tipping comp

So with a colleague I have started a workplace tipping comp for the world cup and I thought I'd post my picks here.

We have broken it down so you do your picks for the first 20 games as well as naming your picks for who will make up the final four and who will win. We are giving 1 point for each right guess during the round robin and the 2 points from the round of 16 onwards. Its 25 bonus points for correct winner and 5 for each of the final four you guess.

So here goes - i will put my pick and then the actual result.

Sth Africa v Mexico - Mexico (Draw)
Uruguay v France - Draw (Draw)
Argentina v Nigeria - Argentina (Argentina)
Sth Korea v Greece - Draw (Sth Korea)
England v USA - Draw (Draw)
Algeria v Slovenia - Slovenia (Slovenia)
Germany v Australia - Germany (Germany)
Serbia v Ghana - Draw (Ghana)
Netherlands v Denmark - Netherlands (Netherlands)
Italy v Paraguay - Italy (Draw)
New Zealand v Slovakia - Draw (Draw) FUUCKKK YEAAHHH
Cote d'Ivoire v Portugal - Portugal (Draw)
Brazil v Nth Korea - Brazil (Brazil)
Honduras v Chile - Chile
Spain v Switzerland - Spain
Sth Africa v Uruguay - Uruguay
France v Mexico - Draw
Greece v Nigeria - Draw
Argentina v Sth Korea - Argentina

I will add the next 20 odd games when we do those.

Now my top 4 is based on who should roughly win the anticipated head to heads during the round of 16 and quarters.

Video below of the goals and that penalty shoot out from last weekend - my voice has now recovered!

It's amazing that in the last 18 months or so the best events at the Stadium have been two football games (NZ V Bahrain and the Phoenix v Glory play off) and the first ACDC concert - not one of the rugby games, including the Bledisloe Cup game in September come close.
