i just saw a bit of ten's late news. it started off, as predicted, with australia's shattering loss to italy in this morning's sudden-death match.


this is what the socceroos were like before the match.

and then this....

yes, we are all pissed off at how that italian dude 'tripped' over neil.

it was a professional fall man. i mean, look, the italian's have had practice.

XD. [btw, that's staged]

anyway, what amused me was that after about 6 million news items about the soccer, the players, the families of the players, the people watching the soccer, the coach, the future of individual players, kewell's ankle injury, viduka's next step..... etc etc.... there came a news item about australians watching the match in iraq.

turns out 22 people were killed in a targeted bombing over there, and this was reported after all that soccer news.

yeah, we know where our priorities lie.
