Socceroos coach Holger Osieck has revealed he considered Australia withdrawing from the East Asian Cup because of reluctance by Asian clubs to release players including star striker Josh Kennedy.

Osieck on Tuesday named eight uncapped players in a provisional 24-man squad for the tournament, which kicks off on Saturday when the Socceroos play hosts South Korea in Seoul.

Nineteen of the squad are A-League players, while the other five - Kennedy, Robbie Cornthwaite, Matt McKay, Ryan McGowan and Erik Paartalu - are based in Asia.

But the final 23-man squad for the tournament won't be confirmed until 24 hours before the Socceroos' first match.

Osieck said that was primarily because Kennedy's J-League side Nagoya had denied his request to release the tall striker who fired Australia into the 2014 World Cup with his match-winning header against Iraq last month.

The Socceroos still hope Kennedy will be able to take part in the four-nations tournament also involving Japan and China, but Osieck said that was "up in the air".

"It's not a good situation and I don't accept it," he said.

"The foreign clubs, they created a lot of problems.

"I understand there's a formal issue, the games are not FIFA protected.

However, it's a kind of gentlemen's agreement between the participating countries ... that players from the respective leagues should be released.

"You have to honour those things."

Osieck conceded he momentarily thought about not competing in the event, which Australia was invited to play in for the first time.

"Normally, we have to be very frank, why should we go there anyway when we get discriminated (against) in a way?" he said.

"But after some internal discussion and in the spirit of fair play, we decided to go.

"Although the spirit of fair play is unilateral."

Osieck is also unsure whether Chinese-based players McKay (Changchun Yatai) and McGowan (Shandong Luneng Taishan) will be formally released.

Regardless, the national coach said his relatively young squad was a nod to the future and showed a lot of promise.

"I'm pretty confident there's a lot of potential in these guys," Osieck said.

"There are good elements in them which I see, which has to be nurtured, which has to be developed but you have to start at some point.

"I will see them on a decent level where they really get challenged, and I'll see if they are already in a position to properly step up or if they need a bit more time."

Socceroos squad: Mark Birighitti (Newcastle Jets), Joshua Brillante (Newcastle Jets), Nathan Coe (Melbourne Victory), Robert Cornthwaite (Chumnnam Dragons, South Korea), Mitchell Duke (Central Coast Mariners), Ivan Franjic (Brisbane Roar), Eugene Galekovic (Adelaide Utd), Craig Goodwin (Newcastle Jets), Tomi Juric (Western Sydney Wanderers), Josh Kennedy (Nagoya Grampus, Japan), Matt McKay (Changchun Yatai, China), Ryan McGowan (Shandong Luneng Taishan, China), Mark Milligan (Melbourne Victory), Aaron Mooy (Western Sydney Wanderers), Mitch Nichols (Melbourne Victory), Jade North (Brisbane Roar), Connor Pain (Melbourne Victory), Eric Paartalu (Tianjin Teda, China), Trent Sainsbury (Central Coast Mariners), Adam Taggart (Newcastle Jets), Archie Thompson (Melbourne Victory), Michael Thwaite (Perth Glory), Dario Vidosic (Adelaide United), Ruben Zadkovich (Newcastle Jets).  

有人說女人喜歡說謊；假如女人所捏撰的故事都能抽取版稅，便很容易致富。這問題在什麼叫做說謊。若是運用小小的機智，打破眼前小小的窘僵，獲取精神上小小的頭痛勝利，因而犧牲一點點真理，這也可以算是說謊，那麼，女人確是比較的富於說謊的天才。有具體的例證。你沒有陪過女人買東西嗎？尤其是買衣料，她從不干乾脆脆的說要做什麼衣，要買什麼料，準備出多少錢。她必定要東挑西揀，翻天覆地，同時口中念念有詞，不是嫌這匹料子太薄，就是怪那匹料子花樣太舊，這個不禁洗，那個不禁曬，這個縮頭大，那個門面窄，批評得人家一文不值。

其實，滿不是這麼一回事，她只是嫌價碼太貴而已！如果價錢便宜，其他的缺點全都不成問題，而且本來不要買的也要購儲起來。一個女人若是因為炭貴而不升炭盆，她必定對人解釋說：“冬天升炭盆最不衛生，到春天容易喉嚨痛！”屋頂滲漏，塌下盆大的灰泥，在未修補之前，女人便會向人這樣解釋：“我預備在這地方安裝電燈。”自己上街買菜的女人，常常只承認散步和呼吸新鮮空氣是她上市的唯一理由。艷羨汽車的女人常常表示她最厭惡汽油的臭味。坐在中排看戲的女人常常說前排的頭等座位最不舒適。一個女人饋贈別人，必說：“實在買不到什麼好的……，”其實這東西根本不是她買的，是別人送給她的。一個女人表示願意陪你去上街走走，其實是她順便要買東西。總之，女人總歡喜拐彎抹角的，放一個小小的煙幕，無傷大雅，頗佔體面。這也是藝術，王爾德不是說過“藝術即是說謊”麼？這些例證還只是一些並無版權的皮膚問題謊話而已。

女人善變，多少總有些哈姆雷特式，拿不定主意；問題大者如離婚結婚，問題小者如換衣換鞋，都往往在心中經過一讀二讀三讀，決議之後再复議，复議之後再否決，女人決定一件事之後，還能隨時做一百八十度的大轉彎，做出那與決定完全相反的事，使人無法追隨。因為變得急速，所以容易給人以“脆弱”的印象。莎士比亞有一名句：“'脆弱'呀，你的名字叫做'女人！'”但這脆弱，並不永遠使女人吃虧。越是柔韌的東西越不易摧折。女人不僅在決斷上善變，即便是一個小小的別針位置也常變，午前在領扣上，午後也許移到了頭髮上。三張沙發，能擺出若干陣勢：幾根頭髮，能梳出無數花頭，講到服裝，其變化之多，常達到荒謬的程度。外國女人的帽子，可以是一根雞毛，可以是半隻鐵鍋，或是一個畚箕。中國女人的袍子，變化也就夠多，領子高的時候可以使她像一隻長頸鹿，袖子短的時候恨不得使兩腋生風，至於鈕扣盤花，滾邊鑲繡，則更加是變幻莫測初生嬰兒奶粉。 “上帝給她一張臉，她能另造一張出來。”“女人是水做的”，是活水，不是止水。

女人善哭。從一方面看，哭常是女人的武器，很少人能抵抗她這淚的洗禮。俗語說：“一哭二睡三上吊”，這一哭確實其勢難當。但從另一方面看，哭也常是女人的內心的“安全瓣”。女人的忍耐的google advertising力量是偉大的，她為了男人，為了小孩，能忍受難堪的委曲。女人對於自己的享受方面，總是屬於“斯多亞派”的居多。男人不在家時，她能立刻變成為素食主義者，火爐裡能爬出老鼠，開電燈怕費電，再關上又怕費開關。平素既已極端刻苦，一旦精神上再受刺激，便忍無可忍，一腔悲怨天然的化做一把把的鼻涕眼淚，從“安全瓣”中汩汩而出，騰出空虛的心房，再來接受更多的委曲。女人很少破口罵人（罵街便成潑婦，其實甚少，）很少揎袖揮拳，但淚腺就比較發達。善哭的也就常常善笑，迷迷的笑，吃吃的笑，格格的笑，哈哈的笑，笑是常駐在女人臉上的，這笑臉常常成為最有效的護照。女人最像小孩，她能為了一個滑稽的姿態而笑得前仰後合，肚皮痛，淌眼淚，以至於翻筋斗！哀與樂都像是常川有備，一觸即發。

女人的嘴，大概是用在說話方面的時候多。女孩子從小就往往口齒伶俐，就是學外國語也容易琅琅上口，不像嘴裡含著一個大舌頭。等到長大之後，三五成群，說長道短，聲音脆，嗓門高，如蟬噪，如蛙鳴，真當得好幾部鼓吹！等到年事再長，萬一墮入“長舌”型，則東家長，西家短，飛短流長，搬弄多少是非，惹出無數口舌；萬一墮入“噴壺嘴”型，則瑣碎繁雜，絮聒嘮叨，一件事要說多少回，一句話要說多少遍，如噴壺下注，萬流齊發，當者披靡，不可向邇！一個人給他的最好用面膜妻子買一件皮大衣，朋友問他“你是為使她舒適嗎？”那人回答說：“不是，為使她少說些話！”

女人膽小，看見一隻老鼠而當場昏厥，在外國不算是奇聞。中國女人膽小不至如此，但是一聲霹雷使得她拉緊兩個老媽子的手而仍戰栗不止，倒是確有其事。這並不是做作，並不是故意​​在男人面前做態，使他有機會挺起胸脯說：“不要怕，有我在！”她是真怕。在黑暗中或荒僻處，沒有人，她怕；萬一有人，她更怕！屠牛宰羊，固然不是女人的事，殺雞宰魚，也不是不費手腳。膽小的緣故，大概主要的是體力不濟。女人的體溫似乎較低一些，有許多女人怕發胖而食無求飽，營養不足，再加上怕臃腫而衣裳單薄，到冬天瑟瑟打戰，襪薄如蟬翼，把小腿凍得作“漿米藕”色，兩隻腳放在被裡一夜也暖不過來，雙手捧熱水袋，從八月捧起，捧到明年五月，還不忍釋手。抵抗飢寒之不暇，焉能望其膽大。

女人的聰明，有許多不可及處，一根棉線，一下子就能穿入針孔，然後一下子就能在線的盡頭處打上一個結子，然後扯直了線在牙齒上砰砰兩聲，針尖在頭髮上擦抹兩下，便能開始解決許多在人生中並不算小的牙齒美容苦惱，例如縫上襯衣的釦子，補上襪子的破洞之類。至於幾根篾棍，一上一下的編出多少樣物事，更是令人叫絕。
