Interesting story. The Ozzies want to join Asia cos Asia gets 4 teams into the World Cup, whereas poor old Oceania has to send it's group winner over to South America for a play off, hence aguably the best team in that part of the world rarely gets to play in the World Cup finals.

Now if Wales could join Oceania they might even get somewhere
