    I'm surprised the usual people haven't started a thread already. (If they have delete/merge threads please mods)

    Anyway the usual hilarity and cringeworthy carry on will probably happen. There are 32 entries and what do people think the number of nurses/teachers there will be this year ? I'll go with 14 in total.

    I'm sure we will have waltzing Matilda played for the Australian roses and another stereotypical American song for the roses from America. I've no idea which roses got in or all that.

    This thread is always a laugh and usually very accurate with predictions (last year was an exception)

    It's strange to have had it on after the all Ireland hurling final.

    Social media guru ? In the name of Jaysus...

    The rose that is in the judging panel is Brenda Hyland. Her daugther was on Dancing With The Stars this year. Her name was Alannah Byrne
