Looks like Benito Carbone is wanting to make a return to the A-League with Adelaide United.

I understand he is a big name and can attract crowds. I feel though his impact with Sydney FC was limited and if I was Adelaide I would not make the same decision. I think I would be looking for a Brazilian. They seem to be making all the right moves in the A-League.

Read the article and make up your own mind I say!

Its not often that the Matildas make the news. I don't know why. I think if football is to be strong in Australia there should be more news about the Matlitas. They are a strong team and I think there are good things coming for them.

Oh well. This article talks about some of Australia's most capped players. Have a read. Good Stuff.

Looks like some of the Adelaide players are having a dig at the ref. With that and their coach's actions, they are showing a distinct lack of discipline.

Maybe if they had better control of their emotions and more composure they wouldn't have been thumped 6 zip. They are proving to be worthy of the loss.

Now this is and awesome performance. Melbourne really showed everyone what they are capable of. They also showed Australia how good Aussie Football can be.

I must admit, I am partial to Melbourne as it will be my new home town very shortly. Good time to jump on the bandwagon I guess!
