It's football not netball!  :laugh:

LOL yeah Bav we had a lot of coverage of him over him.
He certainly loves his job as unofficial Qantas pilot

As for tonight, im looking forward to Dutch and Danes.
I can remember the Danes run in the 1986 World Cup really caught my attention

Hope they beat the Dutch

As for Italians well lets hope Paraguy slips past their Zimmerframes   :D

One match out of how many? The France match has been by far the worst, the England vs USA match wasn't exciting, the Algerian vs Slovenia match was boring. Apart from the Germans vs the Aussies, the only other match I enjoyed watching was the South Korea vs Greece match.

Algeria Slovenia was a great match, as was the South Korea Greece game...

Not too many goals but the opening is always cagey.

we got Portugal Ivory Coast tomorrow which will be a great game, and the Italy game today could be interesting

The Algerian vs Slovenia was not amazing and would have ended it in a stalemate had it not been for a blunder by the Algerian keeper.

I was very impressed by the game last night. It was a great win by Germany in South Africa and they are certainly the first team to have turned up and put in a great showing. Low's team looked to have quality players across the park and im sure they have sent a message to the rest of the competition. They certainly did better than i expected and look dangerous going forward. Wonder who the next team to pin their ambitions to the post will be.

The problem with Holland is their fracturous dressing room and the fact that they peak too early in tournaments. I'd like to see them do well because their style of football is as beautiful as their national anthem, but they like England always seem to fall down when an stern obstacle is placed in front of their path.

As for England, Ledley King might/will be out for the rest of the competition, let's hope Michael Dawson can come in and fill the void.

Seems a bit of a drab so far. Denmark edging ahead towards the end of that half.

Dull match.

Those Vuvuzela's are f'ucking boring into my skull. It's a pity you cant get the commentary without the crowd noise. :angry:
