Feel free to discuss anything related to the 2010 FIFA World Cup in this thread. Who will win? Which nation will be the biggest surprise? What big countries will be bundled out at the group stages?

Spain to win the World Cup. Italy runners up. Australia to get to the Quarter Finals. New Zealand to draw Italy. That is what I think will happen. I have a feeling New Zealand could get close against Italy by either drawing them or losing out in a close game.

Oy, Hmarka, it's bloody called Football! Get it right;):p

Generally people in Australia are expecting the Socceroosto make it past the group stage. But I wouldn't be too convinced, we have a hard group.

USA actually have the most fans travelling to SA for this.

Spain should win it. Brazil may pose some threats, but Spain are just so strong. I can't see France doing any good. Such a troubled time for them atm.

I wouldn't be surprised if Australia lost every game. That said we are also every chance to go through.

That does not mean anything, we also have the most fans who travel to figure skating events but that does not mean its popular here amongst the mainstream.

It may not be mainstream but it's certainly popular to a certain extent. To have the most fans travelling there out of all the nations does mean something.

Australia to get to the Quarter Finals. .

You seem confident. To do that we will have to;
1) Get out of our group
2) Most likely face England in the round of 16 and then have to beat them.

Spain to win the World Cup and maybe France to crash out of the competition early.

The top 2 from each go through to the round of 16. Then the winners of the Round of 16 matches go to the quarter finals, then the semi's, then the final.

EDIT: You beat me to it again J-Psychic :p

We play NZ at home on the 24th of May. Then we head to South Africa and play USA and Denmark in warm ups.
