Yeah agreed - would be a good candidate. Has worn the captains armband this year for Hull and I believe he is VC - so they must see some leadership potential there.

Apparently massive Nepalese contingent rocking up to this game, there are a few hundred thousand that live in Straya.

Just bought a ticket and the PAX is 19549 which is very reasonable actually

Chinese Taipei is a name imposed on them the international community at the behest of China. 

I'll call it Taiwan because that's what it is. 

Give my regards to Premier Xi Jiping when you make your next report.   

Did you miss all the ABC news?

Will this be shown on free to air? 

10-0 Nepal look at about a Tajikstan level.

I'm predicting a 6-0 victory tonight. Nepal will most likely sit back and look to get us on the counter and considering we aren't very clinical it may be 1 or 2 nil at half time and we'll score a few more in the last 15 minutes. We should be looking to play for corners too when possible.

Edit: Their forward Bimal Gharti Magar will be one to keep an eye on he's 21 now but first played for the senior team when he was 14. Currently playing for a club in The Maldives but has had trials in Europe before.

Fair to say that this game hasn't really captured the imagination of the Canberra public...been a bit in the newspapers but really overshadowed by the Raiders GF run. 

I wouldn't expect more than 15k there tonight and I'm sure the Nepalese will be louder than us

Its a chinese Taipei  for all of their sport teams. U should never call Taiwan. It will be funny to call Taiwan. Its nt a politic or holliday.

score predictions? 

For Nepal game
Referee: Thoriq Munir Alkatiri (Indonesia)

While it would be nice to see, I couldn't see it happening any time soon. His definitely one for the future though. 

Leckie, Mooy, Degenek, and even Behich would all in my opinion be above him in the pecking order from the team you picked.

Would be great if Irvine was given the captains armband tonight.

Wouldn't mind seeing something like this:

Plz can some strikers score tonight. Don’t even care which one/s

^ Agree. Lock them in! 

Really want to see Hrustic and Souttar in the 11 tomorrow!

While the FFA might be obliged to call them Chinese Taipei, there's no reason the media should, although they probably don't know the context.

I'm surprised they'd have room after all the Middle East gobbling they've been up to.

Maybe FIFA gobbles the cock of China, oh wait, not maybe. 

the Luongo not in squad thing, I think his club asked him to stay cause he hasnt played that much for us anyways

or 10 nil 

Maybe they don't have the exclusive license to Taiwan this year

i think it will be 8-0 

Hope we pummel these teams. It's about sending a message!

Chinese Taipei should be called Taiwan.  

That's Taiwan. 

Australia's biggest down fall in football history is not taking teams seriously, Look what happened in Thailand last WC qualifiers.
