Two of his mates played for Switzerland and got £7,600 fines for being knobs to Serbia about Kosovo.

World Cup: Why does Australia bother?

Even though he is a freelance journalist from Sydney, I'll bet any money that he is an AFL STOOGE.
That sport seems to be the only one from where journalists feel the need to either run down or compare themselves to Football, and they go out all guns blazing when World Cup time comes around.
As you said...…..f**kwit.

 

[Suitman]

This World Cup has been a raging success for Optus. Not.

 

[Twizzle]

Optus have blown it big time for their future. They will be wasting their time bidding for the next big sporting event.

It appears that the bloke just doesn't like sport at all from his comment "Perhaps you can tell I’m not a “sporting” man. Like Bob Carr, I’d rather read a book than attend a sporting match. Or read a book at a sporting match."
Seems a bit weird then that he would be wasting his time writing an opinion piece on sport then.

poms didn't want to win that and made it pretty obvious

 

[Gronk]

FMD Japan up 2-0 in the second half. They lose to Belgium 2-3 in injury time.

 

[strider]

Poor buggers ..... at least they know how to put it in the back of the net a couple of times

 

[Twizzle]

Belgium are a a class act and will go a long way in this WC

They’re France lite. Well.. maybe France clone.

Can’t remember who said it, les Murray ? probably a few have said it, that going up 2-0 is a lot dangerous than being up 1-0.

Theory being is the side down is gonna just attack aand attack and become uncontrollably dangerous

Proof in the pudding in today’s game at least
