ref biased, defence is shit, best player says bye bye to this years world cup. 4-0 so far. at least we made it to the world cup...

Man it was a joke of a game. German midfield/defense is far to advance for anything pim verbeek can conjure. Socceroos are not a bad team, they just need a coach like Gus to make sure each player is playing the correct position. 4 -0 is a disgusting lost.

ref had nothing to do with it ... we cant blame the ref when the team sucks! the defence was absolute crap strikers lost az no excuses

agreed already with the defence. but there was a few offsides that werent called and that handball... that penalty couldve helped us. at least it couldve been 4-1 making us look slightly better? nehhhh it was a jk.

I just watched the replay.... All the socceroos except maybe holman emerton and cahil look f**ked fitness wise. They gave the germans SOOOOOO much space! FFS.... Underdog mean go close them down every opportunity and get some fkn hard tackles in (if they dive, make sure you get them fkn hard). Cahill red card was a joke. Schwarz didn't have a good game either.

In general, socceroos all too fkn old.

Milligan in for Moore...

Bresc has extensive experience playing for Palermo and Parma in Serie A.. One of the most defence orientated leagues in the game, have him sitting in with Grella and/or Culina acting as a holding midfielder to shore up our defensive structure.. Holman to replace Cahill, and the Rook with Kennedy as dual strikers, a combination of speed and height up front, with Kewell sitting on the bench as an impact player.. With Emerton providing pace and supply via the wing, as he always does, and does well..

the only reason we made it to the world cup is bkoz of our region and the teams we went against to get there,we only played off against half decent teams to get in...if we had quality opposition we would of been knocked out a lllllong time ago...im a proud ozi but fu** do we suck at soccer and the 3 or so decent players we do have cant win games by themselvz..we should stick to the international sports we are good at like cricket n rugby etc..annnnywayz good luck to em

I disagree, we don't suck and we have some very good players. The players that lack natural talent make up for it with hard work and enthusiasm. Our problem is the coach. Games are won and lost in the tactics that the coach uses, and he has to use tactics that suit the players he has at his disposal... Pim failed at that miserably. Just because Tim Cahill is a great player doesn't mean he can play anywhere on the park. He was wasted up front. Everything about Verbeek's tactics were terribly wrong, and they have been wrong ever since he took over.

4 years ago nobody was saying we sucked at football. In fact, right up until Sunday night, people were still expecting us the Socceroos to do well. Germany are one team that could completely expose every single on of Verbeek's mistakes and make us look stupid.

Switzerland on the other hand, that is an example of what you can do with excellent coaching and enthusiastic players...

i for one hope that the ozzies destroy ghana

They won't, Pim left all Australia's strikers behind :)

My hope is that Germany dented their pride enough to spur them onto a 1-0 win. But my prediction is a 1-0 win for Ghana. Australia won't score more than 2, probably won't score more than 1, and that is if they score at all. They simply don't have the firepower. Their only hope is to keep a clean sheet and hope to steal a goal.

Who else was there though? Aloisi? Too old and not good enough any more surely?? Thomson?? I mean seriously what do we have up there??

McDonald.

And bringing along Thomson would not have been a bad move, at least it would have given us someone to bring off the bench. As it is, we literally have two strikers, Kennedy and Nikky. Neither of which are prolific, and only really have the ability to do damage to teams if they are partnered up front together, in which case we have no strikers to replace them off the bench if need be.

In a World Cup squad, you need at least 4 out and out strikers. If you don't have that then you don't have the necessary depth, simple as that.

      Why am I hitting a power wall with my stroked RB25?

      By TurboTapin · Posted

      I couldn't agree more. I should have started from the get-go with a NEO or solid bucket conversion. I started looking into converting over to solid lifters yesterday. Now for some reason I was always under the impression that when using the Tomei solid lifter conversion, you would also require new valves (Longer or shorter stems, I can't remember which).  But I see no mention of this on any of the Tomei documentation. It just states I need the Tomei solid buckets, solid lifter cams and upgraded springs. As my head is already built, all I would need is another set of 1000$ Kelford cams, 500$ buckets and about 4H hours of my time installing and I'm off to the races!?!? There's no way it's that simple, I must me missing something?

      "Cheap" bolt on turbo on RB25DET NEO

      By Kapr · Posted

      @Murray_Calavera iam just considering options 🙂 of course it is very expensive so that why i ask here 🙂  @joshuaho96 I looked at that GCG hybrid(i remember looking at it few weeks before) So this is "that" hybrid where i send them my turbo and they upgrade the inside to Garrett stuff and then they send it back. It cost around 1200-1300 USD which is FAR cheaper than the HKS and it is what iam looking for(i just do not have experience like this...to send something off to "upgrade" ) @tylink720 that is like 150 USD turbo no? 😄 I dont think i have the "ease on my mind" with this kind of turbo. I just put over 7000k USD to "LINK" up my engine...dont want to blow it up with cheap turbo 😄     EDIT: https://www.cj-motor.com/gcg-turbo-charger-for-nissan-rb20det-rb25det-high?srsltid=AfmBOooVeOZ6CZ6r1AIv5m-KPaa6BvudIPJTY8LW78khkd-gQlsaCht9 I looked at this and it seems ok? It is that CGC hybrid and it costs around 1250 USD (with back shipping). Do any of you have experience with this hybrid on NEO turbo? I quickly look thru the forum/web and it seems very good.
