Now a penalty!? Bloody hell.

 

[El Triggso]

He really is a quality midfield anchor, which means we dont have to play that plank Milligan on his own in the guts.

I just love what he brings. If we was no good at football he’d have made a quality bomb disposal expert. Cool as ****.

What a captain!
Best we ever have had

 

[SMaturin]

Have never rated Milligan. Makes poor decisions, tries to take 3 Hondurans on from the defensive third, has an average first touch at kick off and a horrendous one by the second half.

Another penalty

HATTRICK JEDINAK!!!

Why no red? Last defender, hacked down, goal scoring chance.

Academic I guess...

 

[North Viking]

Yes!
Russia here we come!

Should've been a straight red.

Timmy will be getting on by June next year, but remember this bloke from Italia 90, who went OK at 38?

Btw my partner helped me prepare for today by saying we needed to treat the survey like a NAB cup game - take an interest, hope no-one gets hurt, and not invest too much. By tonight I was sorry not to wearing my gay scarf on the train.

And World Cup qualification too? What an awesome day this has been.

Great to win.

We still can't score in general play.

Nah, they changed the rule on that one about a year ago to remove the triple punishment of a penalty, red card and suspension. If you're in the box, judged to be genuinely challenging the ball and you're the last defender then it's only a yellow.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter. Australia! It's been a great day for the country all round.

Missed that, cheers. Old man El Triggso will need to adapt to the modern era.

Even with that updated interpretation, however, did he go for the ball? I just thought he kicked a bloke onto his arse rather than see him score.

I used to work with a guy that refereed in 2world cups. Will ask.

Correct me if I'm wrong but if you are one on one with the keeper and get fouled is it not an instant red?
Did I miss something??

While Tasmania was a definite yes, it's interesting to see the overall results and how the more built up areas are all overwhelmingly yes and it grows weaker the more you get into the more rural country sections.

There are jokes to be made about the proclivities of folks from western and north-western Tas, but I won’t be the one to make them this time.

I have been crying on and off all day.

So happy for you. Is a wedding on the cards?

We did a surprise commitment ceremony at my 50th with all our friends and family a few years ago, and honestly don't think we could top that, so probably not. My tears are more because this vote got turned into a survey of whether it is all right to be gay in Australia, all right for couples to hear their love and relationships are seen as equal, and all right for kids to be told all that. It will mean so much to so many people for such a long time.
