Only been here two hours and bumped into Jason Roberts, Vince and Keef down in Darling Harbour. Asked them why they weren't in bed and they said they were staying awake today (they got in at 6am) and getting a good nights kip tonight. Jase is very friendly, asked him to bang one in tomorrow for us, other half was chuffed to bits at getting a pic with them.

For all the fans down under, Rovers will confirm in due course, a chance to see the players train (Keep a look out on our Website for more details). Merchandise will also be available to purchase outside the stadium.

The full squad for the tournament:

Brown, Bunn, Robinson;

Chimbonda, Givet, Hanley, Jacobsen, Jones, Nelsen, Salgado, Samba;

Andrews, Diouf, Dunn, Emerton, Grella, Hoilett, Linganzi, Josh Morris, N'Zonzi, Olsson, Pedersen;

Kalinic, Rigters, Roberts.

Not much surprises there. Fielding hasn't been able to surpass Brown or Bunn. Khizanishvili was left back as reported. Josh Morris was taken with instead of Gunning, Judge, Doran or Marrow.

Captain Ryan Nelsen and midfielder Brett Emerton have linked up with the rest of the squad Down Under in Sydney, but like Lars Jacobsen and Vince Grella, neither are expected to start against

All four players could feature at some point, but that would likely be as second half substitutes.

Of the 25-man squad here in Sydney, Chris Samba (knee), Niko Kalinic (thigh) and Martin Olsson (knee) are doubtful for Rovers' opening match of the tournament, but Jason Roberts has recovered from a knock picked up in training.

Thought Branco may have made the squad, looks like he won't be earning a contract

Good to meet Sydney Rovers, Rover Down Under and some of the other lads in my fleeting appearance at the pub last night. Was surreal to me, as someone who has never been to Ewood, to listen to some of the English lads talking about life back at Ewood.

Looks like there are about 50 people in the ground for the 1st game, and that's for the Sydney team

It's because 50 thousand Rovers supporters picked up the rest of the tickets...

So one point per goal? That's Rovers bottom of the table then!!

According to the TV coverage, Rangers are playing- nothing said about Rovers so far.

Anyway I have found out that Rangers have not signed a player for 2 years and are on the edge of going bust. There are only 13 Rangers player there.

We are 4-5-1.

I'm beginning to wonder why I've got up at such a time on a Sunday morning to watch Rovers!
