## Resource

The World Cup is here, the lads have updated the set and we're previewing every single GW1 fixture. Starting with Mexico vs South Africa, covering Brazil vs Morocco and a whole lot more! The boys run through all 16 fixtures, get tangled up in the great opening-ceremony debate, and try to work out which 5am kick-offs are secretly worth setting an alarm for. There's a brave call on the host nations, a cheeky long-shot punt on the playmaker award, and plenty of disagreement about who batters who. Predictions are locked in, prizes are on the line, and the watch-along schedule gets confirmed.
