Did those ch 10 numbers include paramount? They're usually split.

All this means is there are more idiots than connoisseurs in the world.

Miller's a good player against teams we expect to beat because he gets in crosses and even scores himself occasionally. I don't trust him against the better teams. Makes rash decisions and is always losing his man.

Don't think I've done it often enough for it to change my brain. Think about the times you've watched a match with a couple of mates. Typically you'll all be commentating the entire game.

Pick someone better? Geria, Bennie or Strain for example?

I've done commentary. Weird at first but you get used to it.

Thank god someone else noticed this. Mind you, we were so busy just booting the ball upfield to no-one, why would anyone even make a second man run, let alone a third? Yes the defensive shape was effective but we've got to pick players who can keep the ball under pressure.

Just heard Andy Harper on the ABC saying Saudi had to beat us by more than 8 goals... How does a person of such media stature become so ignorant? Every goal they score reduces our GD so the answer is more than four goals. Ie... 5

This is exactly the heart of the problem, exacerbated by a coach who has an ultradefensive style that bores and frustrates the enemy into occasional late error. We do have attacking players who can keep the ball but Popa doesn;t know how to use them, so he doesn't pick them. Triantis (I know...

A team inflated by helium...

Well that was hard to watch but easy to take. Now we just need Saudi to drop points tonight so Popa can play a more expansive team in Riyadh.

None of this is really to the point. Our biggest problem is that we don't pick our best team - not even close. Popa is an idiot.

To think we could have Triantis, Balard, Nisbet, Irankunda, and Arzani out there. You know? Guys who can play football? Naive, I know...

Such a shithouse team. Even if we win I'll still be pissed off.

Fabulous move if true. Should've gone there in the first place.

The Roar are pissing me off more and more. Too often they just ignore my articles so I doubt I'll write too many more. I wrote this a week ago and it's not been published... Future-roos The non-selection of Nectar Triantis by Greece has caused a massive sigh of relief across all Australia...

I'd feel a lot better with Triantis and Balard at the front of our defence but... C'mon you green and gold!!!!!!!!!!

Don't think it matters based on what he's saying. He's committed to the Roos. Which is a good thing.

If he's already played four competitive matches I think that means he's tied. Three matches under 22 ties as tight as one match after. I think...

He sounds like an excellent fellah.
