Of the 26 players in the Australian soccer team for the recent world cup a total of 8 played in the A LeagueMen's soccer in this country is lightyears ahead of where it was in 97-98. The Socceroos progressed to the knock out round of the World Cup with a team mostly made up of A-League players. In 1997 the Socceroos couldn't beat Iran to qualify for the World Cup.
Regardless you are conflating the performance of the national team with the sports domestic popularity, they are not the same thing
