    Matildas vs Argentina

    Better have a new coach in place by the time this happens. Also need to see a proper structure and some blooding of new players. Too many are currently just getting by on reputation.

    Haven't really had a chance to follow things closely, but Zadkovich still stealing a living?

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    I'm not. I'm sorry if it is coming across that way. I read an opinion, I disagree with it, and offer a retort. That person is entitled to do the same, and if a perspective is put forward that makes sense and gets me thinking, I might switch my viewpoint, or be more inclined to that view. I...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    Again, with the "attacks". I've never discounted anyone else's views or opinions. I've simply provided mine from my perspective and my work within the game. The whole point of this forum is discussion. If you resort to attacks and responding in such manners as soon as someone disagrees with you...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    No one is tearing down the Matildas. There's a difference in level of criticism. There are those who are way more invested in this team than others, and as such it can seem that the criticism is harsher. There are others who don't have that same level of interest and so they don't view things on...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    Anyone who has known me for longer than the 5 minutes you have would know that I'm a football person. I don't work for any other sports organisation. I have no agenda to tear down our women's team. You just can't seem to accept that other people have ideas and opinions, and also you don't know...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    You clearly have an agenda. With the way the housing market is, I'm kind of glad there's at least one place I'm living rent free

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    This should have been lined up when he was here for the World Cup. I would have also then moved in to confirm it as soon as he left Juventus in March. At this point it was clear that Tony was out of his depth and was going to have to be changed. If they wanted to leave Tony for the Olympics...

    Green & Gold FC Podcast #5 - Talking Asian Footy w/ DeadBallTV: U20 Asian Cup, Socceroos & AFC vs CAF/CONCACAF

    I liked this pod. His views on CONCACAF and AFC vs Asia were quite good and pretty well balanced. It's not often you get someone who can talk with such impartiality.

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    He has a 25% win rate with the womens team. Doesn't speak well. Even John has never had a rate higher than 42% in all of this stints. Honestly, if the Aloisi brothers are the best we got, then we are in deep trouble.

    Acknowledge the a league☝️

    I say it's crap compared to what it used to be and what it could be. I'm not expecting us to be on the level of the EPL or anything like that, but we are kidding ourselves if we say it is a great league and that things are good. There are many who think it is on the level of or better than...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    It's becoming very clear that the FA had no plan post Gustavsson and still have no clue or idea what they are doing now for his replacement. It's almost like they are just throwing a name out and seeing what sticks.

    Acknowledge the a league☝️

    We don't have to. We can accept the league is poor and that things need to improve too.

    Ground Hopping

    Fortunately the bro is not a boasty person so when Liverpool win, I don't cop it too much. I guess only one of us could be the sane one in the family, had to be me. Bruce is definitely a legend back home. He's my profile pic. The man was an absolute maniac, but he was so good. At times it got...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    I look at the whole tournament and we were never really comfortable in all our games. If expectation was to make quarters, we made it very difficult to get there, which is why I would say we overachieved. How bad USA or Germany were is besides the point. You don't focus on what other teams are...

    Matildas ‘over-achieved’ at 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup

    Nothing to applaud here. The fact that the FA has not appointed anyone is showing their incompetence at gettig this done. It shows they had no succession plan for Gustavsson and that they have no idea what they are doing. The fact that they confirmed Sermani will stay on till we play South...

    I don't think many of us expected them to win especially with quite a few of the bigger names out. This is very impressive and full credit to the lads. I reckon we had them in normal time too, Dylan Hall just got his lines wrong. Very impressed with what I saw from Okon Jr. A lot of these...
