Goodbye Poppa, Workhorse, Spider and Heartbeat ... hello B-Chump.
After 88 minutes of frustration, RBF favourite Tony Popovic looked to have landed a dream retiree goal to give the Socceroos a deserved win against an uninspired Paraguay.
...Until a ridiculous injury-time blunder by "A-leaguer come good", Mickey Beauchamp, gifted a result back to the South Americans.
So, the four veterans didn't quite get the send-off they would've liked. But it seemed a fitting farewell, in that nothing has ever come easy to these 'Roos and it gives them a parting taste of all the heartbreak they have become accustomed to throughout their careers.
On the bright side, it was only a friendly, and if it teaches poor B-Chump not to act like a twit in his own penalty box in the Asian Cup, it will be a valuable lesson indeed.
So, bring on Bahrain next week ... but first bring back that young gun, Travis the Dodo. I likes the look of him (good nickname too).
