Jets to be tested. Our next Socceroo on show.
Nearpost football hosts Russ and Aaron are convinced the Jets will lose, nay get pumped tonight against the Pohang Denilson led Steelers in the Asian Champions League one-off last 16 game in Korea.
I'm not. I think they can win.
Either way watching Ben Kantarovski, Jason Hoffman, Tarek Elrich, Brodie Mooy, Mark Jesic, Adam D'Apuzzo, Kaz Patafta and Sean Rooney all young Aussies being tested on the continental stage is a joy.
And Gary Van Egmond has them playing football at times as well. Not half bad with young boys on such a big stage.
Why am I convinced the Jets can win? Because any team that can only beat the Mariners 3-2 can't be that good can they!
Could go to penalties, but win or lose watch Kantarovski. Our next Zelic, or Okon. He won't be in Australia for long so make the most of him, and when you see strutting around in the Bundesliga or Serie A you can say you saw him when he played for the Jets.
Go the Jets!

wouldn't be a jets fan, now..? anyway, i also rekkun a good a-league outfit will be a match for a korean one; but they're in the same period qua their season, aren't they - or will that perhaps prove a difference?
but yeah, go jets...
Ben will prob captain the socceroos one day. You heard it here first.
from the twg report on the game, thought that could be an issue:
"Without a competitive game since their last ACL group match five weeks ago, Newcastle looked off the pace against a team in the middle of its domestic campaign."
but six blot?? not what we were hoping for...
