Good save Arnold.

Jesus that was close...

 

[Super Freak]

Good shit.

Quite rusty but got the job done.

 

[Super Freak]

It’s the most stressful sport in the world. How do people do this to themselves regularly? Being a broncos fan is bad enough.

Try being a Man United fan with Harry Maguire as captain.

Now THAT is stressful.

I don’t follow anything to do with soccer so don’t understand this reference. Except I do know that soccer is stressful so I believe you.

My dad grew up a Man U fan but apparently his favourite players all died in a plane crash when he was a kid so he stopped following soccer, no doubt this catastrophe saved me from a life as a soccer watcher.

Think Darius Boyd in his final couple of years.

Ew. No thanks.

 

[Super Freak]

It's a stressful game but that's one of the things that makes it so enjoyable to watch.

The final 15 minutes in Man United's win against Man City in January was probably the most stressed I've been in years but the elation when that final whistle blew just made sitting through that completely worth it. I was on cloud nine after that.

Good win. Would have been so much pressure on them so to get three points without Kerr is huge. Now they can move on with the tournament.

 

[Brocko]

So important to get the points in the first game even when rusty. Bit nervy at times but great result.

 

[Brocko]

Decent crowd at Suncorp for England tonight

 

[Brocko]

And that penalty means there has been a penalty in every single game of the WC so far

 

[Brocko]

England have not dominated this game as you would expect at all. Have looked shaky at the back.

 

[Super Freak]

Denmark just had a free header with pretty much an open goal and they send it over the crossbar.

 

[Super Freak]

I think whoever wins will be the one that goes through with England.

 

[Super Freak]

Do these women know it's football and not Rugby?

 

[Super Freak]

Oooo this could be a penalty for Denmark.

 

[Super Freak]

Good call not to give a penalty for handball.

I've seen those given, though.
