We all know of the many hardships football has had to face in this country and we will not dwell on the past in this post as we have in others. Needless to say, Australia’s national football team wasn’t always as successful and well run as today.

The Socceroo squad depth has developed considerably under Holger Osieck. Although Australia remain reliant on an experienced core, a number of players have staked successful claims to berths in the squad and team. This analysis is based on a back-four.

An agreement has been reached and now all Matt McKay needs to complete his move to Scottish giants Rangers is a work permit. He should get one on appeal, so the question for Brisbane Roar is how they can replace not only McKay, but also Kosta Barbarouses and Jean Carlos Solorzano.

I think it is time that all fans of the old NSL (and I was one of them) come back to Australian football, or more specifically the A-League. It is worthwhile returning if only for one reason – to see the Brisbane Roar play.
