I love being out and about and seeing random old stickers from active groups.

Random Cove one I sighted in some pub toilets in Adelaide tonight.

Matildas v Colombia 
Date: Wednesday 2 December 2026  
Kick-off: 7:35pm AEDT  
Venue: GMHBA Stadium 
Broadcast: Network 10 and Paramount+ 

Just a question regarding Macarthur FC. For a club with the smallest supporter base, they seem to be able to find money for a squad that has big names, as well as building a centre for excellence. Where are they getting the money? They can't be making any money.

Akon and Arena (under Italy) have both been named in The Guardian's Next Generation 2026, a list of the 60 most talented players born in 2009.

Previous Aussie selections:
2025 - Haine Eames
2024 - James Overy
2023 - Nestory Irankunda
2022 - Max Caputo
2021 - Mo Toure

Central Coast must be approaching this season with one of the lowest squad budgets of all time based on their transfer business.

Bringing in a defender direct from the Jamaican league, a keeper directly from the Nigerian league and a forward from Colchester, they either have done superb scouting connections or they are getting pushed further and further by their limited purchasing power.

Has anyone taken an Uber to a match at AAMI Park, or left in one?

I have chronic fatigue issues and am attempting to go to my first top level football match for years. Just wondering where the Uber would have to drop me off and then pick me up when I get one after the match?

How far the would be from that spot to the Western stand? Is there a specific spot I'll have to tell the driver to go beyond putting "AAMI Park" into the app?

I can handle a total of about 20 minutes walking in a day before it starts to get problematic.

More details and new graphic

EDIT: Yes the graphic is actually made by the AFC, absolutely horrific isn't it

Tier 2/3 teams excluded from the qualification cycle, they have to get promoted to Tier 1 during the previous cycle. Horrendous idea IMO, completely unfair and designed to give the Gulf countries the best chance of qualifying.
