I can't believe we aren't slaughtering these bastards

[sinbad5]

30 minutes in and we're nil all with Iraq (FFS).

 

If these pricks can't beat a country that's been at war - against us - for 10 years - AND LOST - they don't deserve to be in Rio.

 

 

[sinbad5]

Well, we did enough. Just.

 

Baby, we go to Rio!!!! (I think)

[splitpin]

You did do it, well done to the Socceroos

No good for my Tom Waterhouse account (I had Australia ahead at half time and at fulltime) but, fair play, we're through.

 

We need to improve our patterns and our attack seriously for Rio.

 

Thank God we're there.

Sinbad,

 

I hope the 'Socceroos' are in England's group in Rio.

 

We don't mind picking up some easy points.

Didn't the Footballroos lose to Iran in a World Cup qualifier at the MCG?

You will first have to qualify.

Iran aren't a bad side. They have qualified.

Does it really matter how many easy points you get when you can't get out of your bracket?

Australia should 'Man Up' ffs and give England a decent Ashes next time or am i

Congrates, Hope England can make it.

 

Heard Brazil is expensive for mongoring now and people are not so friendly has other South American countries. Also not so much English spoken

 

Would be great to go, guess air fares and hotel prices will go up for world cup

[yozz]

Good result, but i can't see them getting far in Rio, but one can only hope, it's just great to see them going..will England make the trip ????? 

[plonka5]

we got no chance in the cup

im a proud aussie but if we can only beat Iraq 1zip  and only win against little countries

what hope do we have against  the European sides and sth American sides

the aussie press hype up the aussie team too much it only puts pressure on the players

but no chance of ever winning against those sides

Iran aren't a bad side. They have qualified.

You`re right,Iran have qualified for the finals 4 or 5 times and are one of the `better`teams from that region.I remember the `78` world cup in Argentina when Scotland had them in their group.Scotland had high hopes of doing well but ended up drawing with iran 1-1,scotland also lost to peru  3-1 and also beat Holland 3-2 (who got to the final) in a great game,alas it wasnt enough,just another chapter in scotlands dissapointing world cup record.

It's a thai buddhist funeral ceremony belief that the spirit can't 'Move On' if it is 'Swimming against a river of (Mourners) tears'.
