Michael Lynch from Fairfax joins the boys in Kazan as we assess who's dead in the water for the Socceroos, what has to change before the Asian Cup - and what CAN actually change... and how?

This is also on video on our Facebook page if you want to see who and what we are talking about/to/etc! We take you through a day in the life of 442 in Russia and meet a few interesting characters along the way...

The loss was disappointing but the performance gave hope for the remains games. Here’s how we saw the French game, and how we see things working out from here...

We meet one of the men who knows the new Socceroos coach intimately - Johannes Kapteijns, Dutch sports reporter with De Telegraaf - who spills some of the secrets behind the mastermind.

At a cafe outside the Socceroos training base, Kev, Clement and John assess the lessons from the Hungary game and Australia's arrival at their new Russian home.

As Kev is currently the only person who can speak semi-fluent English in Kazan ahead of the Socceroos and the rest of the press pack arriving at the weekend, he sends us a first person snapshot of life in the Russian city instead.

What constitutes success for the Socceroos at Russia 2018? And how will Bert van Marwijk actually go about delivering it? Special guest Lucy Zelic joins the pod to discuss that and more...

442FM welcomes FIFA whistleblower, former FFA Head of Comms turned Australian football book publisher Bonita Mersiades to the podcast for some insider chat on Socceroos - and World Cup bids!

Who got shafted in Bert’s 26 for the World Cup training camp - and who needs to shine to make it into the final 23? Who’ll score and what does Arzani offer? Adam and Kev are joined by two new faces on the pod – and we hear from Shane Smeltz and Tony Vidmar too.

How is Australia shaping up for Russia? Optus presenter and executive producer Richard Bayliss joins the team to assess how the Socceroos will do in Russia next month.

It might well by the skin of our teeth in the last 45 minutes of the second half and needed three set pieces from the captain... BUT WE'RE GOING TO RUSSIA – and there's plenty to discuss.

Fox Sports commentator Simon Hill joins us as we dissect the woes blighting Australian football, from the FFA congress crisis to Ange and the Socceroos, and the bid for a new second division. Oh and some football - and Simon's new book!

The Mariners coach comes in for a grilling as we also ask just how many broken legs can you expect in a weekend? It's been a rough and tumble start to the season and that not just on 442FM!

High power Perth star quality bolsters the Western Australian-flavoured pod this week thanks to chats with Matildas hero Sam Kerr and Central Coast Mariners star signing Daniel De Silva.

Ange's exit from the Roos comes under scrutiny plus we catch up with the Fox Sports crew, and we assess the stars, surprises and flops of the opening round of the A-League.

Daniel "D10" Capellaro is our special guest as the boys return in a new and improved format to assess Ange's legacy for the Socceroos, look at who's done best in the off-season, and find out more about D10's Australia side playing in the Mini Football World Cup in Tunisia this week.

The team is joined by Lawrie McKinna biographer Adrian Deans as we pick over the Socceroos and another round of reffing blunders in the A-League.

Adam and Kev are joined by Guardian cartoonist David Squires and For Modern Football funnyman Joey Crews to see just how much they've already forgotten from the weekend's games.

Roar are in second place, Sydney are running away with the league and the Mariners might be playing the best footy in the competition. Is this Armageddon?

The boys pick the bones of a spiteful few days of games, sanctions and citing as the A-League hits boiling point... and it's still only round 3.
