Call me Chicken Little (I prefer Cassandra). No way they get out of the group. JJ needs to get the new broadcast deal done now. When they come 3rd or 4th in their group their popularity will plummet.

The girls are not anywhere tough enough to match the top teams except maybe Raso
Watch the Sweden v France euro highlights to see how physical the woman's game is now

One pass gets the whinger on the plane. How lucky. She owes Raso big time for scoring

She was terrible in game 1 but there isn’t much else to displace her. Is definitely a sub level

Van Egmond, yallop and Polkinghorne. 🤦🏻

She was in his preferred 13-14 players from WWC. Always on the plane.

Poor Courtnee. Hope they sorted out parking for her

Absolutely awful, absolutely tragic, totally intolerable. Listening to Brenton Speed commentate football again.

The only positive I can find is that I didn't get up at 3am to watch it.

Maybe a silly question but is there any reason why the olympic men's squad are under 23's but the Matildas dont seem to have that requirement?

 

[VonBowellski]

Something along the lines that FIFA want the mens world cup to be the pre-eminent men's competition or some such thing

No one on any post for both headers

The men’s game has the depth to be able to do that where the women’s game doesn’t so they get more relaxed rules.
