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..

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.

    • Possibly avoid using a Cometic one unless the deck/head surface are perfectly flat. I did have a look just then and forgiving gaskets such as Tomei or Nitto don't exist for the FJ20, however the Bar-Tek or Kameari ones look good and might do the trick.
    • Because pipe threads for pipe things. M threads for bolt things. Throw some teflon sealant onto it and dust your hands off knowing you did the right thing, instead of going twice around the block to achieve a result using the wrong things. Of course, all of these solutions are ignoring the fact that the minimum thread pitch we're talking about here is 1.25mm, with the 1/4" in NPT or BPS being out around 1.4mm. You will need to know that the boss you're tapping has enough thickness for at least a few threads. That's one of the reasons that 1/8" is commonly used - because the pitch is <1mm. And why would you look to use 1/4" NPT in a BSP country anyway? Ugh.
    • Just throwing around ideas, does it need to be in the compressor cover? Why not the hot side piping?
    • 1/8NPT drill size = 8.7mm. Since the hole got messed up by me, it’s probably around 9mm.    So 1/4” NPT would be next step. A drill size of around 11mm would be preferred there which is not way of my M12 (drill 10.5mm and tap M12 threads)
