Aussies abroad 🌍🦘

They did it (admitted) three times and rumour suggests it was a lot more than that.

Clearly sanctioned by those higher up in direct contravention of the rules with clear sanctions.

No-one will do it again, that's for sure.

should've tried the trump defense and yelled about it being a perfect video recording

There were email or text statements from higher ups to suggest that it was a systemic and repeated action. They only got caught and admitted for 3 occasions but there reason to believe it was significantly more than that.

They're lucky they got to the playoff final or the point deduction could have been significantly worse.

Anyway. Riley and Sammy are now in a playoff final. Hopefully they smash it out of the park.

It'll be good for Riley McGree and Sam Silvera to be playing in the richest game in football with Middlesbrough and for them to have a chance to join the illustrious list of Aussies abroad who have plied their trade in the Premier League but ideally we want McGree at full fitness for the Socceroos ahead of our World Cup campaign getting underway.

Of the current likely starters (fitness permitting), who has played EPL? Ryan, Souttar, Burgess, O'Neill. Is that it or am I missing someone?

We could soon have McGree on that list and surely Nestory and Mo aren't too far away from that list.

Not a starter and not fit but Massimo Luongo played when Ipswich Town were there.

Kai Trewin should be a similar height to other midfielders in MLS but it's mainly his build which makes him seem undersized in comparison to them.

Guessing he can be released to the training camp now with that 1 nill loss?
Watched him and not the game, positioning, stepping out to close space and tracking of runners was exceptional as a number 6.
 
Apparently the Boro thing only went through because FIFA had existing precedent when the womens Canadian team spied at the paris olympics they were docked 6 points for using drones.

Word is Boro were going to go straight to fifa/arbitrary of sport and the FA panicked.
