Making it hard for ourselves then .. Got to beat the Aussies and maybe hope Wales beat them too? We dominated the first half but Wales despite the injuries really got into us and of course kicked really well.
Glad I missed it - though could have done without encountering hoards of Welshmen in Farringdon around midnight gloating like it was going out of fashion albeit pretty good natured.
A few too many one-sided games for my liking...and the one really close one was almost too painful to watch.
I agree. Should get better over the next two weekends with some real crunch games coming up although I'm already worried about the Australians. I am tempted to back them to beat us as my money should be a big enough handicap for us to squeeze through!
Cracking effort by Georgia last night. The minor nations really have been a joy in this tournament. Some terrific games in prospect today with Scotland taking on South Africa and tonight's must win at Twickers. Enjoy
Not sure whether I'll be able to watch tonight, but suspect I will. After last Saturday I haven't watched any of the games- just gone off rugby! Will watch this afternoon to try and get the taste again.
http://www.skysports.com/rugby-unio...iani-not-one-aussie-would-get-in-england-team Just seen the above.. What an idiot - talk about helping motivating the opposition! To think these players have all the media training in the world yet still manage to come up with arrogant comments like that..
Indeed - their back line are just a bunch of bashers which is a massive shame when you think of the brilliant ones they had in the past. The NZ game will be a big confrontation but i would be very surprised if France win.
Aussie were indeed tremendous in defence. I can't see past an Aus / NZ final really, though my home nations loyalty is now transferred to Ireland- I can't bring myself to shout for Wales.
