@the_aussie_game @FootballAUS @aleaguemen @aleaguewomen @AusChampionship No we’re not 🤣

[Luke J @frayed_ends_]

@AU_YFM Interesting, what was your role?

[Luke J @frayed_ends_]

@millfieldsports Bulls are co-owned by Gino Marra, Sam Krslovic, Michael Gerace and Roy Mammone

@bw_youngy @Sachk0 👍

Everyone says the Socceroos went out because we didn’t attack. But we also didn’t lose in regular time because we didn’t attack. We punch above our weight by playing to our strengths. The one time we chased “entertaining football”, we got three entertaining losses.

2.65 - Australia's Patrick Beach prevented 2.65 goals this FIFA World Cup (2 goals conceded from 4.65 xGOT against), more than any other goalkeeper this tournament.

Lifeguard.

@QPRTravels @TheAustral61453 @CCMariners So you just hate women’s football? Got it, maybe don’t pretend it’s anything else

[Luke J @frayed_ends_]

@QPRTravels @TheAustral61453 @CCMariners Have you checked the state of the A Leagues, does the Men’s? 😂

Penalty wasn’t called for handball. #australia #usa #unitedstates #penalty #worldcup2026

They did this at the Women’s World Cup in Australia already. It started by making you peel off labels that didn’t belong to the sponsors and then they started confiscating all plastic bottles as the tournament progressed

Exclusive @TheAthleticFC

FIFA make last-gasp change to World Cup stadium rules: BANNING fans from bringing refillable plastic bottles, so fans must buy water in stadia

As of May, empty bottles permitted so fans could refill amid heat concerns. Not now

If they’d made the decision a month ago they could’ve gotten Xabi Alonso

If we’re going to clean house, best not forget about Mile, it can’t all be on the players

Calling him into camp and then not selecting him for the World Cup would be the most Popovic move ever

[CommBank Socceroos @Socceroos]

@simonhill1894 I think JJ said the same thing didn’t he?

[Luke J @frayed_ends_]

@FSAAustralia @Gatty54 Thanks for the great explanation. If the fix is in, that means someone in the voting pool outside the APL are backing the APL candidates. The questions are who, and why?

[Football Supporters Association Australia (Inc) @FSAAustralia]

A club-backed board. A $15M deficit. Govt funding at risk over gender quotas.

Football Australia's AGM on Thursday has real world consequences for football and the supporters on the terrace.

But who holds the cards and what does it mean for our game? 👉 https://t.co/843av8oFja

@WildcatsMark @footyindustryAU And yet almost no league globally has done it. If paramount + with the backing of Channel 10 can’t bring in subscriptions, how can the A League do it standalone without the marketing budget or expertise?

[Luke J @frayed_ends_]

@WildcatsMark @footyindustryAU But neither is going it solo. If you think they lack exposure now, imagine if no channel had a vested interest
