4 ZIP - Great score. 

And can I just say "Great head, as always, from Josh Kennedy"

Disappointed that OUR Mile didn't get a run, but it won't be long......

(& just quietly, what is it with Scott (NUTHIN) McDonald, can bang in a thousand for Club, SCOTT NUTHIN for Country!!!!

He does play in Scotland y'know....... that's the Scottish Premier League.  A hybrid XI of the worst of Perth Glory and the NZ Knights could win that thing.

I picked the 4-0 score at 17-1 odds, the guy at TAB said I was crazy, it was pouring rain etc ahaha. And picked Cahill to score first to boot, but that was a given right? ;)

We are the only AFC team out of both groups to have not conceded a goal and the only team to have won two matches / be on six points, and we have a game in hand over some others. Life could only be better if Mile or Matt Simon had gotten a run tonight.

Good win with 10 men (McDonald doesnt count for us).

Yes, Qatar were crap but you have to beat whats in front of you.

Crowd was good for a "no name" opponent and we are another step closer to 2010

Viduka struggled to score for Aus while he was in Scotland too, and copped the same type of critiscism. Wonder how Mcdonald would go in the A-League?

HAL is probably better than most of the SPL (take out the top 2) so I reckon he would be the awesome force he is against Asia's dross. Rubbish.

Him, Lolman and Sterjovski are taking the piss.

Pim not using Mile off the bench - WTF?

My ticket says I bet at 6:17pm, so it must have firmed up. Unbelievable considering the rain. I bet your heart skipped a beat when at 4-0 Qatar had the chance right in front of goal toward the end, can't believe he put it over! Hope you had a lot of dollars on the bet :)

Only a few times Matt Simon didnt quite reach heart attack. The only better feeling than that miss by Qatar however is you scoring goals so keep up the good work!

Gotta say Scott McDonald played his role well last night. His job was clearly to run into the corners as we moved the ball up the pitch. This constantly created the space inside to do damage. The first goal was a good example - watch the replay. There he goes with his square run into the corner taking a defender with him, opening up the space for Carney, Kennedy and Cahill to do their thing.

I agree Brett! My MOM however was Jason Culina he was outstanding playing in the defensive midfield role helping Australia keep possession and playing great balls across the park and switching play. Grella and Valeri will struggle to get back in the def midfield role.

Where do you think the A-League compares? My view is bottom of the Championship of League 1 England. Or Top League in countries like Norway and Denmark.

On the English Football Pyramid I say Australian football is comparable with League 1 or with the bottom of the SPL, i.e. the bottom 6 clubs

Jaza is a Scouser.  Ignore everything he says about everything, ever.  It's just easier that way.  ;)
