Thought I'd send you a big hi as a myLot member living in Sydney. Great to see you giving a big shout-out to the Australian Top 6 Soccer Players of all time. I only show an interest in the sport in the lead up to the world cup although I know Tim Cahill went to Bexley North Primary School around the same time as my kids. Now playing with the New York Red Bulls Major League as well as the Australian National Team I believe.
More of a Rugby League and Rugby Union fan otherwise. As a Kiwi ex-pat I support the under performing Warriors as well as Sydney Roosters and of course I am a born n bred All Black supporter. Welcome to the community.
