It's a bit of a challenge to offer insight on an event half a world away, but it's still a good time to scratch out a few thoughts on the event:KUDOS FOR CNZ VIDEO
Daily video interview's from Croquet New Zealand. This is so long overdue for croquet. It's easy and it really gives everyone following a much better insight on the event. Well done for New Zealand. These videos have been shared in the Croquet Network video section. And yes, I do want this area to become the official collection site for web video on croquet.
PREDICTABILITY EQUALS SNOOZE
Team USA is down 6-0 to New Zealand and Australia trails England 7-2. We've seen incredibly entertaining comebacks before, but it really feels like it's already time to move on to the England-New Zealand showdown that was predicted. That's great news for the ranking system and bad news for entertainment value. I hope some sort of drama unfolds before this round concludes.
PHOTOS
I've seen a few photos posted on Facebook accounts. Again, there's a free user-community that endeavors to centralize sport croquet photos for the world. Give it a try.
