Many call the Canadian Premier League a "bush league" compared to other top-flight professional football leagues.

But if I'm honest, I quite like it that way, as it reminds me of the old NSL in Australia - just minus all the racial violence and rioting from fans.

I wish they had established a women's league at the same time, though... the needs one to develop talent and be better prepared for the world stage.

Dear TSN,

Please shut the heck up about the “reigning champions” or the “Olympic champions” in your World Cup coverage.

Both are gone. Stop living in the past. We get a new champion.

It is good for the game.

Do the play by play announcers get a commission every time they randomly drop a mention of both teams in a game - even if they’re not playing?

I'm sure Canadians are very obviously disappointed that the did not progress out of the group stage of the

But then you realize that Germany, Brazil, Italy, China, and S Korea (all ranked inside the top 20) were also all eliminated, and you start to realize that this Womens World Cup is chaos and fun.

Also marks the decided rise of several new nations, which is only good for the game.

@urbanfuzzy we picked 6 generic
One group account that boosts all mentions @wwc
Then there’s the team hashtags
Then there’s the match tags which changes depending of which teams are playing. But if you block the 7 the account and those five main English speaking national team tags you should remove the majority of it from your feeds

What a great half of football by the Aussies!

The defence and flanks are finally clicking. There is a good flow to their game so far..

Keep going ‘Tildas!

Testing a hypothesis against absurdity...

But isn't the elbow of the defender playing the ankle of the attacker onside?

It's as if there is no technology but a graphic designer frantically drawing up the desired outcome on his laptop.

The rules of Soccer have been changed so much since I was a kid (e.g. GK 4 second rule, passback to the GK, etc.) that dealing with this nonsense can't be that hard.

Even Athletics ignores the limbs when judging whether someone has crossed the finishing line and they've used that common sense for centuries.

And an invisible force tilts the scales back in favour of common sense.

AUS 2-0

"Is that back leg of Ellie Carpenter in an offfside position?"

Are you kidding me? The rules of Soccer were never enforced like this until VAR came in.

This is getting silly.
