Imagine Japan and Samoa qualifying!
They did well to stem the Aussie tide after they came back from 26-8 to 26-22. Great defence, then managed to control possession for the last ten minutes. They'll probably fuck it up against Fiji though! Or Uruguay!
If it had gone on for a bit longer, i think they'd have been in with a shout!Canada nearly beat New Zealand!!!
Just kidding
You are the first to mention Australia on the thread. My money is on them to lift the trophy...played very well in defeat...gathering a head of steam gradually I reckon.Wales with a narrow win over Australia. Really good game.
England aren't pushing themselves too hard imo. They're just letting Arg blow themselves out as they're having to work really hardEngland starting to pull away from Argentina, not pretty rugby but effective.
The Argies are tough but England should score more tries second half.
& one just after 1/2 timeEngland will score a couple of tries in the last 10-15 mins when the argies run out of steam
and theres the second& one just after 1/2 time

It’s a shame but it begs the question as to why the tournament is being hosted by Japan during typhoon season (note: I know nothing about the seasonality of Japan as a whole, just seems odd).Game off. Probably the only sensible decision. It’s a more difficult one for the Scotland Japan game.

June to October apparently, with July + August the most likely.
Ah, so almost impossible to cater for the entire tournament outside that window. Fair enough.
Or the other side of the coin...they don't suffer a humiliating defeat at the hands of Japan as well as come home earlySeems very unfair that Scotland could be eliminated for weather reasons!

It will be just as well - It would only play havoc with their kilts. And explode a few 'myths', no doubt.Seems very unfair that Scotland could be eliminated for weather reasons!
I can see Japan making the final... think they've got enough about them to see off South Africa, Wales or France.My last 4. England - All Blacks - Wales - South Africa. You watch they'll all lose !
Never write off Ireland in sport. The fighting Irish !I won't write Ireland off yet!
We have the All Blacks in the quarters next Saturday. We've beaten them the last couple of times we played them. If we get past them again, then we face either Australia or England in the Semi's. Can't wait for next Saturday! Bring it on!Never write off Ireland in sport. The fighting Irish !
