Regardless of godwins capabilities but to be left out becaue he's a contact is dumb. He has covid or he doesnt. Surely a test daily would suffice.

Yep. My wife is a nurse and if she becomes a ‘close contact’ she still can go to work

I would say he's the one who's made himself unavailable - his Mrs has it & they've got young kids

I'm looking through a list of players that Japan have to pick from.. holy shit that's a good playing pool. One of the better ones in world football i'd say. 

People always talk about on here how our playing pool has regressed since the socceroos beat them in 2006 but truthfully they have improved more than we have regressed i'd say. 

Currently they can pick an 11 that meets our 'Golden Gen standard' of top 5 league/ CL club as per.. 



They have a good variety of ages too, Nagatomo has played at the highest level has so much experience. Most in their peak age 23-27 and few youngsters chucked in.

Just thinking about our squad further. I literally can't believe in a huge squad of 27 players, we have only 2 centre backs that have previously been capped. That completely defies all logic in 2 such crucial games against strong opposition.

We've got quite a few experienced centre backs too. Spiranovic is still only 33, surprised he hasn't been brought back into the fold, top drawer defender. Rhys Williams also, Curtis Good, Wilko, Ryan McGowan, Matt Jurman, Bailey Wright. That's a lot of experience.

She's a critical worker.  Goodwin is not.

Judging by celtic’s Twitter it seems Rogic isn’t travelling for the Japan or Saudi game. Haven’t seen anything ‘official’ but celtic’s Twitter page put an article up of every player playing international games and Rogic wasn’t one of them.

FFS the excuse list just gets longer now. I have this optimism that we'll at least get to see players who've been waiting for a chance. I want them to leave it all out there.

So who comes in for Rogic? Probably a local as travel is tight. Just throw Ikon or Giannou in.

Remember the Aussie way which Ange used to bore on about, '"Country first ". Ah well another Greek hypocrite !
If the Rangers match was on this weekend, i guarantee that both would play.

It's stupid and I am supportive of public health measures.

Rogic has been a ghost figure for three seasons against Rangers. Ever since Gerrard arrived he has been posted missing in nearly every game that he has played.

As for fat Flange, he is a weak man who is an amusement to me.

Rogic is no massive loss. Just hurts more cause we have nobody else.

Like the guy, but he's never really stepped up for Aus unless it's teams like Nepal.

Daggers is playing a lot better than MacLaren - who imo is useless against anyone above a-league level.

                   Ryan
Karacic Sainsbury Degenek Behich
                    Dougall 
Atkinson      Hrustic      Mabil
               Boyle Fornaroli

Players to get behind ball and go quickly in transition. 

Amongst all the injuries, omissions and doom and gloom, not too bad a starting 11. Personally would shore up the midfield and throw in Stensness or Metcalfe with Dougall, put Boyle on the wing and throw Atkinson at RB instead of Karacic. Having Fornaroli isolated, he can hold up play and bring others into the attack.

I'd swap daggers for mabil - the guy was incredible against Kobe, is full of confidence and mabil just loses the ball all the time, put boyle where Mabil is and Daggers with Fornoroli
