Regardless, the Kiwis are here, but between results, form, and talent, they look the tournament's weakest team.  They have Blackburn captain (defender) Ryan Nelson, Chris Killen at Celtic, and two players in English league football (Fallon and Chris Wood).  The rest of their team, aside from San Jose Earthquake midfielder Simon Elliott (if he makes the trip), is playing in New Zealand. 


Duncan Oughton?

Three for me, and two for them.

I think its a fair analysis. I don't expect us to do a hell of a lot better. I think we could run Slovakia closer but against Paraguay....it could be a bit of a hiding....0-4 is likely.

Yeah, I think he overrates Slovakia a bit in his analysis, but not too far off with the rest.
