We break down the Socceroos’ “boring” style of play — is it actually a necessary evil, or are we holding ourselves back? Plus, we chat about the shock loss to Venezuela and what it means heading toward the World Cup.

Speaking of which… we explore the potential World Cup groups Australia could land in and how scary (or manageable) those paths might be.

With the Australian Championship finals upon us, we look at why we think Victoria is about to DOMINATE — and which clubs from that competition could realistically step up and join the A-League in the future.

We also take a trip down memory lane to relive our first ever A-League game — the chaos, the nostalgia, the characters. And yes… we dive into the idea: does the A-League need dictators? If we were in charge, here’s EXACTLY what we’d do.
