As an Aussie R, it would be remiss not to add just a small bit on TV's stint as our national manager. He did quite well but memory tainted by failure to qualify for 98 World Cup. It was 1997, 1-1 away draw with Iran in front of about 100k, with young Harry Kewell scoring. Then from 2-0 up, and only with 15 mins to go in return leg in Melbourne, we gave away 2 cheap goals. El Tel made no subs in an effort to shut the game down that night. Always wondered why. I just remember the crestfallen silence. Bad night. TV then steered Australia to final of Confed Cup later.

Yep. Same for me here in Australia, where it has just gone 2am. No sound. |

Don't quite agree with London and Sinton. Huddersfield good value for the win. Lucky goal sure. But they should have been one up early on. And then, after our goal, the almost complete absence of goal threat from the Rs over the next 80 minutes or so. Richards shot about the only save their keeper had to make, along with one excellent defensive header from another Richards effort. Willock without influence, makes a big difference. And the more Chair tried, the less likely it looked. Quite remarkable. Defensive fragility from set pieces matched with toothless attack. Easily enough for Rs to lose to bottom team. |

Agree with this. Aussie fan, weekly listener to Open All Rs. Finney's best role is as super passionate fan and panel member. Always enjoyed David's moderation, now think Flo filling this role very well. Lucky to have her. And while Clive's writing is superior, his ranting is phenomenal. I wished I could have been in a position to buy a ticket to Reading so I could be denied by clowns and then outraged. Great stuff. And lucky to have this podcast. Hate to lose it. |
