    Some good news...

    Has the women's coach been canned yet? Surely it's a given now

    The WC starts again now. Croatia and Belgium have been the best-performed teams so far. I wouldn't mind that as a final and a first-time winner.

    I don't want Brazil to win if they keep up this anti-beautiful diving charade. FIFA are full of shit. Want to stop diving and simulation? Make it a YC offence, instruct the refs to vigorously police it and see how quick these punks clean themselves up

    They tried that with swearing and shouting at the ref in the Premiership. Lasted two matches.

    Pandora has definitely dived out of her box and there's no putting her back in 😞

    No decision yet but I would think (hope) that Heraf goes too. The players don't want him so his position is untenable.

    The team will be stronger once Erceg comes out of retirement, along with anyone else who has sat out. Martin paid for his arrogance. Nothing worse than bullies who think they know better than everyone else

    Slightly confused about this talk of thinking England have beaten Colombia already ...

    Not seen or heard a single bit of that myself. Whole office is worried about Colombia, the daily rags on the train were all talking about Colombia. A couple of them mentioned that England's side of the draw is somewhat easier than the other, but focus is on Colombia.

    You'd think so, but it might depend on how much it is going to cost.

    I heard a little snippet in the last couple of days that Janine Southby is likely to survive as Silver Ferns coach because they can't afford the cost of getting rid of her.

    If she decides to hang on on that basis it would seem time for a stadium of fans to start chanting "Fuck off Southby"!

    Kind of rooting for the Argies now, theyre all so gung ho into it. Plus, of course, Fuck France.

    Just when I thought DiMaria had fallen off Rodders Cliff he goes and hits a 35 yard wonder strike.

    Messi looks like he's out for a Sunday walk, when you even see him that is

    Charles Piutau is having a savage game for France. 2 goals in the 2nd half already.

    I thought the Argies might trouble a France team who seemed like they could be a little soft in the middle. But after withstanding the challenge the French are looking legit

    Great match. Set the standard hopefully.

    Thought Argentina would do it, but thoroughly deserved win for France.

    They're going to be hard to beat.

    France-Argentina has been the best game so far. I never thought this game would be one-sided but expected France to prevail. Two of the best goals of the WC too! Kante has some engine on him. Messi was a passenger, which sums up his tournament.

    Uruguay-Portugal isn't over yet. But WTF with CR7's shorts halfway up his arse when he takes a free kick. Another reason to hate him.

    The Mexican ref was great. He didn't stand for any of the player theatrics and the game flowed.

    Two stunners from Cavani.

    Two great matches.

    Happy to be 0-2 with my predictions on these performances
