lambs to the slaughter


What do you think about the FourFourTwo article Kiwis Name Their World Cup Squad?
CANTERBURY'S Aaron Clapham was the surprise inclusion when the New Zealand World Cup squad was announced in Auckland today.

Have your say.

next it will be "ahahaha we were right the first time...that's why we won 12-0 at the MCG"

Being realistic though, as a New Zealander i don't think we're better than australia, and hope that australia do well. It's just the mentality of a minority of posters on these forums, australians who think we're going to concede rugby scores at the world cup, and New Zealanders who think we're better than some teams at the world cup! We have a long way to go in terms of our quality as a footballing country, but this is a start and to be honest, I'd be stoked with 0-4 to italy, and 0-2 to the other two. Scoring a goal would be faaaaarking wicked, but having attended the second leg against bahrain i have concluded that Smeltz couldn't score in a brothel. I am looking forward to the world cup with anticipation whether we get thrashed or not, as it will be the first time in aaaaaaaages that NZ has had decent preparation before competition game(s), and will be a chance for the A-League and the might of the NZFC to be on show to the world. Best of luck with serbia, they're going to be tricky, as we will find out during our warm up matches.
