Can the Socceroos improve against the best team in Asia?
That was the question posed by coach Tony Popovic to his players.
The answer could decide whether they secure an automatic World Cup spot. More from me ⬇️

Spot on. He just needs to make sure he’s playing. I’m sure Hibs would take another loan spell.

Yeah, I’m a big fan of Segecic. Had shown more by comparison. I would’ve picked him, but what do I know 😂
14.03.2025 22:59 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0Segecic & Irankunda can certainly feel a little hard done by. The only thing I can put it down to is maybe he gets chucked on for 10 - 15 mins and produces something amazing which breaks a deadlock. Not beyond the realm of possibility.

Really interested to see what happens tonight on and off the field for Sydney FC. 2-nil up in an ACL2 quarter-final. Deserve a big crowd. Rhyan Grant is hoping that's the case.

Caught up with Young Socceroos goalkeeper Steven Hall at Sydney Airport today. Seems a good lad with a bright future. Said he wasn’t sure that save was for the 5th and deciding one in the u20 Asian Cup final until he saw everyone screaming toward him 😂

The repeated themes costing the Matildas on the road to the Asian Cup, why a brave loss to the world no. 1 is misleading in this case & the need to not treat Tom Sermanni’s time as coach through an interim lens. My take ⬇️ #matildas

“Un-Australian” defending, one shot the whole game and what went wrong in a 4-0 defeat to Japan at the SheBelieves Cup. My take ⬇️ #matildas #JPNvAUS #SheBelievesCup

If Thomas Waddingham can continue to get minutes for Portsmouth and the occasional goal over the next 6 weeks is he the front runner to play up top for the Socceroos in March given current injury concerns and form? My take ⬇️

Socceroos coach Tony Popovic delivering some brutal honesty to those who’ve been dubbed the ‘next big thing’ and why Australian football needs to expect more.

Mat Ryan isn’t the only Socceroo to have played for Lens. Robbie Slater is a bit of an icon at the French club and he had a bit of show and tell from his time there as well ⬇️

Definitely not on the Sam Konstas knocker train, but have been fascinated by the huge contrast with which he has gone about state cricket compared to test level. Spoke to a few people at the SCG this week about it ⬇️
