Had the England game on yesterday at work, really enjoyed watching it. The biggest lol came when my coworker went outside to check on something and missed the last try!

Enjoyed the Wales/Georgia game but Australia is going to be a bigger issue. Me thinks one big problem for Wales is injuries. France/Argentina my favourite game so far.

Something kamikaze about the way the Japanese play rugby but good for them. Interesting captain - strange how South Africans have carte blanche to play for anyone in any sport !

Absolutely as that is the World cup is all about as it was wonderful seeing the fans facial expressions during the match and after the match.:D

Most International sides have several players of differing nationalities playing for them now.

At 28-7 down after 43 mins, I bet the Scots are wishing that the Japan match had been cancelled and declared a draw, due to bad weather.

Japan beating Scotland made me lol.

Quarter finals:

England v Australia
New Zealand v Ireland
Wales v France
Japan v South Africa

I predict the semis will be Australia v New Zealand and Wales v South Africa with a New Zealand v Wales final.

I dunno if the French will be good enough to beat Wales, but who knows. Nobody would have bet on Japan beating Ireland or Scotland, and look what happened there.

The French on their day are capable of beating anybody , They don't have the overall consistency of Wales but in a one off knockout match they tend to raise their performances as previous tournaments have shown.
