The international schedule kicked-off for Boro on Thursday when Riley McGree stepped off the bench for Australia against New Zealand in Brisbane.
It was the Socceroos final game on home soil before the Qatar World Cup and a first half goal from Awer Mabil settled matters against the All Whites at the Suncorp Stadium.
Riley, who hails from Gawler near Adelaide, came on as a substitute to replace Verona's Ajdin Hrustic in the 61st minute.
Our man did come close to adding a second for Australia just six minutes after coming on, but he fired over the top after a swift counter-attack.
2022 marks 100 years since Australia played their first international match, and three former Boro players were today named in the Socceroos 'Team of the Century.'
Mark Schwarzer, Tony Vidmar, and Mark Viduka have all been recognised for their contribution to Australian football by being named among their greatest players.
