    Cant happen, Spain and Brazil are both seeded.

    We need to avoid any of these combos if possible, otherwise we are probably coming home before the KO stage:

    Germany/Spain
    Chile/Ecuador/Ivory-Coast/Ghana
    USA/Mexico
    or
    Argentina/Brazil/Uruguay
    France/Ivory-Coast/Ghana
    USA/Mexico

  9. We should be hoping for Switzerland or Columbia from the seeded teams

    May be the first time in a long time there are multiple groups of death, a lot of good teams in this tournament. Should be awesome, really excited for the draw actually.

  11. I know its what it is referred to as but perhaps that's not the best choice of words considering events in Brazil...<laugh>

    I used to look forward to these big international tournaments but I've not got excited about one since 1998!

    I am excited with this one. Try this little simulator and look how many times your team gets a tough group or just the tough groups in general!!

    http://ultra-zone.net/2014-FIFA-World-Cup-Group-Stage-Draws

    My first draw was:

    Group A:
    Brazil
    Algeria
    England
    Korea Republic ( Actually not a bad draw!!)

    Group B:
    Belgium
    Honduras
    Ecuador
    Greece ( Not too bad either)

    Group C:
    Uruguay
    USA
    Cameroon
    Italy (.................... **** <laugh> )

    Group D:
    Argentina
    Japan
    France
    Bosnia ( OOFT)

    Group E:
    Swiss
    Mexico
    Nigeria
    Portugal ( Anyone's guess here!)

    Group F:
    Spain
    Australia
    Chile
    Croatia ( Apart from the aussies, not an easy propostition)

    Group G:
    Colombia
    Iran
    Ghana
    Holland ( tough as well)

    Group H:
    Germany
    Costa Rica
    Ivory Coast
    Russia ( again pretty tough)

    This was after the first try so you can imagine all the possibilities.

  14. Just did a single simulation and I'd be happy with this:

    Argentina, Iran, Nigeria & England


    Edit:

    Even happier with the second simulation:

    Switzerland, Korea Republic, Nigeria & England
