As the world's biggest sporting competition samba's elegantly along in Brazil, we take a look at IWF's very own international stars. Will their nation triumph or will they suffer a dirty exit?
Roberto Verona
The IWF COO may have spent many of his formative years in Chicago, but the outspoken Head of the IWF Roster is still a red-blooded Italian at heart. Born in Florence, Verona will be uttering a few more Forza Italia's this next month than usual.
Mercedes Vargas
Much like Argentina's talisman Lionel Messi, Mercedes Vargas has been setting her own records recently when she became the longest reigning Ruby champion in company history. Can the opinionated champion from Buenos Aires also celebrate a World Cup victory?
Amber Richards and Jake Conway
As far as careers, attitudes and goals go Amber and Jake couldn't be any further apart, but one thing that unites the pair is the three lions on their respective chests. Will the pair be celebrating (in very seperate homes we stress) a triumph over fourty years in the making?
Cyrus Daniels
It's been a while since we've seen Cyrus on our television screens (rumours abound that he may very well be back in more familiar surroundings as we speak) but wherever the giant is, we don't doubt that he has his eyes affixed to his own monitor to cheer... or grunt on his Socceroos. Will the Aussies give the big guy something to cheer about?
