"Socceroo" doesn't work all that well when one considers the rebranding taking place. "Olyroo" still works though... well, as much as it did before, anyway. Never was a fan of either of the nicknames, personally... but with time, they grew on you... much like a fungal infection. I think it's time that they changed the team names... but change them to what? "Footballroos" doesn't work for me... worthy of a forum discussion.

They were hideously embarrassing at the best of times, but are now totally redundant seeing as the sport has been rebranded "football" (100 years too late) in Australia. Stay tuned for the Footballaroos ... I wouldn't put it past 'em. Much like the Aussie strikers. Get it? They’ve got to drop the “Socceroo” and “Olyroo” tags, now.
