Lewis Miller is named in the Socceroo team to play Saudi Arabia in Melbourne in a crucial World Cup qualifier kicking off soon.

Martin Boyle doesn’t even make the bench.

No word so far on any injury, but guess we’ll know in an hour or so.

New Aussie coach in charge so could be part of a cunning plan for the Bahrain game in a few days, or maybe he just prefers others🤷*♂️

The Australian management team won’t just be picking guys without keeping an eye on performance and form.

I’m not surprised they’ve looked at Boyle decided leave him out.

Miller must count himself lucky to make the team though - is his a position Australia are short on options?

Makes you wonder what the point is in Boyle travelling all that way.

Miller has deficiencies defensively but he is young, tall, quick, strong and from an attacking perspective gives them/us an outlet, as well as his long throw. They are playing him as a wing-back today.

The Oz No 10 is very one footed but looks a decent player.

I see Josh Nisbet who many wanted us to sign hasn’t made the squad.

Seen him a couple of times since he signed for Ross County and he’s looked distinctly average.

Hrustic- was very good with Groningen and got transfer to Eintracht Frankfurt
when he scored a penalty in Europa league final shoot out v Sevco .
Also played with Josh Doig in Italy
Not reached the heights predicted

Looks like a decent stadium - even with the distance behind the goals.

My aussie mate is watching it, says Miller is having a brutal first 45.

It’s great stadium - rapid fire beer service .
Been a few times. It’s not a big distance behind the goals iirc .
Maybe the rapid fire beer service affects the memory though

Mate,

‘Distinctly average’ is a level above us at the moment.

I’ve seen him worse - several times this season

To be fair, it's mostly a standard Lewis Miller for Hibs performance, beaten very easily a couple of times , one classic Lewis Miller fall over (no foul given again..) , a long throw or two and a couple of decent touches.

It might be but Nisbet certainly isn't

We done the right thing going nowhere near him. He’s a bottom end Scot Prem player at best.

:agree:

The way people want on you’d think he was the second coming of John McGinn. He’s guff.

Another example of how rotten that league is and anyone who stands out in it shouldn't be treated like the mega star some used to try and make out they were. But whenever you suggested it people would get offended by it for some reason.

Miller just played a great through ball which should have led to Aussies scoring.

I dunno about that. Mitchell Duke started up front. He's played 31 games in the Japanese league this season and only scored 4 goals. No goals in 12 games.

Because they play the likes of Indonesia and Bahrain whilst we’re playing Croatia and Portugal.

If Scotland had Australia's qualification route we would be at the World Cup more often than we have been for sure.

Just back from the game.

Miller played ok. SA were much worse that I expected. Made at least 2 big mistakes to lose possession in dangerous areas that should have cost them a gaol... But Aus jistseemed to fluff those chances

Aye, poor game overall.

Miller clocked my kids hibs top when he was waiting for an autograph at the end and goes "Nice top, Im definitely signing that"

Ps, the stadium AAMI park is indeed class
