I just can't help but think how pathetic Australia would look in this if it wasn't for AUFC!

And to think - we had to qualify to get in!

For future ACL, Adelaide should get an automatic spot for being Adelaide, and the other A-league spot can go to whoever wins the grand final.

Only seems fair.

Considering Muscat came out and said MV aren't interested in ACL the last time they bombed out. Maybe we can at least have theirs if they ever qualify again!

Tokyo FC went down away to Guangzhou Evergrande and Kashiwa Reysol down away to Ulsan. Here ends the J-League participation.

From the quarters the East-West divide is over so our potential opponents are:
Al Ahli
Sepahan
Al Ittihad
Al Hilal
Bunyodkor
Guangzhou
Ulsan
