Brazil is a given.  The second spot will come down to the Australia-Croatia match (I don't think Japan have the quality to advance).  I'd love to see the Aussies do it, but the Croats have more talent and the match is in Europe.

I have not heard a lot about the Australian squad, but there going to have a tough round robin run with Croatia, Brazil, and Japan all wanting to get to that second round. If they are going to have any chance of getting through, they will have to beat both Croatia and Japan, seeing as Brazil will probably win all of their games. So, I predict that Australia will either barely be in second, or they will sit in the third spot and go home early.

YES,\nwith Dream Team like this,\nI don't think any team can beat them.\n\nBrazil for World Cup 2006\n\nRonaldo, Ronaldinho, Robinho, Adriano (Forward)\n\nEdmilson, Juninho Pernambucano, Emerson, Ze Roberto, Gilberto Silva, Kaka, Ricardinho (Midfield)\n\nCafu, Cicinho, Lucio, Roberto Carlos, Gilberto (Defender)\n\nDida (Goalkeeper)

2007\nThe Asian Football Confederation's 2007 Asian Cup finals will be held in July 2007 (Starting on July 7, 2007, ending on July 29, 2007). For the first time in its history (and perhaps in any sporting event), the competition will be co-hosted by four nations – Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam.\n\nThe Asian Cup has been held once every four years from 1956 onwards, the last of which held in China in 2004. However, as the Summer Olympic Games and the European Football Championship are also held in the same year as the Asian Cup (2004, 2008, 2012 etc.), the sporting calendar is somewhat crowded. The AFC have thus decided to change their tradition, and will be holding the next tournament in 2007, and every four years henceforth from that date.\n\nIt is the first major tournament that Australia will participate as an invitee of the ASEAN Football Federation since its move into the AFC on January 1, 2006

We can still make it, and we will make it! All we need is a draw with Croatia. Japan wont beat Brazil by more than 2 goals so all we need is a draw. I think we will score and take all 3 points. Go the Aussies!

really cant imagine malaysia or singapore will enter WC. their ranking is out of 100 in the world and also far behind from asian country like japan, korean or even thailand.. maybe 10++year more..

Again, yes. But not this year. They are not as strong a team as they were compared to past years. England and Netherlands are strong too. So this world cup will be one of the more exciting ones

Yes, they are. They are 52nd right now, as per FIFA latest rankings. But if you are talking about this year Wolrd Cup, they did not qualify for the final tournament.

pre-world cup performance does not guarantee a world cup win. we can take the example of 2002 Japan Korea world cup, where Brazil struggled to qualify to become one of 32 nations to play the tournament, and then won the world cup for fifth time ! France and Argentina were the top favorites to win the cup, but they were eliminated in the first round. and what South Korea did? they played in the semi-final!\n\nwell, temperament will be the name of the game as soon as the world cup begins. tradition will come second. for such reasons, only 5 countries lifted the world cup for 15 times out of 17 tournaments followed by 2 countries won one time each.\n\nin my opinion, top contenders of this Germany 2006 are Brazil, Argentina, Germany and Italy. Holland could be the dark horse of the tournamentand hence, should be watch out carefully. If Wayne Rooney becomes match fit to play, England should be considered as a top contender too.\n\nAny of the above top contenders could win the world cup 2006.
