Well perhaps only Metalhead and I will be interested but Asian Cup has kicked off in Qatar.
Will be interesting whether that World Cup is held this time of year as Sepp Blatter has hinted
After disaster that was Ashes, pinning my national hopes on Socceroos under new coach German Holger Osieck who are currently one nil up after 11 minutes.
Added bonus here is Tim Cahill will be on national duties

they actually knock it around pretty well and that Diaz seems a decent player.
But they clearly cant defend and it looks like it could end up 5 or 6 if they aussies keep getting balls into the box in the second half.

Indians are very much outclassed though give them their dues, their arent parking the bus and at least trying to attack.
Lol Saudis sacked their coach after upset defeat against Syria in their first game, boy they dont mess around

Good start, 4-0 Harry and Timmy getting it done. The Sth Korea game should be a beauty.
Laza, what are your feelings re: Tim Cahill? Like? Dislike?

Well in hindsight mate I wish we had got him and not Harry
Brilliant player , the way he can ghost into the box and considering his size the amount of headed goals he gets is quite amazing
Obviously that's when he wearing green and gold, when he is blue he is cocky little twerp

@rse .. you guys still have no chance in winning this tournament I'm going to predict that the Syrians are going to win it, they are looking good
Iraq vs Iran today, old rivalries!!!

Not real sure how we will go MH, cant take too much stock from the Indian game. Will probably have far better idea after we have played the Koreans
