Big lads bashing each other

[Gordon Armstrong]

Tasty QFs

Japan v South Africa
New Zealand v Ireland
England v Australia
Wales v France

All matches have a bit of history. Japan beat South Africa in the last World Cup, Ireland won 2 of their last 3 matches against New Zealand having never beaten them previously, England v Australia a perennial classic and Wales v France is traditionally a great match up of flair and running rugby.

Going for Japan, New Zealand, England and Wales in the semis,so that probably means an Ireland v France final

That's not really you, the real 'Letalent' is it

Anyone fortunate enough to watch England hammer the Aussies? An absolute masterful performance of power and speed. This is turning out to be a very very good weekend.

I caught the last 30 minutes.

Dominated the convicts from what I saw

There's probably only one thing that could spoil it, Farnboro

Fingers crossed it won't. That said it won't spoil my weekend that much as our eldest daughter is visiting for a long weekend.

Finally got the cheating Aussies out of the competition, pretty comprehensive from England.

On a knife edge this Wales-France game. The French were excellent first half and should have been out of sight. Won't be at all surprised to see them implore from here though.

 

[cumbrianmackem]

Well that was tight, well done Wales.

 

[Chunksafc]

They certainly play to the final whistle and give everything

 

[DELETED ACCOUNT 1234]

Stereotypical French performance.

 

[cumbrianmackem]

One moment of madness with the elbow, crazy, if that happened in a pub he'd have been arrested for assault.

That’s me in for a good day, our lass is a massive welsh fan and she is happy for once. I might even try to get her to look at a new car today.

 

[Sheep Farmer]

Welsh luck and smugness in equal proportions then.

Looking forward to this one, going to have to be at our best to get anything

So looking forward to it. Two fantastic teams but as you say Chunk, we'll have to be on top of our game (so will they). Hopefully the game is won by the players and not by the TMO. Anyone else watching?

 

[Chunksafc]

The players warming up goes on for ages, I'd be ****ed before the game started

 

[cumbrianmackem]

Squeezing this one in before heading to Leeds for a Andrea Boccelli concert, looking forward to it.

 

[Chunksafc]

Jesus, that's some start

We're certainly at our best so far. This is tense though. We should have punished them once more already. Hoping it doesn't come back to bite us.

 

[Chunksafc]

The pace of the game is ridiculous, hope we have enough in the tank
