That was frustrating with those soft goals. I don't totally blame Woud for the 2nd goal but put your laces through it boy!
We really missed Reid in the 2nd half to marshall the defence, and NZ tired badly in the heat.
In the second goal the defender should have never put Woud in the situation he found himself in. We created enough chances to win. So disappointing

Yep. Needed that 3rd goal. The Wood free kick, a better cross from Ingham to Wood, etc.
I've never heard of the other 2 GKs in the squad. Sail is too old.

Oli Sail is the excellent keeper for the Phoenix. Unfortunately he is 25 so they probably already had their allotment of senior players

@canefan Wood, Reid and Boxall are the over 24 yr players.
Yeah so they couldn't take Sail as well right? Woud gets beaten near post (cardinal sin), has a big gaffe with his defender in the second, and couldn't get close to a seemingly soft deflection in the third. No one will be buying him beers at the village tonight

Australia winning the Hoopyballs against Nigeria by 14 with just under 4 minutes to go. It is shit to watch, even for basketball IMHO.
Australia smashing India 4-zip in the hockey at halftime.
Australian womens 4x100 free break their own WR and finish 3s ahead of everyone else.
That's it. All I've got to say.

Ash Barty went out in the first round today. Probably going through the motions after the toll taken from realising her childhood dream of winning Wimbledon

Considering she was fortunate to last through to win Wimbledon physically, I don't think anyone would have thought less of her if she chose to withdraw

I know I'm old, but Channel 7 has 4 FTA channels, and only 2 showing Laff-a-limpics.
Really don't feel the need to flick through an App.
Can't we go back to the model they had for 2012 in Lodnod where 7 took the pick of what they wanted, SBS showed the Euro centric sports (soccer, handball etc), and Fox had 8 channels of everything happening.

Just seen the goal highlights. Village keeping indeed.
Oly Whites are the new Black Caps.
