Jacob Chapman: From mascot to keeper
Goalkeeper, St Mirren (Scottish Premiership), 25 years old.
If Sydney's Jacob Chapman gets on the field tonight it won't be the first time he's walked onto the pitch with the Socceroos.
When Chapman was 5, he was a mascot at the Sydney Football Stadium for an Asian Cup qualification match against Kuwait.
"I walked out with Travis Dodd," Chapman told the BBC.
"We won. I can't remember who it was against, I was so young.
"My mum actually just sent me the video of it today."
Chapman was obviously a lucky charm — Dodd scored the first goal of his international career in that game, becoming the first known Indigenous goal scorer for the Socceroos.
The 25-year-old's journey to the Socceroos has seen him ply his trade for Sydney United and Marconi domestically before setting off to Europe, with spells at Huddersfield Town, Ossett United, Gateshead, Salford, Rochdale and Crawley under his belt before a move to Scotland with St Mirren.
There he has played seven times in the Scottish Premiership for the Saints, keeping two clean sheets in the process.
St Mirren are on a three-game losing streak at the moment though, the most recent reverse a 3-0 thumping at home by Dundee United, following narrow defeats against the Old Firm.

Why don't we meet them?

Hello everyone and welcome to tonight's special international friendly clash between the Socceroos and Brazil in Townsville!
My name is Simon Smale and I am looking forward to taking you through all the action as it unfolds up in the tropics today, as well as Tuesday's second clash in Brisbane.
There is nothing as evocative in the beautiful game as the vibrancy and colour of the Seleção and their supporters.
The history, the flamboyance, the jogo bonito, ah it's an elixir that makes it impossible not to fall in love with the sport.
I have been fortunate to watch games in Brazil before and I can tell you now that it is simply intoxicating.
The atmosphere looks like it's been building up in the north of the state all week for this game, so who am I to deny us the chance to get into things nice and early?
