It just started and we’re still in off season so might as well. I think Germany has the perfect group to embarrass themselves too should they not make it out of groups stage.

Negative. Time difference to Aus/NZ is just too much.

Same. The games are actually available as VODs on Viaplay, but it’s just not as exciting to watch after the fact. I might still watch some Sweden games that way though, and maybe the semi-finals and the final.

I think I’m just going to chalk this one myself. I’d try to watch Sweden and Japan, but for a lot of the world, the time zones are just shit. Maybe next iteration…

I’m definitely watching. The first match just finished. So happy for New Zealand. It’s always fun when the hosts have success in their tournament.
