Rugby World Cup 2019

1st quarter final just finished, and England totally eviscerated Oz.

40-16!!

Tougher test next week, Ireland or the ABs

21 September 2019- New Zealand v South Africa

And probably again in the final.

@Trev33

England had a very good game, I'd say it could be England vs South Africa in the final... 🙂

@pawnpaw

It's possible, they're playing the best I've seen them... and to think, wasn't that long ago that Ireland was winning the 6 nations and England were getting beat by Scotland. How fast things change, except for NZ who are always amazing.

@Trev33

You are a year out , Trev. In 2019 England beat Ireland in 6 nations, and tanned them in a pre WC warm up game.

Having said that, I predict a Blacks v SA final. I think England will not roll over quite so readily as Ireland did, though.

well bugger me, didn't think we had a chance

@Wycombe-Al

I'm *very* happy to have got that prediction wrong. Quite a few sorry-looking AB fans in London today.

Well, my prediction still stand.

😀

@Russ

next saturday going to be messy, drinking in the pub from 8am and carry on all day, win or lose!!

What a performance that was, NZ completely dominated. Could have been won by more... play like that and I can't see SA or Wales beating them but finals are funny things.

Watched England beat NZ live last night.
What a game!
I was nervous at half-time that England hadn't put
more points on the board but what a great performance!

Surely that was "the final"?

So my prediction rolls out... England and South Africa in the final...

😀

@Russ
Yes, theres a housing shortage in Niew Zealand today, thousands of AB fans came down back to earth...
