Despite my worst fears, it turns out from results over the weekend that there really are three good reasons to like soccer.
- Australia are pummelled (how terribly sad)
- The poms are humbled (how terribly unfortunate)
- And South African police have just warned World Cup-goers to be alert for a pack of marauding Argentine hooligans, of which they have now released pictures:
So that’s what they call it the beautiful game?
Meanwhile, in other sports news from the weekend
- Ireland surprised to learn they were here to play rugby (wasn’t this where they were supposed to play in the soccer WorldCup?, they wondered)
- All Whites surprised to learn New Zealand are there to play soccer (soccer? what’s that? they asked)
- And Karmichael Hunt surprised to find AFL harder than league (running flat out all afternoon? What the hell’s that about? his hamstrings pleaded)

We welcome thoughtful disagreement.
But we do (ir)regularly moderate comments -- and we *will* delete any with insulting or abusive language. Or if they're just inane or off topic. It’s okay to disagree, but pretend you’re having a drink in the living room with the person you’re disagreeing with. This includes me.
PS: Have the honesty and courage to use your real name. That gives added weight to any opinion.
