I love the finesse, it's definitely the highest skilled of all the sports, you don't just bully the ball down the field, you dance with the ball.  All your body parts (Except your hands) are in on the action.  It takes stamina, strategy, teamwork, and a bit of Art!  The World Cup brings all the best together for this, what is more awesome than that?

He is good, he has a great understanding of the game and a seemingly good understanding and relationship of and with his players. He has an incredible ability to build and refine great fitness levels in the teams he coaches.But he never sticks around very long with any team it seems. In the game Australia  V's Japan his strategic outlook and player positioning was questionable. Once he worked out the "mistakes" he rectified them, however I think the guts and determination of our Aussie players made him look brilliant this morning.

Because they are really good. I saw them play at the last Olympic Games.

YES, Aus are the best team in both forms of cricket. The reasons:-\n1. They can pull out a match from disasterous situations.\n2. They have appropriate utility cricketers(probably world's best) in every aspects of the game(batting, bowling, fielding, wicket-keeping).\n3. Their domestic cricket format is the best. Since the main players are compelled to play in the domestic cricket so it is very competitive. And hence there are an abundance supply of new players, and so they can afford their rotation policy.\n4. They (Aus board) take players in the Aus team only when they are experienced in the domestic cricket for a number of years(eg. Mike Hussey, Brad Hodge, etc.), and hence the new-comers doesnt find taff to fit into the int. cricket.\n5. Because they can afford to give their players some rest due to rotation policy, so when the players come back to the team they are anxious, fresh and hungry to play.\n\nI think these are some of the many points which makes Aus different from the other teams.

Amazing Australia... come to think of it, it's not really that amazing anymore when one consider the phenomenal successes achieved by AUSTRALIANS in sports... it's in their national psyche to be AWESOME in anything they do. Very well done mates.... Go Socceroos!!!

The Australians are obviously more intelligent and advanced than the Americans. Lets pray to God to enlighten the foolish Americans!

Heck no Jenny. We play Soccer, Rugby Union, AFL and Rugby League. Our game is so physical. No mountainous padding just raw contact and skill. It requires an enormous amount of fitness. Our players are interchanged throughout the game but they can not go onto the field to just kick a goal or something as they do in American Football. It would be so hard to explain all the games to you so here are some links that you can check out and they will give you all the information you need. People out here are so passionate about our football games. It's rough n tumble. \n\nSooo go THE PANTHERS....GO THE SWANS...N GO THE WARATAHS\n\nAFL\nhttp://afl.com.au/\nLeague\nhttp://www.nrl.com.au/\nUnion\nhttp://rugby-union-world.com\n\nHope they help you a little to get to know our great games.

When Australia was playing the Uruguayos, Australia was told it had no chance.  \nIn the first qualifyer Australia played hard and put a lot of pressure on Uruguay.  \nUruguay tried all sorts of funny business to disadvantage Australia (very unsportman-like!) changing times etc. and yet Australia still managed to send the Uruguayos home with their tails between their legs.\n\nAustralian players are playing for the top European and English leagues, so they can definitely play with the best of them.\n\nBrasil will be tough, but they are no infallible.  Australia doesn't have as much to lose and they are going to put up a great fight.\n\nI thought that Australia would win against Uruguay and I believe that they have a good chance at taking the Cup.  Aussies are fighters and tough and as long as they win the psychological game they can win the physical game.

It will be closer than what most aussies are anticipating.Having said that Australia,I believe,have peaked at the right time ,are playing under familiar conditions,are very positive in their approach and attitude and give the appearance of being "hungrier" at this point in time.Aussies to win 4 -1

Well I am an Aussie, we lost and I'm still not disappointed. We put up a good effort and performance from my view of things, Don't be disappointed. Support your team no matter how they go. No one is perfect all the time. They are there for their country and to entertain us with their skills and we should enjoy and appreciate them all. But as for that 6 points you are talking of, if they haven't done it so far I don't really think it's all that likely as the competition tightens and becomes harder and much more competitive.
