It is interesting to see that most of the Asian players are better athletes than the A-League players. Throughout most games this year the Asians have been able to out jump the A-Leaguers when going for headers even though they are shorter. The tend to be faster than the A-Leaguers and have more skills. Is it just that our better players are overseas or that they have had their leagues running longer and therefore the players are more professional eg. fitter.
You are right. I would've thought that with so many sport around for kids in Australia, we would generally be more athletic than other teams.
Suppose it comes down to professionalism though, and we lack that in domestic Football.

They had two goes at him, before police relocated him for his safety,and they came from all over the tier to do it. Sickening behaviour.
