The Socceroos are perfect as they are, with Georgie Parker
Australia are the last Asian team in the World Cup. And as we stroll around the temples in kumonos like Tom Cruise in the last Samurai, we revel in the ultimate success of having an unbelievably favourable draw and that we’ve got a guy at left back, cum right wing that has a body that is unbelievable to look at. Today’s show has a real World Cup focus to it as we dissect noise complaints outside of hotels, Dictator braces, penalty shootouts, coaches with their faces blurred out and look ahead to a game with the Egyptians.
