    FIFA 2026 WC - general

    Glad we got the right winners in the end. Even if Argentina earned their right to get to the final, they did not earn the right to win that final. They played so bad. Not a single shot until the 116th minute. Then to punch Rodri as well. Argentina are an absolute shit show and were such a...

    Football Kits

    One of the things about a kit for me is that I can tell you the team without needing to see the logo. Some of these kits are just random designs. They seem to not really have any key features or feel to them. We are getting to the point where kits have lost their meaning. Just recycle a new...

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    He clearly clips his foot. It's a foul every day of the week

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    I think the commentator was referencing that they did hear from both of them, we just never saw the Saka interview. When the stream came back on SBS, they were showing Mbappe and he was already halfway through the last question he got. So we basically missed all the post match stuff. *cough* I...

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    Biggest sporting event in the world, seems a bit of the wrong time to be cutting corners.

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    It's the world cup. Surely they could have had their analysis team in the studio. Just a one off. Or, use the FIFA feed.

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    SBS coverage is crap. Why did they cut away to like 10 minutes of adverts after the game. Where is the post match analysis, interviews etc. When they came back to coverage it was Mbappe talking in French. And the commentator goes, "thought of Saka and Mbappe". So we heard the french, but not...

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    I think we all see that catering to Ronaldo was affecting Portugal. England claims to have the best league in the world, yet they are saying their 2nd best striker plays in the Saudi league. Kind of questions the strikers playing week in week out in what is meant to be the best league in the...

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    I've never really rated Toney. Don't see the hype around him. And you're right. If you are picking someone from the Saudi league to be your lead striker, then you have some major issues in your system.

    FIFA WC 26 - Other Nations LIVE Match Thread ⚽

    Tuchel learnt absolutely nothing against Argentina. It's clear that France are in control, and he is sitting there doing absolutely nothing. It's so obvious to see the midfield is over run, and what's the bet he brings on Dan Burn and John Stones.

    A-League Forum Fantasy

    I was thinking more about it and I reckon switching to A-league might be a good idea. After all, we are an aussie football forum. If there is enough interest in an EPL or Champions League one even, then I am happy to do that.

    I'm definitely anti-Liberal, but that does not mean I am pro-Labor. I'm not sure what else to tell you, but I don't support Labor. Ok. I'll just go back to living in my fantasy then.

    2026 WAFCON

    I'm well aware of African corruption. It's so sad though, because they could genuinely have amazing infrastructure and world beating teams. The Vilda thing was annoying because it happened somewhat soon after the whole saga, and it was just like, "how tone deaf are you". I guess the desire to...

    Australian news and politics.

    You used Sky as your critical evidence to make a point. If that's not claiming them to be the truth, then why use them? Sky will never even give credit to the ABC for anything, so they are hardly a credible witness against ABC I never once said the ABC were bastions of impartiality. If you...

    A-League Forum Fantasy

    I'd consider A-league if there was interest. Would probably have to cap to 10 for an A-league one.

    Australian news and politics.

    Dude, I am not a Labor supporter. I have never voted Labor and have no intention of voting for them. I've not even defended them. I've only spoken about the media. And as someone who has history working in the media -including for newscorp- I've got a bit more knowledge of the inside than from...

    Australian news and politics.

    I don't vote Labor. Never have. I literally agreed with you that the ABC should be impartial. I was simply saying that using a biased organisation to try and prove another is biased isn't necessarily strong evidence, especially when the source is one that has been a crusade against the ABC...

    Australian news and politics.

    I never claimed to have all the answers. Was just highlighting the hypocrisy of you calling out the Guardian as biased and not trustworthy, yet using Sky as trustworthy. It's obvious you're anti-labor and that's fine. People can vote how they want, but let's not pretend that media outlets like...

    Australian news and politics.

    My point is simple. If you refuse to acknowledge the Guardian as a source, you can't acknowledge Sky. I'm not going to sit here and attack the ABC or any other news outlet. Australia has a media issue in which we have not protected our media and its legitimacy, which has led to private control...

    Australian news and politics.

    I did actually watch it. Andrew Probyn says, "certain parts of the media". There is no clear mention of the ABC (although he probably eludes to them, but then again he works for NINE who are right leaning). In saying that, The lady from the Guardian called out what Albanese said and labelled it...
