Did I hear right while watching Santo, Sam and Ed last night - 800k watched Australia v Kuwait on Friday night, of those only 250k watched on Fox?
That's a smaller number than you'd hope and a large % to be watching on ABC a game that was delayed until 10pm.

Yeah seems a low figure

But strangely enough Soccer seems to be a sport where people really get together and go out and watch the game.

Not sure about others but me and my mates went to the Hope Inn to watch the game, in total there were probably 40-50 people there specially for the soccer but that would only count as 1as they had it on one big screen when it comes to the ratings i presume.

Not sure what other venues were like though.

You know your opponents are rubbish when McKay does something useful, deadset plonker.
Should easily account for this mob, need the goals as it will more than likely come down to GD

Our GD is better than South Korea already so we don't really need any more goals

If we beat or draw with Sth Korea we will come top of the group

If Leckie had a good final touch he could be anything

Agree pretty much every pass he lays off cuts the defence to pieces, occasionally tries to take to many on but that's youth and he will learn as he gets older

Looking forward to seeing the game live on Saturday night

Thought it was obvious when it first occured. Shouldn't have been awarded but will take it especially after the disgusting challenge on Cahill.
