Why would you move the best RW in the world?
KJH scores goals. You can't argue with goals.
Kuyt as a lone striker? Asking for trouble IMO.
Anyone watched any games at a pub (in Melbourne)? If so, where?
Possible venues: http://au.setanta.com/portal/systemcontent/pubchannelpart1#event_3_venues
Would like to see a couple games, just don't know who's open at those hours

Why did Nasri only play 15 minutes? Injured as well or some crazy tactical change?
If Sweden played American Samoa, you'd predict a draw as well.

Nasri came on for Ribery, before the red card. Once the red card came out instead of taking Benzeama off, they took off Nasri.

8.45 pm (CET)
innsbruck, stadion tivoli
my tip: 1st spain, 2nd Sweden/draw
No Ibra for Sweden ive heard and Arshavin is back for Russia however Sweden only need a draw where as the Russians must win. I like Russia and if i had money ide put it on.
incorrect
Just repeating what i heard on the news. If im wrong correct it dont just say incorrect.

He is correct. Sweden have a better GD, better GF, better GA, better UEFA Coefficient. Smartguy.
See Section V, Paragraph 7.07 of the Regulations of the UEFA European Football Championship 2006/08 (pdf) and Euro 2008 wiki:
According to the official UEFA rules for the tournament, the following tie-breaking criteria will apply, in this order, should two or more teams from the same group finish with an equal number of points. In keeping with previous European championships, the head to head record between the tied teams takes precedence over goal difference.
1. Number of points earned in matches between the teams in question;
2. Goal difference in matches between the teams in question;
3. Goals scored in matches between the teams in question;
4. Goal difference in all group matches;
5. Goals scored in all group matches;
6. In cases where exactly two teams are equal in all previously listed critera and play one another to a draw in their final group match,[14] kicks from the penalty mark will be conducted in lieu of the remaining criteria;
7. Coefficient from the qualifying competitions for the 2006 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 2008 (points obtained divided by the number of matches played);
8. Fair play conduct of the teams in the group stage;
9. Drawing of lots.

Yep, so you're incorrect.
It's the first tie-breaker
There's a reason there's more than one.
If it's a draw, it goes to the second tie-breaker, which is goal difference.
Just reading through that all slowly and carefully, I think I am indeed wrong, and tiebreaker 4 would apply: Goal difference in all group matches.
I could have sworn that they said that Turkey v Czech Republic at 2-2 the other day was headed for ET/P.
Anyone else confirm I'm wrong?

It was headed for penalties because every single one of those criteria was equal between those two sides.

You really need some education
1) Irrelevant as their points will be split as it is a draw
2) Irrelevant as it is a draw, there is no GD
3) Irrelevant as it is a draw, both teams scored the same.
4) GD in all group matches.
You think I didn't know all these rules already? Common knowledge these days imo.

Yep, I will happily admit I'm wrong and a douche!
http://en.euro2008.uefa.com/news/kind=1/newsid=713942.html#group+a+decider+could+penalties
Group A could have been decided by penalties because Turkey and the Czech Republic had both scored 2 goals, conceded 3 goals, and thus both had a -1 goal difference leading into their match. That is not the case in Group D so yes, a draw will suffice for Sweden.
Yeah, yeah, throw the rotten fruit

Naah, it's all cool.
I was sure I knew the rules, but like many uninformed people, I had not done any research to confirm what I thought I knew.
I got there in the end, and I'm now informed
(and a bit less of a douche) .
