Socceroos vs Turkey 2026 World Cup match thread 🇦🇺🇹🇷

Maybe after assessing them in training Poppa feels like Beach is the better shot stopper?

That has to be part of it. Beach made some good stops. Didn't seem gazed. One on one is always tough so I don't think it matters too much.

Then he needs to go to specsavers

Langarek would be fuming

Mr Harakiri who blew every Roos chance he got?

We just needed a progressive coach like Popa who can see the value of young talent haha

One on one is a major part and collapsing like Beach does is the exact wrong way to go.

We need John Rambo

Popavic sees something we dont

Yeah, delusions. What I hate is he brings in the changes NOW. He's had months so start Okon regularly and now does it. This is going to be interesting.

Ryan's always been solid, but prone to his fair share of fuck ups.

Oh god. Fucking Okon. It's not the a-league. We're fucked.

Do you think it went like, Paul snr - "come on Pop, give me lad a run, i'll suck your dick"

My inclination towards experience is out the window. Something about if they're old enough

5am. I need a whiskey to calm down.

WHAT THE FUCK IS THAT LINEUP???!!!

 

[state of origin]

Kinda reminds me when he played Brattan against Japan.

Just put the ambulance number next to u bro lol

 

[JS96]

At least Okon passes forward but it's the casual nature I don't like. This is just another level. Totally behind the lads but this is a bombshell.

 

[patjennings]

Don't worry - we just extended his contract

 

[Quicky]

I'm not sure how we win with that XI. WTF is Popovic thinking in midfield.
