    I think NZ are proving that they can not only play good rugby, but good football too.

    Is there any other side that contains actual amateurs?

    We have 3 or 4, I think.

    Neely, my young friend, I am cutting you out, I am afraid. Thinking of you and your family, I will have to ask you to wait until Friday when we get our next batch of 100 coins.

    (You will thank me in future! )


    I would like to thank Papaya for taking care of the game during my absence!

    Duuuuh! Sorry I meant 10 on Italy
    10 on Brazil

    and I was going to go 5 on Paraguay, but it wouldn't be fair to claim that now.

    I ws in a hurry...

    Tomorrow I'll go for 5 on Portugal
    5 on Spain
    5 on Chile

    Ok all 20 Cervantes on Spain beating Honduras. If this isn't a sure thing, then I give up with this world cup.

    There has been so much blood on the carpet during these group stages, Scher has decided to implement a Gordon Brownesque fiscal stimulation initiative for the knockout stages.
