The National Curriculum

Back-to-back wins for the Socceroos against New Zealand -- 1-0 in Brisbane and 2-0 in Auckland -- but what did we learn from it all? Are the Socceroos going to win the World Cup? Is Jackson Irvine going to have Kylian Mbappé quaking in his boots? Are Garang Kuol and Jason Cummings now locks for Qatar? Joey Lynch, Teo Pellizerri, Nick D'Urbano, and Josh Parish are here to break it all down.

Then, the boys take a step back, waaaaaay back, to look at the Socceroos' Team of the Century. Were there any snubs? Was anyone lucky to get in?

Then, Sokkah's wildest fantasies are set to come true thanks to the return of A-Liga Fantasy Football -- NFT free! Is it a good thing? Who are the bargains in the league? And who do the TNC crew have in their squads? All will be revealed.

Then, Joey's only gone and dropped another national second division story, this one an on-the-record chat with Football Australia James Johnson surrounding timelines for introducing the league. Joey breaks that down, pontificates on metaphysics and the nature of reality and then answers some of your questions on the proposed competition.

And as always, much, much more.
