The Saint
First of all, let me thank you for all that you are providing to our members and posters on the World Cup, particularly those who are new to soccer and wagering on the matches.
I do have a question if you don't mind taking a moment to answer. In your original selections, you were going to pass on Group D but I see you have made selections. As to the upcoming game between Austrialia and Germany, can you give a brief explanation of why you like both Germany and the Under. Are Germany and/or Austrialia shut down defensive teams or are do they play a more wide open style of play. How are their strikers and defenders? Thanks in advance. I read your threads everyday as I only watch and wager on the World Cup every 4 years and don't follow soccer regularly. So far I am 1-0 this year having played Argentina -240 because I felt they were much superior to Nigeria and the 1-0 score is misleading as they had complete control of that game and Messi could have scored a hat trick in that game. Anyway, thanks in advance.

We might be the only 3 ppl in the forum that are going for Germany, it just seems like everyone is going for Australia +1 or the draw.
I believe the game will finish 1-0 or 2-0 for Germany. Watched them the other day against Poland and they play very conservative trying not to make many mistakes, but i def believe they will get one or two in.
OMT, thanks for the props, im just here to help. I was going to pass up, because it was a couple of days before the start, i didnt know how all the teams would start. now that serbia and ghana played their games, it was easier for me to cap the game between germany and argentina. maybe seems weird, but the motivational factor is very strong in the group stage, an important factor in handicapping games.
the game already started, sorry for the late response. australian coach verbeek is playing very defensively, and trying to lure for that one goal that could be decisive. set pieces are important for the OZ team. against not so strong teams this is possible, but against teams like germany its difficult to play that way. germany is rock solid and tough to play against no matter what. they're a machine, and maybe playing not the most attractive type of game, they're very effective! in the defense they have quality and strenghth, but also have a killer offense. podolski, klose are killers in the front.
they need that win to be number one in their pool. good luck.
Make that 4 I've been on all of saints sides
aussie aussie aussie....ouch ouch ouch!!!!.....even though i cheer fer my dutch....i will say it again and again...z germanz are not to be fucked with......love that cacau got one in the bag...took him and forlan and kuyt and ridiculous odds fer the golden boot....cheers
well saint, all i can say besides congrats is...the scoring will be coming from the squads we know will....brazil, spain, holland, germany, and possibly the albiceleste....stay with yer unders that don't involve these squads cuz these teams can put on amazing shows without the other team being involved...germany was threating routinely WHILE cahill was still in the game.....cheers
i agree with you my friend, those teams are for real. germany is the best team i've seen thus far in this tourney. strong, solid, fast. think holland will show us some great soccer tomorrow against denmark. germany wanted to show they're this good, and not backing off like f.e. argentina didю
Looks like I have to stop drinking so I can drive down to one of my books. What's the @2 convert too?, just want to make sure I'm getting a good number.

I took Paraguay but all that was available was PICK @ +175. I don't know shit about soccer, its very different to the types of lines I'm used too. i tried to look at pinny's lines to make sure I was getting a good one but their odds on world cup are confusing to me. I hope I got a good line.
