Aussies abroad 🌍🦘

Id argue Hearts and Hibs

both usually way above a-league level...maybe not this season as they all look like dogshit

 

[Mr Cleansheets]

Id argue Hearts and Hibs slightly above too and would top the A league. The rest 100% A league, and id argue even the bottom couple of teams maybe slightly below A league level

This issue has been discussed so often on these boards.

The SPFL is rubbish compared with where it used to be and most AL sides would beat most SPFL sides.

Celtic have been here twice in recent years and were beaten by both the Mariners (when they'd just come last in the AL) and SFC when they'd just missed the finals.

Sure, it was their off season, but it was also ours.

When EPL sides play AL sides, they never lose.

That's the difference. And that's why only B/C grade Australians wind up in the SPFL these days. None of whom make the starting XI of the Socceroos. SPFL standard is less than AL standard but it is a better shop window, pays slightly better, and it is a full on passionate football culture - which is the only real advantage they have over our league.

Ante Šuto needs to consistently play if he’s aiming for a Socceroos cap.

Isn't that what he had last season? Complicated type of injury taking its time.

Hes injured

 

[rebelliousfeminist974]

Hes injured

Riley McGree should be closer to full fitness and a subsequent return to play though.

 

[JS96]

Needs a loan this season. Too long in youth football.

Ah Wrexham eliminated early is nice so we don't have to see any fake build up marketing.
