So are Argentina. Wonder if they'll turn up for the game against England. If they do, it'll be a cracker.

Yes 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.

a.k.a. "Old"

I think we are a serious contender to keep the cup, but it's gonna be hard.

Last WC the boks had to leave behind one of our best loose fwds due to injury and one of our best centres was injured in the 1st game and was sent home. You guys could still finish 2nd in Pool B, unfortunately then you get to play the All Blacks in the quarters.

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.

As 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.

Scotland looked terrible. Felt sorry for Romania to lose with two late tries.

Yeah, they never seemed to hit top gear, but that's understandable if you look at the opposition.

Sonny-Bill is a damn quality player.
