    We all know the four teams that will be battling for world cup glory in the semi-finals: England, Aus, Sa and NZ. Which of the remaining teams will put on a decent display as they bow out in the quarter-finals? I think France, Argentina, Italy and Georgia/Romania could play some half-decent rugby but won't have enough adainst the big boys.

    wow you are a wum and a half lol.
    New Zealand always seem to struggle in World Cups but having this World Cup in their country will probably push them a bit further. Wales could cause any teams problems however we never seem to be able to consistently do so, If we found form in the World Cup don't be suprised to see us in the semi's or if not going out in the group stages :emoticon-0120-doh:

    I would be surprised to see Wales in the semis, can't remember the last time.
    You're quite right about NZ, and seeing as Aus are England's whipping boys, we might just aswell skip the hors d'oeuvres and have the final now: SA v England, again...
