ADP/Heskey awesome but what about our Aussie(s)?

The Sydney crowd for a football game, over 35,000, was massive and you just knew Del Piero would get THAT free-kick on target.

How many times has he taken that free kick in his life. Most players send their first 20 into row Z, ADP simply buried it.

Down the other end Emile Heskey showed a different physique and style but one equally entertaining to watch. His control also mesmerising at times for a big fella under pressure and the ball way off the ground. And a nice goal too.

But while we were all drooling at what the little 37 Italian can do with a mere movement of the hip, it was an Aussie who took my eye.

Craig Goodwin.

Arrogant, don't you love the best players arrogance, pacy, strong and skill.

What a season this guy will have. And what an asset to have in your team.

And later we saw Ben Halloran another Aussie, on fire. And he's only going to improve once the Roar players realise what an outlet they have in front of him.

A Matthew Leckie with more skill?

Brisbane were brilliant. Halloran will take this team to new heights this year. The pace!

But it's equally interesting watching a Champion Coach like Ange Postecoglou coming to terms with what he wants and is trying to achieve.

Last night there was little evidence his team had done anything pre-season!
