Mark Viduka

The ‘V-Bomber’ has drifted entirely from the spotlight since retiring with reports he’s been on a boat off the Croatian coast for the past decade. In fact, he resides in Melbourne privately with his family, still regularly getting out to support his beloved Melbourne Knights.

Aurelio Vidmar

Former Adelaide United coach who left his job as boss at Thai club Bangkok Glass in July by ‘mutual consent’, but later cryptically tweeted a message citing the impact of “interference” on performance.

Harry Kewell

Currently under the pump as manager of English League Two club Crawley Town who are 17th in the 24-team competition. Previously worked as Watford’s Under-23’s coach.

Tony Vidmar

Spent almost a decade in coaching after his retirement in 2008, but was moved on as Joeys coach in August this year after an unconvincing four years in charge.

Ernie Tapai

Besides for criticising Robbie Slater in 2012 for comments about the 1997 Confederations Cup squad, we’ve not heard much from Tapai in recent times. Brief spell in coaching with Corio, now in business.

Graham Arnold

Currently head coach of Sydney FC who recently won the FFA Cup to secure all three Australian trophies. Heavily linked with the vacant Socceroos job ahead of the 2018 World Cup.

Terry Venables

Hasn’t worked as a manager since leaving Leeds United in 2003. Last heard he was working as a hotelier in Alicante on Spain’s Mediterranean coast with his wife.

Peter Hore

The serial pest, who halted play prior to Iran’s two goals in the final 20 minutes, ran for a parliamentary seat against Kevin Rudd in 2007. He lost but polled 2,200 primary votes.
