Re: Olyroos Iraq have been hosting games for a while now in the North, so it's a safe as you get. It's probably just as safe as playing any other Mid East team on their own patch.

All A-League squad chosen for next few games: We play Iraq on Tuesday 22nd November before returning to face Uzbekistan at Parramatta Stadium five days later. http://www.footballaustralia.com.au...p-Puts-Olympics-On-The-Horizon-For-Dimi/42505
A tricky group to be in: Uzbeks, Iraw and UAE. All teams who have had success at junior level (17's and 20's) over the past few years.
Tied Uzbekistan 0-0 yesterday in Sydney. 3 more games to go we are third in the group with 3 points. Only one home game left and pretty much all 3 games are must wins now. Next games are in February.
I think second place is the realistic goal now, but from what I've seen so far we don't have a good enough team to do that in this group.
