And those reports were wrong. It was a marsupial similar to fossils of European marsupials and in the same family as American opossums. It was not a kangaroo.

You're forgetting something: Creationists claim that kangaroos got to Australia in a short period time after getting off a boat as kangaroos in the middle east only 4000 years ago. If kangaroos did hop from the middle east to Australia 4000 years ago it could be expected to find some evidence of some kind of just that. Instead what we have is evidence of kangroos in Australia and nowhere else 25 MYA.
Not quite the same burden of proof for "evolutionists" as for creationists.
