Collis Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Yeh, he didn't get selected in the initial squad. Hopefully a few injuries in the Aussie team will see him play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedTop Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 Yeh, he didn't get selected in the initial squad. Hopefully a few injuries in the Aussie team will see him play. ← Yes, because we've got a long fallow period with very few games coming up, so he'll be needing 90 more minutes.

I wouldn't mind if he had to sit out of 1 or 2 games in order to play international football and become a better player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nogbad the Bad Posted November 15, 2004 Report Share Posted November 15, 2004 The Aussie match is in the UK I have heard - whats wrong with that? ← Nothing. It would be quite normal for England to play a home game in game in Australia as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest zider_head Posted November 16, 2004 Report Share Posted November 16, 2004 ok done a bit of reaserch here basically up to now wilkshire has been playing for the under 23's as he did at the olympics, he has 2 caps at full international level both against the soloman islands, he is yet to score for the full team. He was made captain of the under 23's see the story below :- http://www.australiansoccer.com.au/public/...2&menuItemID=89 Below is the side they used @ the pylmpics :- 1. Brad Jones - goalkeeper (Middlesbrough, England) 2. Jade North - defender (Perth Glory, Australia) 3. Shane Cansdell-Sheriff - defender (Aarhus, Denmark) 4. Craig Moore - defender (Rangers, Scotland) 5. Jon McKain - defender (National Bucuresti, Romania) 6. Adrian Madaschi - defender (Partick Thistle, Scotland) 7. Ahmad Elrich - midfielder (Busan, South Korea) 8. Luke Wilkshire - midfielder (Bristol City, England) 9. John Aloisi - forward (Osasuna, Spain) 10. Tim Cahill - midfielder (Millwall, England) 11. Alex Brosque - forward (Feyenoord, Netherlands - on loan to Westerlo, Belgium) 12. David Tarka - defender (Nottingham Forest, England) 13. Carl Valeri - midfielder (Inter Milan, Italy) 14. Brett Holman - forward (Feyenoord, Netherlands - on loan to Excelsior, Netherlands) 15. Anthony Danze - midfielder (Perth Glory, Australia) 16. Spase Dilevski - midfielder (PSV Eindhoven, Netherlands - on loan to Rot-Weiss Essen, Germany) 17. Ryan Griffiths - midfielder (Newcastle United, Australia) 18. Eugen Galekovic - goalkeeper (South Melbourne, Australia) Intresting to see most players play in europe with alot playing in england and scotland. Another piece of useless info I'm not sure all of you would know is that Christian Vieri (intermilan and italian forward) is infact australian and if you see him interviewed he has the most weird australian come italin accent, he left auss around 16 i think. anyways that my lot, it would do lee good to be involved but i wouldnt really want to see him playing 90 mins to be honest.

Rugby League, Rugby Union, Aussie Rules, then Soccer as its called downunder. That is why the best Aussie players come North for the better money and recognition.
