Whenever I hear commentators call Curaçao (pronounced "cure a sow") I think of Api. They might even hold Ecuador to a draw. Goalie has made 15 saves so far, one short of the WC record.

If Tom has not fallen over he would have taken Galvin's kick easily. Still think he's a better centre than FB.

This is not the same Penrith that annihilated the Tigers a couple of weeks ago. Their attack has been about as effective as the Turkish soccer team.

Both teams are missing heaps of key players. It's been a battle of attrition.

Game over.

The fates are against the Tigers. They finally play well and ever since they've been decimated by injuries. Reminds me Souffs last year - one injury after another.

Turkey's midfield has been strong but they have been let down by their shooting.

They were like a different team in the second half. Just as well, it could have gotten ugly.

I think the Yanks's FIFA ranking is too low and ours is too high. Their speed, pass accuracy, and ball skills have been too much for the Socceroos. The game feels kinda like Tigers v Panthers ...

Knights' passing chains are good. They look like a well coached team.

Watching Mexico v South Korea. Endless booing. It's as if they are playing in a bigger Leichhardt Oval and every South Korean player is Galvin.

I was surprised Ivan Cleary rested his star players for a tough match and brought them back for the Tigers. It seemed to me that Cleary wanted a final FU to the Tigers before he retires. So Riff flogged Tigers. When teams win that big, they relax and go into party mode and use their trick...

I reckon Marky Mark was missing Toia's service. Staggs not in the same ballpark skill-wise.

The only good thing about it is that Api didn't get injured and will be fresh.

Ponga with Cobbo totally schooled Staggs and Marky Mark. Our defence on the right was not Origin standard.
