Devlin, Mabil, Degenek and Trewin with 0 minutes, plus the two backup keepers.
 
Bit of a shame the next match is 4am in Mel/Syd. Imagine the live sites, bars and pubs around the country if this was another lunchtime game on a weekend. If we do win, our R16 game is at 2am, but if we win that we'll have a quarter final at 11am on a Sunday.

At least it's a Saturday. A mix of kick off times and some are better than others.
 
Blame the euro bias towards the kick off times, these games will be played during the middle towards the late afternoon where it will be the hottest time of the day.

They should have scheduled more night time games, blame it on the europeans whom would have complained about the kick off times like we do here.
 


When will wet wipes like this realise there are traditional powerhouses but an Asian and African powerhouse facing off plus an emerging African nation?

If we'd lost, we'd be out by now. Really tight.

Not yet. If we lost 1-0, we’d be above Scotland and Uruguay with three groups still to play. We’d need 2 out of 3 results tomorrow to go our way like South Korea does now.

Us finishing third definitely would have helped our AFC brothers Iran and Korea. Iran would be through already. We did them no favours.
