Decent group for us in the world cup. Looking forward to the new format. One of my favourite tournaments of the year even if it's an exhibition

Think most of the groups are straight forward on who will progress. Sweden to pip Switzerland and New Zealand might trouble Latvia depending on what Razma's partner is like

Interesting to see Keane Barry in it. Might give Lennon a push to improve if he wants the spot next year. He looked a real talent a few years ago. Sad to see him slipping.

Willie's always fairly consistent, could have a decent run

The two Belgian lads wouldn't even acknowledge each other on the stage

World Cup probably deserves it's own thread.

I think the doubles format is working well so far as it created a few unexpected results last night.

Ireland cruised to victory, the most notable thing was the Thai player bumping into Willie, I though he was going to lose the plot at one point.

Yeah what was that about, or what happened?

In fairness he did back into him several times, no idea what it was about though you could clearly see he was getting annoyed by it.

Croatia beat Thailand 4-3 so tonight match a straight shoot out for a place in next round

Belgium beat Holland 8-7 , and are thru to QF's (i think?)

Germany gub England 8-3 to set up a semi-final v Scotland who have been impressive so far.

Wales v Belgium in the first semi-final, not sure the stage is big enough for the ego's and potential antics there. Good chance there'll be a fight imo.
