    I'd say it's to top the group. All the big teams are all odds-on in it

    He's a hurler who'll be playing in the Munster Final on the 11th July bai. Any Tipp men gonna be there apart from the felas sellin the chips outside the ground?;):pac:

    Yerra he was poor today, but he got no good ball either. I'd have him as a sub only these days and throw Shane Walsh in full forward.

    Calling him a hurler at this stage is a bit of a stretch! He had a chance for an easy point in the first half and ended up passing it to the Clare Goalkeeper.

    Some point by Ken today, dya reckon he'll ever be able for 70 mins again though? There was a massive point by Kelly too. Tony Browne musnt be human, he's unreal.

    That lad Honan for Clare looks handy, he stuck out to me in their u-21 games last year. He scored a savage goal against Galway in the semis. Nice to see it carry over to the senior games with him

    Just remember, it's only an exam mate. Just do your best in it. You've plenty of time so relax, always read the questions carefully and to take your time when answering. Like I said in the "best wishes to LC and JC students thread", it's only a test and they can only test ye on what ye know.

    Best of luck with it and that goes to all doing the LC and JC here:)

    I don't reckon Ken has the 70 in him anymore but some man to have for a ten minute crowd rousing cameo. I nearly cried when he fired that point over.

    Don't talk to me about Tony Brown. Best Waterford hurler I've ever seen.

    Let me guess Xavi and Messi on the back?;) She's a keeper that one.

    Looking forward to this World Cup more than any since 1994 oddly enough.

    Who do ye think is gonna win lads? My few bob is gone on Brazil, I think they're solid put under Dunga and thats all you need in international football these days. Backed Luis Fabiano for top scorer as well.

    Haha. I don't do names on the back, but if I was it would be Puyol and Messi.

    I think it wont be either Spain or Brazil for some reason. I really think Hingurlund could do it.

    And for funnsies, I would like to see France doing it. The anti French ads etc is really getting on my firm man chest. Appealling to the lowest common denominator of **n "readers", peasants and the chrnically unemployed (ie those who have been on the dole for the last 5+ years).

    I think Spain will do it (hope so). I think they have an awesome squad. I reckon this is the year a European team wins it outside of Europe anyway. I can see the English going far and making the semis. I wouldn't be surprised if the Dutch do well either, although they will probably do the usual in tournaments - destroy some team by a few goals with gorgeous football and then flop in the following match.

    I had the Dutch jersey for the '98 WC and had high hopes for them but wasn't to be. Bergkamp's goal against Argentina is a great memory though. Haven't got any jerseys at the minute except the latest Irish one. Might wear that and have a bit of a cry. :pac:

    +1. Those ads and all that other knob-jockey DJ led bullsh*t is so tedious.

    Argentinawill make for fantastic TV. They could be brilliant and with the talent they have they should be. Or they could be atrocious under Diego. No one knows, but either way it'll be amazing to watch and the team I'm most looking forward to seeing.

    Argentina as I always do.:P

    They broke my heart over the years, Bergkamp's moment of genius denied them in 1998. Then of coirse 2002, when they made an absolute balls of it despite having an insane squad. Ortega and Aimer (spelling bitches) in the midfield were superb to watch, but they were so negative. :(

    2006 killed me though, they were amazing to watch in all their matches before the quarter final. The dismantling of Serbia was poetry in motion and some of the goals were immense. Then against Germany they scored early and bottled it sadly, by sticking everyone behind the ball. What angered me the most was that Messi rotted on the bench, where the game was made for him.

    Imagine the damage he could have done in extra time against Germany's defense who was never that good really? :(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(:(

    Go to your team pic, press the PrtSc (Print screen) key (upper right part of keyboard), then open Paint (Start > All programs > Accessories) and Paste it (ctrl and v). Go to File and Save as (jpeg or png).

    Go to tinyurl.com - Upload your pic. When your pic is uploaded, it'll give you links to your pic. Copy the link for forum's. Finally, upload it in your post here

    Easy:):cool::pac:
