1. For all lovers of great Australian football.
2. Ange is a better National Curriculum than any document the FFA have ever handed out to Community
Coaches.
3. Ange plays the Aussie Youth, more often, more forward.
4. If you like movement, skill and tactics in football the Roar must win.
If you've ever watched the Brisbane Roar play - and most Aussie's don't have Fox Sports so will
never have seen them - they play to instruction, tactic and a tempo rarely, some say never, seen in
Australia.
There is many elements to their game but one is critical to Australian football development at all
levels.
Had to laugh on Fox Sports panel last night.
Stuart Houston, former Arsenal defender, is a commentator and discusses all things English
football. (Dead boring bit of the show and I normally switch off but last night I stayed for a
while.)
So when asked about the merits of Arry I can't write only add up dollars Rednapp for England he

Still be With Us Next Season" Tony Fernandes replied "If it happens I will be here and I'm sure all
the other will.
A bloggers role, in football, is perhaps simply to call and comment on things as they see them.
Free of entrepreneur "vision" or the paymasters check I can call it as I see it. Simple as
that.
For too long Australian football media has produced unscintillating football reportage.

Despite the loss last night the Melbourne Derby at AAMI Park was a great spectacle for Australian
football. What an occasion to have two rivals battle it out on the pitch, while off it the fans get
to celebrate the festive season supporting their team. One of the bonuses of the A-League being
scheduled in

Yesterday we saw the release of the players who will be involved in the 2012 MLS Combine. It was
quite the impressive list of 52 players and one that we here at Stumptown Footy will be pouring
over as we look for potential candidates for the Timbers #8 pick in the 2012 SuperDraft.
One thing to note is that this is not the full list of players that will be involved in the 2012
MLS SuperDraft.

Great weekend for the believers in young Australian football players, attacking players.
Bernie Ibini, Mustafa Amini, Demi Petratos, Mate Dugandzic just some of the young Aussies hitting
the net - and three of them are Under 20.
Laugh: Robbie Slater in his column on Sunday discussed how to beat the Roar - and he mentioned how
Sydney would miss THE PACE of Mark Bridge.
Tim, let's call a spade a spade mate!
Seems having seen this stuff promoted across Australia on every media set going I'd thought I'd ask
the question.
Is this Tim Cahill program really giving back to grassroots football?
Now we all know Tim is a great bloke, has great compassion for Australia causes and has been a
great role model for many both on the sporting and family field, and far be it for me to criticise
Tim, but does anyone else feel the, "I really want to give back to the grassroots" line is a great
big Scouse mickey-take.

They missed beating the greatest team in Australian football by four minutes in the Grand Final
last year - and even with a few Olyroos missing they still comfortably accounted for an in-form
Sydney FC.
Bernie Ibini-Isei has lifted the Mariners. Younger than McBreen more skilled than Matt Simon he's a
forward with an increasing goal threat.

The idea of community, however tangible or intangible, real or imagined, flourishes at the very
core of football. Without fans, football doesn't exist. Similarly, without readers, AFR would have
died a long, long time ago. Conversation is the greatest source of sustenence in the beautiful
game.

It's brilliant the lads have got us through the whole of the off-season and now they are starting
to fire. Harry, Holger, Socceroos, Olyroos, they are all over it - and the W-League as well.

We'll need a squad to see us through to Brazil, a big squad. So no problems for all you Tim Cahill
fans, he'll be there to the end.
But is Tim a certain starter in the Australian football team?
Not in my book - not anymore. Now before I get smashed by all you Timmaay fans let's take a look at
my reasoning.

Harry's impact, Harry's position, Harry's groin, Harry's wife, Harry's house, Harry's kid, Harry's
greatest goal, Harry's worst game, yes it's Harrytime plus Brett - did we forget Brett!

After a tiring, drawn-out saga, a contract has finally been signed, the dust is beginning to
settle, and the prodigal son is coming home. And no, I'm not actually talking about Cescgate.
That's right my friends, those of us living down under have had twice the transfer drama to keep
us on the edge of our seats this winter.

And answer to the quiz question: When did Harry first play in Thailand - no not in 2007 with
Arnie's Socceroos, or with Leeds but as an U13 with Marconi on his way to Europe for a Marconi
tour!
Harry Kewell the man who so nearly won the Asian Cup for Australia, in January 2011 is expected to
sign for Melbourne Victory for THREE YEARS tomorrow.
This is great news for football fans, for the A-League and Australian football.
The process may have been long and arduous but Australia's greatest player will return to Australia
at just 32.

Mariners leading the way in Community/Professional Football.
Can't see Canberra ever get it's stuff together in this area - basically no A-League team - no
franchise willing to move things forward.
Capital Football should not run Rep teams in a real football world - but for now they are the best
we have and do the best they can.

For most people the Matildas crashed onto the scene with "that nude calender" way back when; but
for the football community it was 2007 when they really made their mark.
Reaching the second stage of the World Cup in China in 2007 on the back of some exhilarating
displays made even those "football is a man's game" take a sideways glance.

team mates to defy the orders of the then Socceroos coach Pim Verbeek immediately prior to the 2011
FIFA World Cup game against Germany in Durban last year.
