Ffs the guy flew in last night. This shit makes no sense. A striker who has been training for 2 weeks can't even get off the bench. It's so bloody frustrating. 

Maclaren must be a very bad trainer, i know it is easier to blame the club and whoever but he must be doing something wrong.

Or he just has poor general technique and needs a game plan that is tailored to him to score tap ins. He is good at that no doubt.

Making off the shoulder of the last man runs is only one aspect of playing up front in most teams and is something a lot of wingers/smaller forwards at that level can do if instructed with quite likely more poise and consistency.

No move for Brad Smith. Unbelievable. Bournemouth reserves are his current team but better he plays there than hovering between both squads.

I’d be disappointed if the Victory hadn’t at least enquirer about Brad Smith. We’re crying out for a left back. A less hectic schedule might do him wonders too. It’s worked for Rhys Williams so far.

Never even thought of that, would have been a wonderful move for both parties, and with Milligan gone leaving the marquee spot open even the FFA couldn't get in the way.

img tags work but you have to get the source image (which is actually a webp and not a gif). That url is actually a web page.
 

How I managed to embed a gfycat player is a bit more of an involved process.

He would have got a red (hopefully) but then we'd still have gotten whinging about VAR interfering.

I too have never forgotten this tackle :laugh:

Probably not really an Aussies Abroad topic this one, imo. 2 and a half days on this one is enough without it's own thread, I think.

Behich started, Bursa 2-1 Besiktas at halftime.


By now, American Samoa must have realised that Australias 22-0 win over Tonga two days earlier was no fluke.

Hrustic played the full 90 minutes for Groningen in their 2-0 loss away to Vittesse.

Still awesome news he was given that much game time.

I would like it is a sign of things to come but Mimoun Mahi was missing who starts over him. Doan getting subbed and not Hrustic is a good sign though

Awesome to see O'Neill at least enter consideration. He's better than that Westwood hack. Westwood has been pro for years and keeps getting gigs. Most frustrating player I've ever watched.
