Now, Rugby World Cup 2003, this is serious. Yesterday, the Australians thrashed the All Blacks and have a place in the final. This morning England face France and unless there is more determined play we may see France win. So far the English team, with some exceptions, has not been playing their best, yet they are capable of going through. Martin Johnson's team will need a good gameplan from the start. The Fench team hasn't faced tough competition yet either, so this should be interesting. In the end it should be good rugby I want to enjoy the game, and since I have interests in France and love the country I have to say I don't mind which team wins. Let's see some good rugby.

England are crap as always.
Let me qualify that statement, all I seen so far is kickin' the ball to the french half.

:Yes: - the French full back is too good a kicker to continue with that tactic - on the other hand with conditions so bad it may force a handling error? The conditions are making it a very scrappy game so far - but at least we are in the lead!
England just shading it at half-time as the score of 12 - 7 reflects, not sure the French try was legit anyway.

Jonny Wilkinson should be awarded a knighthood by the Queen & Tony Blair immediatetly.
Excellent game, well done England Martin Johnson's team played magnificently. Remember this was played in perfect rugby conditions, pouring rain mud what a joy!!!!!!!!!!! reminds me of my school rugby days.
Australians next and England will win!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, I got the finalists correct, just have to hope that my tip for the eventual winner is wrong. But I am never wrong,:p
