But that was just a dream, That was just a dream, But that was just a dream, Try, cry, why try? That was just a dream ,Just a dream, just a dream, Dream

My entire life used to revolve around soccer (before i went under an injury cloud and had to quit for two years ) but what i loved most about the game is that i would have around 8 nationalities in one team (my under 20's side consisted of Vietnamese, Chinese, Colombian, Caucasion, Russian, Persian, Irish, Lebanese) To me that represents Australia better than any other sport, and thats why Soccer is Australias national sport (the media will catch up soon enough ) because as Paulie said you don't have to be a white-middle-class-tea-sipping-nancyboy-cricketer to be Australian
