Seems as though we have been given an impossible group draw.

Spain
Netherlands
Chile
Australia

Good luck fellas......

 

[TREMBANYAMA]

Could argue that literally any draw would be an impossible draw with our current squad.

Good luck to them. Bit worried what the score line could be in the Netherlands/Spain game.

Well, considering the 6-0 scoreline against Brazil/France in those friendlies, I shudder to think what Spain/Netherlands will do to us.

 

[TREMBANYAMA]

Yeah won't be pretty.

I like to follow an outside chance, I'm sporting Columbia this year. They got a pretty nice even draw.

England will struggle, France, Brazil and Belgium should cruise through.

USA are stuffed. Portugal and ze Germans! Ouch.

Send an under 23's squad

 

[TommyVercetti]

The team would have better players if footy didn't take all the good players.

 

[GarnerSmash]

**** me, thats the toughest group of the lot. Ah well...

 

[rooboy335]

Shit...

 

[rooboy335]

Shit...

Excuse my Japanese I meant to say Shiitake

 

[shinboner magic]

Be happy if we get a draw against that lot.

Greece has a chance of getting through

that looks a pretty even group, I think Japan would fancy their chances too.

 

[WA ROO]

FIFA makes the AFL look clean and transparent

Lol

 

[Hatchy1992]

RIP Australia.

I want to see Colombia and Belgium do well.

 

[Donkey Chop]

Yeah I'm on Belgium too. Lukaku to go nuts

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

I would have been cheering Sweden on (love watching Ibrahimovic) but thanks to that knob end Ronaldo, they're sitting on the couch.

I'm on the Ivory Coast.

I still can't believe Ibrahimovic isn't going to be there. There's something not right about that. He'd have to be a sneaky chance for the
Ballon d'Or.

We are dead. Close thread.

On recent results it wouldn't have mattered who we were grouped with. We are nowhere near the standard to progress past the group stage.

Would have been nice to be put in Group H at the expense of Algeria/Korea.

Yeah that would've been a bit easier on our goalie

 

[TennisPlayerAndy]

At least he'll get a bit of exercise fetching the ball out of the net.

 

[shinboner magic]

Last time Columbia were one of the favourites, it didn't end to well.

Have you watched 'The two escobars'? It has to be one of the most powerful sport docos I've seen.
