Hmmmm yeah............ your gig Rocket.....bandwagons

How many of those soccer "fans" on the telly @ 0500 hrs would be following the local suburban or national soccer

Lygon St will be going off soon as well

I wonder what having divided loyalties is like

3 Aussies in the Croation team....compliments of AIS Canberra. & the tax payer ...obviously not good enough to crack the Aussie team

Buggar.
In the true Aussie tradition, we dominated the game against Italy for 70% of the time and then succumb to a dive in the last 20 seconds and get punished for being unable to put the opposition away.

I think the Socceroos did us proud and would have easily carried on to the Semi Finals if they had got past Italy.

We were robbed

What a stupid frustrating f*&^ing game

The "penalty" far out weighed the crime, (unlike our current sentencing laws).

In every other football code a penalty is taken where it was given

But not in soccer, no siree, they put you smack in front of goal & hand the GAME & your arses to you on a platter

This is exactly why soccer crowds get crazy, start riots, burn stadiums & attack the cops etc etc, it's the FRUSTRATION boiling over I felt like tearing something or someone to bits myself

Ah well back to the AFL, invented by Australians for Australians or anyone else who reckons the'yre good enough (& they're not) Bring f*&^ing Brazil over to play OUR game for a change & see how they go, that's fair isn't it

They'd be chopped up inside 10 minutes, fuggen tap dancing fairies

I watched for the 1st time and i dont see what all the hoohaa is about.What a boring frustrating game.We had them on toast,they were one man down and we still failed to capitalise.
When we attacked,we got it into the forward line fast enuff,but then f****d around with it instead of taking a shot.
And that ref,he would have done the AFL white maggots proud,he had no idea what the f*** was going on.
That last decission was definatley not a free,the italian guy fell on the aussie guy and was paid a free kick.?????????
Can anyone explain to me what the little green and gold hanky they carry onto the field at the start of the match is for,is it to blow their noses?Never heard of a bushy hey?

Its not the phantom anymore,its the urban assault legend!

They really should have buried Italy when they had one pizza maker short

I nearly set fire to my own house I was so frustrated & pissed off

White maggotts hey, you been to the footy lately
They now come in all colours of the rainbow, green maggots, yellow maggots, red maggots etc etc

Bastards cost us a finals berth last year

Yeah i know the maggots come in all colors now(like M&Ms)
but i guess im just a traditionalist,still white to me.Hell im still trying to get my head around the AFL instead of VFL.
I think they should have called it SFL(southern football league)
cause nobody north of the border gives a toss about real footy,they are still into their neaderthol no neck bum biters.
Whilst in banana land,i tried to catch some real footy on the electronic income reducer and bugger me,they would rather show reruns of the bumbiters than show the real thing.

I've followed football all my life, and as a West Ham fan have to say I'm a football fan first and Hammers fan second.

Italy play an outdated cheating game from the 70s and 80s and they are a bloody disgrace to the game. They gave the world falling over at nothing, and that guy was only trying to get into the penalty box and fall over, he had no goalbound intentions whatsoever.

For a country like Italy to be schooled in football by a country like Australia for almost all the game, should be an embarassment to them - their media will certainly point that out. Their game sucks, and does football no good. They are the only team of the 36 that were there that I cannot stand. For the good of the game they must not get to the final.

Mind you, here's an alternative view found in an English paper:

A Chinese football commentator has sparked controversy in the country with his hugely biased reaction to Italy's win over Australia - he defended his commentary by saying, "I don't like Australians." (The Times)

My wife said she saw something on tv where they were spying on Italy's training.

They were practicing stooging for free's & penalties, looks like it paid off

Screw it, back to real footy (AFL) where a goal is just a goal & not an event within an event.

And I can usually watch my team kick 20 odd of them each week

So the prima donna Italians play the fortunate French in the big Final.

Both teams very lucky to get to the end.
