There has been a dumping of rain on the east coast of Australia, but luckily Eric, Dale and Cheryl can talk underwater when football is the topic, so here is the latest!
Our intrepid trio discuss the wonderful atmosphere for Adelaide’s record-breaking game against the Wanderers. Cheryl also provides an update on the Olympic Games tournament, and Dale marvels about Claire Coelho’s goalkeeping. Meanwhile, Eric makes predictions that might annoy the Victory fanbase, as well as revealing that he got in touch with his feminine side when ordering a couple of Canberra United jerseys.
