At no point ever do I have any clue what Grosso is talking about.
But the fact you are attempting to clarify his statement is a big concern.

Is nationality decided by how many caps you have now?

German Mum, German Dad. Sounds pretty German to me.

Re: ENGLAND v AUSTRALIA

I have no issue with Cahill playing for Australia or Kewell due to their place of birth. By my reckoning, to be Australian you have to have Parent who was Australian at birth. So Cahill is not Australian, my kids are half Australian. Could say the same for Mark Schwarzer - which again is why he has...

Re: ENGLAND v AUSTRALIA

Kingswood stated that Cahill playing for Australia was not as ridiculous as Hargreaves playing for England. By blood lines, he's proven wrong, as Hargreaves has English blood, but Cahill has no Australian blood at all. In fact, Cahill has spent very little time in Australia, the majority has been s...

That's the same with 40% of the Australian population. Which has been the case roughly the entire history of Australia.

Re: Lady Reds Return to Adelaide United

Surely they would want to keep Harnwell? He's certainly got the runs on the board from his time at Perth?
Would be sad to see him booted from a second coaching gig over a change of management.
