Originally posted by Swiss ToniYes i heard England shall be without some key players, as a Scot, always love to see them getting mauled! Argentina's coach Santiago Phelan has said that he will field his strongest side, gonna be awesome! I wonder how the USA will do, they have twice the number of registered Rugby players as we do, but then again, All blacks have shown for decades that such a comparison is irrelevant.
So are Argentina. Wonder if they'll turn up for the game against England. If they do, it'll be a cracker.

Lol, the Boks shall do just fine, as for Scotland, we are doomed, our best player, Nikki Walker, is injured!

Originally posted by Swiss ToniAs SA, we know what it feels like to have a team choke in World Cups. Very few teams have beaten the All Blacks at home, you should make it to the finals.
Hey, we've already choked and been in the biggest upsets in World Cup history against France. Give Scotland a go - just for a change.
