Deal got rubber stamped while the socceroos were on the road to the World Cup.

Apparently plenty of donuts on the figure.

Bert van Marwijk, who took the Netherlands to the final last time he coached at a World Cup, has been appointed as boss of the Australian team on a short-term contract that expires at the end of the tournament.

Don't know much if any about him

His record is decent so I'm willing to give some time to see what he can do

I thought he was probably the best candidate of the internationals, but he's a poor man's Guus when it comes to charisma.

News report saying Australia may boycott the World Cup finals as a result of the recent alleged Moscow backed nerve agent attack in England. After watching them play Norway on Saturday morning that might not be a bad thing. I know we are not that good, but that was horrible. Hopefully some improvement tomorrow against Columbia.

Russia won’t care. Plenty of nations would take the vacant spot

Finishes 0-0 v Columbia. Only caught about 30 mins of the 2nd half, but the hosts probably should have scored 4 in that time.

I bet the Italians would love if that happened. They're the first in line if that happens, right? Or would an Oceanic nation take the Aussie spot in this case?
