Kewell and Emerton train for Australia ahead of World Cup

Three bits of news for Australian football fans today and while none of it is bad news or going to get you that worried about your chances in South Africa, it is a little interesting. The news all comes from quite an intensive two hour training session last night and seeing as we always like good news at the end, we will start with the not so good news. The not so good news is that Everton midfielder Tim Cahill and the one player the Australian starting eleven can not do without if they are to stand a chance of getting past Ghana, Germany and Serbia, only took part in light training and is still suffering form the neck injury he picked up in the defeat to the USA last week. The good news is that one time bright prospect Harry Kewell took part in training and Blackburn midfielder Brett Emerton also completed the two hour session. It's good news for Australia and it will be even better if Tim Cahill is fit to play. Without him, we are not so sure.
