Oz vs Nambia = 25. thanks.

52 dropper was pretty good. It was all over the news this morning, and was a better news story than the one where a Greenie politician swore @ George Dubya Bush.

NZ were pretty impressive vs Tonga today, probably best performance of the tournament by any team. Just about to cheer on Georgia😵

Samoa were very good Engalnd were awful - we will have to improve if we want to win the cup😳.

I would be worried if I were SA though I think they might struggle against Samoa

I said before, if you played a bit of risky rugby and hit England hard early, you can easily beat them. All Samoa needed was better discipline and they would have.

I don't think I'll worry too much. We play a different type of game than England, so I'm sure we'll easily beat them.

I don't think England will ever be "easily" beaten though of course no team is invincible. The return of Richard Hill and Will Greenwood will help England's cause bau our backs do ned to look more dangerous - Oh if only Jerry Guscott was around now🙄

As for SA playing a different style - possibly bit in UK TV we have Francois Pinear (spelling?) as a pundit and he also said that SA would have to play as they did against England to beat Samoa - either way it will be a great match and I am glad that I am impartial to the result - my fingernails have a chance😀

just thought i'd chuck in something about the new nike strips...wtf!?! in the england-south africa game, they had to replace about 4 or so shirts. what's wrong with the old canturbury or koo-gaa shirts? or even addidas? but the nike ones are impractical, and they look crappy too....

The guys wearing those shirts closely resemble constipated prostitutes.My humble view.

The shirts are skin tight to make it harder to tackle opponents by gripping thier shirts and pulling them down to ground. I do agree that the shirts don't seem durable enough and for the average person playing on a rugby team they are impractical. Still the slightest advantage could make all the difference. 😏
COME ON ENGLAND!
