    Four fantastic quarter finals. England have reached their ceiling I think, but that's fair enough. Each game could easily have gone the other way, though how Fiji's third try was allowed was a mystery. Looked a clear forward pass me.

    I doubt the semis will be as exciting! They look a bit one sided .

    Qell we lost the cricket, we lost at Stoke. Can England do it?

    I can't see us beating South Africa, but its a semi final and anything can happen

    My worry is we tryband take them on with the forwards and with their bench we will get ground into the Paris mud.

    I'd rather we went put and threw it about and tried that that the usual kick, chase, maul
