    Not the case at all, I couldn't name one player although I imagine there's a Jones and a Williams in there somewhere. I simply cannot stand the game and don't watch at all even when we are winning. Are Wales any good at the moment?

    6 of the team are called Jones, 7 are called Williams. The other two are Tuimgali and Funufanou

    Its a wonder they haven't made them add some extra l's and f's respectively (Tuimgalli and Ffunuffanou) when they were awarded Welsh citizenship.

    I think every team has a few big blokes mate.


    I used to work with a guy who played scrum half for Finchley RFC, he wasn’t very big at all. I asked him once what it was like getting smashed into by 18 stone of steaming beef?
    He said “I’m too quick, they never catch me”, but one Monday he came into work looking like a train hit him, so I guess they catch everyone in the end.

    It’s the ones you don’t see coming that really hurt. I’ve been mashed more than a few times. If I see it coming, I’m ready, even if I can’t dodge it.

    It's only good for the Haka and then it's time to switch off imo.

    Anyway, somebody will win and the players will all drink piss out of a boot because Rugby lads are real men like that.

    If all the cards fall right (haven't checked possibilities), the last four should be NZ, England, Wales and South Africa.

    If Wales get the All Blacks in the semi's, we lose.

    Always do and it will never change. If they don't, they should be finalists.

    Reckon the Boks will win but it's one of those four for me, with Australia and Ireland just behind.

    Will miss All Blacks v Boks tomorrow, it's slap bang during mini's football ffs.

    That’s a shame, really looking forward to that game. But I think they will all be crackers tomorrow. Alarm is set for 5:30

    Aussies Fiji looked a belter, wish I'd got up.

    This one is a great game too, gutted about missing All Blacks v Boks now.
