Im liking the looks of:

* Sweden to top their group @ $3
* Australia to make the R16 @ $3
* Klose @ $23 to win Golden Shoe
* Aloisi to be Australia's Top Scorer @ $6.50
* Gerrard to be England's Top Scorer @ $6.00

Aloisi for the Golden Boot!

Croatia have pretty reasonable odds for their friendly against Poland tonight, they are at $2.25 i believe...

With the streak he's on and his career record of making streaks long, Crouch at either 40-1 for the Boot or more likely to be England's top scorer may be worth a small punt?

definately a chance, i just wonder how much part he'll play if and when Rooney returns...

He'll still be the impact player from the bench so will get half an hour or so each game at least (assuming nobody is injured)

found some interesting odds here, i like the look of group H, Ukraine and Spain might be able to put a few past Tunisia and Saudia Arabia, and possibly have a few when they play each other.

Code:
Highest Scoring Group

GROUP A 	$6.50 
 
GROUP B 	$6.50 
 
GROUP C 	$10.00 
 
GROUP D 	$5.00 
 
GROUP E 	$10.00 
 
GROUP F $5.00 
 
GROUP G 	$7.00 
 
GROUP H 	$7.50

Some cracking bets here

A Liverpool player to score in each round is only 8-1, so if England were to fail, I guess you'd need France or Spain going far, assuming Cisse lasts the month as a Liverpool player.

Rooney is 40-1 to captain England, I think he better focus on getting fit first!

Amazingly, three red cards in a game is only 6-1 with Sky.

33-1 on England being excluded due to rioting, how embarassing that the ebt is even mentioned

I'm gonna look at the other sites, see what they're offering. I can't wait for the World Cup to begin!

i had $30 on aus to win @ $6.50 but no.
was pretty optimistic, i was gonna go 1-1 but friendlies are just too unpredictable, i did win on Ivory Coast against Slovenia, but $1.75 was too good to pass up.
