I was about to say I'm fine with having cook islands as a separate team when we have Niue as well which is a tiny island, then I looked it up and found Niue is actually bigger than the cook islands! Niue's population is a lot smaller though, in relative terms. 

Anyway, would prefer the USA to win but think Cook Islands will find it pretty easy to be honest.

Should be a fairly easy win for the Kukis but USA have brought in a few decent players so might make a go of it with home advantage.

I'd say Kukis by 20.

Niue are actually a rl nation, they've recently played some tests.

I don't think USA has a chance. Less than 1%.

I think the USA losing will actually see a better result. Heads will roll. They might actually try to improve as an organisation.

I don’t have any connection to USA RL but I sense something is amiss.

The Cooks will win easily enough I predict.

It takes wisdom to know when a discussion has run its course.

It takes reasonableness to end that discussion.

Cooks to win I wish it would be the USA though for the excitement they bring. Do like the Cooks also.

"Shake hands, we shall never be friends, all’s over;
I only vex you the more I try.
All’s wrong that ever I’ve done or said,
And nought to help it in this dull head:
Shake hands, here’s luck, good-bye. "

You need to get a life mate

"I am the avenging angel; I come with wings unfurled, I come with claws extended from halfway round the world. I am the God Almighty, I am the howling wind. I care not for your family; I care not for your kin. I come in search of terror, though terror is my own; I come in search of vengeance for crimes and crimes unknown. I care not for your children, I care not for your wives, I care not for your country, I care not for your lives." - (c) Jim Boyes - "The Avenging Angel"
