    The Australian National Football Team General Discussion*OFFICIAL*

    I'm a bit promiscuous and anything that makes our Socceroo's stronger - ie nabbing players like Soutar or putting out for Volpato if he is so good then yeah so what. Saying that I've been critical of Volpato mostly from a club stats POV where are the mins? where are the assist's? where are the...

    Segecic has not even played 1 min for the Socceroo's I'm pretty sure and he is a lock? I certainly have been calling for his inclusion, but I think we need to cool it until he gets his first cap. You would have to think he gets a callup in March window

    Golden Boot Race - Aussies Abroad

    Well done McGree I didn't know he was back. He is a class player I'm not convinced the Championship \ Prem suits him (durability?) but as soon as he is fit again back in the first 11 Manager clearly really rates him! Also, Big! Middlesbrough go top - next up Coventry! I'm calling it I think if...

    Everyone seems to be banking on Soutar being back we are now approaching 5 months to go until the big dance, and he's been out for what 12 months so far. He has started training again (at what intensity?) .... it's all got to go smoothly with no setbacks from here.

    WC 2026 Seedings

    100% this after the unbeaten in WCQ I felt we were at least in the ball park for Pot 2 - - after beating Canada "pot 2 it's our diving right!" - after the last 3 games "pot 4 here we come!"

    I keep forgetting about Garang Kuol I remember how he came so close to locking it up against Argentina - Slight concern Irvine is not getting any gametime ATM.

    Socceroos vs Canada/USA Oct 25

    Great win I think the Canadians pushing the limits played into our hands quite frankly

    Golden Boot Race - Aussies Abroad

    Where did Irakunda's 3rd goal come from? he is listed as 2 Goals 1 assists in the Championship https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/championship/top-scorers https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/nestory-irankunda/alletore/spieler/956920#google_vignette He scored in some cup I can't find? EDIT: ah UEAF...

    How is Volpato going? he is valued so highly on that transfermarket (that crowd intelligence* platform) I'm not hating on Volpato but why? I follow the OS Aussies thread closely and I can't recall any goal involvements of note for what seems an absolute age, let alone goals and he seems to only...

    Australian Dual Nationals 🇦🇺🏳️

    in summary: we have people who live and work in Australia and their business model is to actively steer Australian talent OS? Is the issue we don't not have enough opportunities?

    Australian transfers 25-26 Winter

    I have a pretty simplistic view on this you have young guys who have simply developed and matured earlier and can dominate from a physical standpoint. It's particularly prominent in League, Union. And / Or younger players who simply get the tactical part of the game earlier than their peers so...

    Soccer Ashes thread

    Pardon my ignorance assuming we are doing ok and could get pot2. These games against NZ would almost be must wins to keep up the slim chance for top 24? I assuming losing to 86th place team would hurt that small chance? No disrespect to NZ at all of course I don't actually put much faith in the...

    Australian transfers 25-26 Winter

    I think everyone is frothing at the mouth to see him play - now we have qualified and no more games to play when is the next friendly? who are we playing? I guess non really know but FFA? and if we play him in a friendly or any new players, they can still switch allegiances until they play in 3...

    World Cup Qualification Thread for 2026 - Socceroos/Asia

    After 10 games looking at pure results, we did really good anchored with an exceptionally strong 4-win streak at the death 8/10 for me. We achieved direct qualification for the WC as a fan I hope the team and staff takes that confidence and we push up another level lets play a little with the...

    This has been Boyles most productive season in the SPL with 13 goals 5 assists For ref: Maeda (Celtic) is 16 goals 10 assists* I'm actually surprised its not higher I feel like I see his name on the scoresheet for Hibs every weekend. And with *2 games to go.

    Worst season Harry Souttar looked a lock for auto promotion with Shefield United he gets injured, and they drop away to a playoff place. Will presumably be stuck with leicester city fc now and they will be stuck in championship purgatory. Terrible for McGree important player for us and I...

    World Cup Qualification Thread for 2026 - Socceroos/Asia

    Well yes but less than that actually - Saudi Arabia have to beat us at home full stop in most scenarios I've played out in my head. Realistically for us we get a free hit at an already qualified Japan we beat them great that effectively wraps it up regardless of SA wins in their last 2 [Aus...

    World Cup Qualification Thread for 2026 - Socceroos/Asia

    Fair enough I have not even seen Triantis or Hibs play only some SPL highlights on YouTube but only hear good things and he has some attacking intent like Irvine? It's a very interesting game I feel like we almost get a free hit at Japan in Perth - who will play presumably JAPAN B side but with...
