How well do you think the Socceroo's will do this World Cup? I understand that they are not a legitimate threat at all to win, but how far do you think they can possibly advance (realistically)?

They'd be overachieving to advance from group play.

If Harry Kewell plays they can go pretty far. Fat McDonald will also be fun to watch, if only to see how far offside he is at all times.

Well they are in the same group as Serbia, Ghana, and Germany. So to advance like they did 4 years ago would be an unexpected surprise. If they make it to the round of 16 they would be paired with the winner of group C (England, USA, Algeria, or Slovenia). I don't see them getting past the round of 16.

Not unbeatable if Kewell plays.

Without Essien they will be a major disappointment.

I could easily see Australia doing a 3 and out

Me too, but I wouldn't be surprised to see them in the quarters.

Same here. Depends on the injury situation in the group, and how many times Fat McDonald is offside.
