I'm guessing this is what it feels like as an Essendon supporter when they'll fall into 8th spot of the finals?

Who could remember that feeling?

It was only last year
It’s the winning a final thingy we haven’t worked out

Albanese has tweeted he will give us a public holiday if the Socceroos win the World Cup!

Would be unbloody Australian to not jump on the wagon now lads!!

Someone has to keep the country running! Bloody shambles.

Socceroos have as much chance of winning the world Cup as I have of getting a root from Jennifer Aniston. while Olivia Newton John fondles my plums....

Good publicity from Albo though

Does am Bays have a plum tree ?

I actually played goalie for a soccer team one year, in my teens.
I find it boring to watch though. Mind you Rugby is not my thing either!

My sport interests have been Judo and then Archery both for a short time as a kid, followed by Hockey and Soccer in my teens, and then Fencing at University. I dabbled in 2 mile (3.2Km) running in my 20s. Also, Jim Mills, then the pro at Kooyonga, was giving me free golf lessons when I was about 13 - he thought I had promise - but I got bored with that too.

Later in adulthood I took up horse riding for a while, but quit when I reached the point where my coach said I'd have to buy my own horse and ride daily to get any better. I guess I'm a bit of a dabbler and don't get seriously into anything. I was interested riding lessons because I'd actually briefly ridden a Melbourne Cup winner (Comic Court) as a child - two years after he won the cup!

You don’t think any aussies seriously thinks we can win it.

My lad

Played community club cricket for several years. Opens the bat against some decent bowlers. Has to retire after a certain amount of balls and hardly ever gets to go back in but does the hard yards and others get to prosper.

He started playing district - playing whites - and after a lean patch, last week made some runs but had to bat two times because of a follow on but remained not out in the second dig.

Got promoted to the reds this week because of injury/absenteeism and slated to bat down the order.. Came in at no 7 when we were 5 fa stuff all and made 50no, reaching it in the last over of play. it's his highest score ever by a long way and to do it in reds is just awesome. So proud. His main sport is footy but this goes to show that if you pitch in, try hard and practice, anything is possible.

My daughter

Not her pet subject but got a B+ in English. By her own admission, she says "dad, I can't spell" so to get a B is a phenomenal effort.

We got her grade today and the lad made his runs today, so a proud household is this one tonight.

Thanks for allowing me to gloat for a minute as a proud parent.

Great stuff gadj!

Be proud of their achievements

This.

Yep, there is good reason the Australian side is worth about $60m and the Argentinian side is worth $1bn.
The gulf in class is enormous but we showed a bit this tournament
