No representatives from WA, Tas or NT.

 

[burge13]

Behich out of Vietnam game due to a snowstorm in Turkey.

He isnt good enough anyway imo. Not that we having many great LBs banging on the door but id prefer give others a chance over someone we know isnt up to it

 

[gaskin]

No representatives from WA, Tas or NT.

Sainsbury is from Perth.

 

[peternorth]

Sainsbury is from Perth.

i missed that

 

[GOALden Hawk]

Joel King debuts at LB. Surprised Leckie is starting, hasn’t exactly been setting it alight for City.

Weather feels like HCMC! Need to score early to open the game up.

Interested to see King as haven't seen him play before. Is Elder injured? Was surprised when he wasn't named in the squad.

I'd prefer McGree over Leckie but Leckie is one of the favourites so not surprising. Hopefully Hrustic starts when he's back.

Glad Karacic is starting over Grant.

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Sitting in the stands behind the goals and I am sweating. It is as humid as all get out. The Vietnamese supporters are out here in force and loud, which is great. Good to get some atmosphere

 

[Dixie Flatline]

Loved the bloke rocking the El Salvador football jersey in the trivia quiz pre match.

 

[And_ROOS]

No faith in Arnold however since he isn't at the ground maybe we don't **** this up. We had the chance to lock in auto qualification and have bottled it and have to hope Japan's form has fallen apart.

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

****ing huge crowd!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Scored 20 seconds in!!!

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Edit: off side.

 

[gaskin]

Bullshit. There is no interference.

 

[And_ROOS]

Do they not show the how it was offside?

 

[Tony Lynn 15]

Do they not show the how it was offside?

They just did. Jackson Irvine off side and in the goalies line of sight.

 

[omgfridge]

Do they not show the how it was offside?

They're saying Irvine was in the goal keepers line of sight.

The angle from behind the goal shows that wasn't really the case...

 

[And_ROOS]

So you go to VAR for that 'offside' but no VAR for a massive shirt grab?
Quality officiating so far.
