Compliments of the season everyone and welcome to Wanderland. n 27 years of covering sport i've been lucky enough to see some of the great contests between rival countries and clubs. I Cricket, Olympics and the other football codes have produced some wonderful rivalries around the world. The cross town showdown between my beloved NRMa insurance Western Sydney Wanderers and Sydney FC has grown into a fierce rivalry. Certainly it's a must see sports event for the family and we're here tonight at Pirtek Stadium as another chapter will be written. Credit must go to both clubs for developing and encouraging the rivalry. The RBB and the Cove are passionate fans. I love the walk from Church Street to Pirtek and walking into the intimate cauldron. When my wife and Seven colleague Chris Bath and I were approached by Wanderers Executive Chairman Lyall Gorman to become club ambassadors, we were immediately impressed. The community feel of the club was inclusive and embodied Sydney's sprawling west. The region needed a club that truly represented them whatever your culture and religion. We've been proud ambassadors since day one and we love match day. Women and children are welcomed and there are no airs and graces. it's a model every sporting organisation and club should follow. Bring on tonight, good luck Sydney FC but we sing for the Wanderers. Enjoy !

The RBB versus the Cove. Pride and Passion with bragging rights on the line. ven at fifteen months old the match-up between NRMa insurance Western Sydney Wanderers and ESydney FC stirs the emotions of those participating and watching like no other in the Hyundai a-League. Despite its relative youth as a fixture it feels like it has always been this way with the enmity between the teams and emanating from the stands almost visible. For pure theatre nothing matches the Sydney set-to as nothing comes close to the visceral emotions on display when the Sydney boys meet. For the supporters it’s not just about the football. Ever since Sydney FC snubbed the West by moving from its intended location of Parramatta Stadium to the Sydney Football Stadium the die-hard and loyal fans in the West have felt alienated towards their Sky Blue cousins. But not until the formation of the Wanderers was there an opportunity for this hurt to manifest itself into a support that eclipsed that of not just their local rivals but of any club in the competition. "...19,126 packed PIRTEK STADIUM TO ALMOST BREAKING POINT FOR THE FIRST EVER MEETING BETWEEN THE CLUBS ON 20 OCTOBER 2012" WSWANDERERSFC.COM.AU 10 at the end of an absorbing ninety minutes it was Sydney FC celebrating a maiden Derby success. The goal, as if the script hadn’t demanded it, netted in the 54th minute by star recruit alessandro Del Piero from the penalty spot. Referee Strebre Delovski hardly endeared himself to the RBB by awarding the spot-kick which the Italian maestro knocked in at the second attempt after his first effort had been chalked off for encroachment. By the time the pair met again the two team’s respective campaigns were heading in polar opposite directions. after winning at Parramatta, Sydney had claimed only seven points out of a possible 21 including suffering a humiliating 2-7 hammering from a gleeful and ruthless Mariners. In the same period the Wanderers had racked up four wins and looked in good shape heading into the encounter. another bumper crowd was eagerly anticipating the start of proceedings with 26,176 at allianz Stadium a massive crowd of 19,126 packed Pirtek Stadium as referee Chris Beath got the action under way. and to almost breaking point for the first ever meeting revenge was a dish best served cold for the Wanderers between the clubs on 20 October 2012. The Wanderers who came away from the fixture with a deserved 2-0 entered the match, only the third in their history, win that in reality could have been many more. Sydney still searching for an elusive first Hyundai a-League FC, struggling at the foot of the Hyundai a-League goal having drawn their inaugural match with the ladder, could not match the purpose and poise of the Mariners and losing narrowly away to adelaide Wanderers much to the delight of the travelling support. United. The Sky Blues meanwhile had surprisingly Youssouf Hersi opened the scoring for the Wanderers gone down in both their opening matches; losing midway through the first half capitalising on a mistake comically to Wellington Phoenix before being by Sky Blues defender Seb Ryall who failed to deal out-gunned in a five-goal thriller by the Jets.

  • Football Federation Australia
    Football (Soccer): Football Federation Australia “I’d argue with kids at school and they all were convinced that rugby league was the most popular world sport. That shows how isolated Australia was. Soccer had to be introduced by migrants. We’ve come a long way.”1 Brazilian Ambassador once wondered whether Australians had a linguistic or an anatomical problem, since they seemed to reserve the term ‘football’ for games in Awhich the players predominantly use their hands.2 Such is the seeming contradiction in Australia where the term for the game played with the feet is called soccer and football (which is rugby league, rugby union or Aussie rules depending on where you live) is played mostly with the hands. Football is no longer the poor cousin of the ‘big four’ national sports in Australia – cricket, rugby league, Australian rules football and rugby union. Following the 2006 FIFA World Cup, the game has finally come of age in Australia and is starting to seriously challenge the other sports for spectator, sponsor and media support. Tracing football’s roots Playing a ball game using the feet has been happening for thousands of years. Early history reveals at least half a dozen different games, varying to different degrees, which are related to the modern game of football. The earliest form of the game for which there is reliable evidence dates back to the 2nd and 3rd centuries B.C. in China. Another form of the game, also originating in the Far East, was the Japanese Kemari, which dates from about 500 to 600 years later and is still played today.3 However, it is almost certain that the development of the modern game took place in England and Scotland.
