I'm looking forward to this one, the pundits say it will be a very physical game, I think England will win but only by a small margin
Could have gone either way, why England didn't go for the penalty at the end I don't know, they still had time for further play after the penalty. Never mind, lets see which teams go through
Knocked out of our own World Cup by the Welsh! Since we can't even beat Wales at Twickenham we won't beat the Aussies.
It's the world in union. The world as one. Quite a catchy song still ringing in my ears. Very exciting in town when Rugby's here in Gloucester.
In a way it is a good thing that England have to beat the Aussies to stay in the World cup, if they can beat the Aussies they can go on to win the tournament again. Trying to remain positive here
I'd say the all blacks should win this world cup. Don't know much about Rugby union though, Played it in the army for my company but had not a clue about the rules, just the basic stuff like passing back and run with the ball and tackling.
Looks like Wales team is gonna need all the rest they can as they will have to take on Aus or NZ at some point. So far our boys have been bruised and beaten, yet have bravely ploughed on.
Isn't it remakable that I don't espect anything from the Italian team??? It feels nice when they win the odd game, but on the whole, rugby in Italy is still in its infancy and it will take a good while before more (italian) media friendly sustainable results can be achieved. If, on the other hand it was footie, I would scream and abuse them like a demented banshee if they come back with results like that...
A;ex, my eldest son, and I, started supporting Italy on principle, when they joined the Five Nations. They have come on a lot.
Ah well, back to the drawing board eh? It must be said though, group A was a particularly tough group. Al.
No excuses for England all the hype and got what. I'll stick to the all blacks winning let's hope the welsh do well also.
besides the sniffing they do of course have a real rugby team https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philippines_national_rugby_union_team
