Premier League star Charlie Austin reveals what he REALLY thinks of Aussie food and drink as he plays for the Brisbane Roar - and lovers of Tim Tams won't be happy

Former English Premier League striker Charlie Austin has settled in well after signing with Brisbane Roar ahead of the A-League season - but he's not fond of some iconic Australian food and drink.

Austin, 33, who at his peak was on the books of Queens Park Rangers, Southampton and West Bromwich Albion, will look to hit the ground running in his first game with the Aussie side.

He will get his start in the Roar's round of 16 clash versus Avondale FC in the Australia Cup on Wednesday night.

Adding to his motivation is the fact Austin's family are due to arrive from London - but he will be in Melbourne with his new teammates for the match.
