They aren't "moving" there JD, they're just basing their training there.

Re: Cricket World Cup

I don't consider it a worthwhile sport - but yes, England did win the last Rugby Union game.
Australia won the last Rugby league game I believe?

Re: Socceroos Friendlies

Good to see a home match played in London before Adelaide. Brazil, Argentina and many other nations play home games in Europe to save their players having to travel too much on the limited time the international weekends offer. Makes sense to me. It would be good to have more games at home here as ...

Re: Figo wants 48 team World Cup

Interesting.

I guess the idea is that it gives almost-there countries in tough confederations a chance to compete and improve.

But then, it's a competition for the best countries in the world, so I guess 'almost-there' countries don't deserve to be there.

Good point, but a clean sheet is a good sign. Letting in 4 goals isn't.
Especially against the bottom team.

I'd take a 4-4 draw against the top team though.
