    Well it’s started. England starting soon.

    Fancy us for the semis, a bit like Chippy after a day of cans. All Blacks to win it or to lose it.

    Ireland big improvement so far against the Scots or is it the Scots are just shocking.

    Anyway see if this brasses off CC. :)

    I am struggling to see past NZ. Ireland would be my other pick.

    Wales and England are obviously terrific sides but Ireland and NZ have been the best teams for well over 2 years now. Ireland have proved themselves better than England on quite a few occasions. I know Ireland have had success against the All Blacks and are rightly number 1 on results, but NZ still look the best side. They do throw in a howler of a game now and again like all sides, but on balance I see them winning again.

    The only rider with England of course is we have never had both Vunipolas, Tualagi, Farrell, Itoje all fit at the same time. Difficult to tell at this stage but I get the impression Billy and Manu could be about to deliver a really big performance soon.

    The Japanese tackling is excellent. Fast and around the legs.

    Yes, against the Irish. I support England. If this result makes it harder for the Irish to get to next round then I’m all for it.
