Quick Top Fives

The 5 best and worst of Australia v Uruguay

The best

1. A terrific passing game with few long balls into the channels.
2. Nicky Carle's 'Emerson' maneuver on the ball.
3. Lucas Neil and Jason Culina stepping up with a flawless performance.
4. 62 000 people turning up to a 'friendly' vs 40 000 at a 'test match' in the ruggers.
5. Promise for a bit of depth in the National Team for Asia and beyond.

The worst
1. Two Brad Jones blunders that we all want to forget.
2. Nicky Carle's attempted scissor cross.
3. Aussie dead ball specialists or lack thereof.
4. The attempted 'tifo' at the home end as the teams ran out.
5. Diego Forlan's hairstyle.

Honorary mentions go to:

Best: The city rail worker on the microphone who told commuters making their way into the stadium that he has got a hot VL Commodore for sale.

Worst: Scott MacDonald as a lone striker up front - in fact....... anyone as a lone striker up front.
