I agree, they can make it. But there will be some good competition in the later stages. I hope they adjust to the weather.

Socceroos will definately qualify for the second stage, will most probably qualify for semi-finals and could win through to the Final and from there any thing is possible...............bring it on.

Which is why I must question playing Uruguay in Sydney!

If you wanted to acclimatise, surely it would have been better to do it in somewhere like Tropical Queensland or Darwin - ok, sure you may not get such a large crowd, but I'd rather a smaller crowd now and the asian cup on the first attempt than losing in the semis because we're not fully acclimatised to playing in these conditions - which let's face it, NONE of the players coming from England/Europe would be used to!
