Just watched the Socceroos play out a pisspoor 0-2 loss to Japan, ending hopes of direct World Cup qualification. We've got a few playoff games to go through as an alternate - one against another Asian team, probably the UAE, and if we win that we'd have a South American team. But I guess we can probably farewell our Qatar hopes.
Outside chance our playoff game comes to be against Chile, which both excites and scares me in equal measure (for personal reasons).
