Arnolds tactics were pathetic. It was even said when Guus Hijdink was manager Arnold would still want to do things his own way. New, european manager would suit the Socceroos fantastically! My 2c lol.

Our players are shit, do you want me to give you a knock in the head for you to wake up! . They don't get pick by the Euro teams for nothing jesus!

[sky^rkt]

bah the soceroos suck. they got big name players and they still loose. f*king morons

[manage13]

The best Australian soccer players don't wear the green and gold. It's a shame that there are so many talented soccer players out there that don't get the chance.
