Speaking from his hotel, Nikolai said,
Speaking from his hotel, Nikolai said, "I don't know if I'll start, but the signs are good. And there is no other left back in the squad."
Topor-Stanley would have watched Kewell playing for Leeds United and the Socceroos many years ago. Tomorrow he is expected to be supporting him up and down the line.
What if Harry doesn't pass you the ball whem you overlap?
Topor-Stanley laughed, "I'll just say nothing and run back."
"I'll have good support from Canberra. My mum has flown over for the game, she still lives in Canberra," said Canberra's latest Socceroo.
and who knows he may, just may, be off to China next week for the World Cup Qualifier. Watch this space!

Good luck to the youngster. I hope he will get a starting spot. Pity we couldnt hold on to him at Sydney FC as he is one of the best young defenders in the A-League
yeah and in true spirit of Canberra no mention of his debut in today's paper....
local boy playing for Socceroos not newsworthy I guess
and did you know he was in the same Under 11 Tuggeranong United Junior side as Carl Valeri...and the coach was Walter Valeri, Carl's Dad.
