Seeing as the draw is tomorrow, makes sense to start a thread for the upcoming World Cup (Leave the FIFA thread for Blatter's next racist/sexist comment)

Rehearsal draw was made today, pretty interesting groups:

Group A: Brazil, France, Italy, Australia

Group B: Uruguay, Nigeria, USA, Croatia

Group C: Argentina, Ghana, Costa Rica, Russia

Group D: Switzerland, Chile, Japan, Greece

Group E: Spain, Ivory Coast, South Korea, England

Group F: Colombia, Cameroon, Honduras, Netherlands

Group G: Germany, Ecuador, Iran, Portugal

Group H: Belgium, Algeria, Mexico, Bosnia

I would hate to see the damage that would be done to Australia if they were drawn in Group A.

In all seriousness, we've got a chance. Playing Costa Rica in the last game helps.

Still fancy us. Uruguay only qualified because they got drawn with Jordan in the play-offs.

Group G looks brutal, as does Group B.

England's group is strange - could go either way.

I think that's a decent group.

It's hard, but I think both Italy and Uruguay are beatable and are the sort of teams we have to be beating anyway to do anything in the tournament and on the plus side we've managed to avoid the Spains, Germanys, Argentinas and Brazils of the world.
