Box2Box, with Rob Gilbert, Michael Edgley and Derek Dyson.
Four great Quarter Finals in the Australia Cup - Heidelberg threw away a golden opportunity against the Melbourne Knights, the Metro Stars were very stiff not to jag an upset against Melbourne City, Ross Aloisi announced his arrival as the new manager of the Brisbane Roar with a convincing win over the Western Sydney Wanderers and Sydney FC’s comfortable win on Sunday afternoon against Melbourne United rounded it out – Rob and Edge discussed it all and looked ahead to the Semis with ESPN’s and The Guardian's Joey Lynch
Box2Box has followed Leicester City as something of a talisman since we charted their title winning season in 2015/16 but as many things rise, they also fall and equally we covered their inexorable decline until the drop at the end of last season. And while winning the Premier League shocked the world, what is not so much a shock is how they're going about returning to the top flight with an undefeated start to the Championship under former protégé of Pep Guardiola, Enzo Maresca. Of course the Foxes start to the season has not been good for everyone at the club. No sooner were we glorying in the return of a current Socceroo to the EPL than they were relegated and Harry Souttar has been shut out. Rob and Derek discuss it all with The Athletics Rob Tanner.
The lads discuss the Matildas 2024 Paris Olympic qualifiers in Perth next month and the road to the 2026 World Cup to Socceroos matches in London against England and New Zealand, less than a month away...
