AMAZED there isn't one so thought I would get one on the go! Currently watch NZ vs Japan, possibility of them breaking the 100+ point mark!

Who you following and how do you think England's current performances are (despite there stupidly crap game last weekend!!)

England have a relatively easy group so 1/2 place should be a fight betwwen England and Scotland.

Us Welsh have it a bit tougher with Samoa, Fiji and South africa. But if Wales play like last week it should be 1st and second place to SA and Wales.

All of the media attention at present is revolving around Tindall  :scared:

Argentina could easily kick Scotland out the WC imo.

As regards to the England lads behaviour, they are rugby lads, it's what we do best. Messy nights out! Leave em to it!

Next weekend should be a good fixture to test the all blacks with France! Looking forward to that!

Englands Behavour is what were all about as a national rugby team, this isn't football, they don't get paid thousands of pounds to keep hush!

Currently watching Ireland, have a cheeky £10 on them to win by 6 points exactly, currently 9-6 up! 1 more pen or drop goal will do me here!

Brother used to play for Ireland so I have high hopes for them! He now plays in spain on better money so will be interesting to see how he feels now!

Ireland - Cracking win, well deserve and it has CERTAINLY mixed up the fixtures for the final stages now! it needed something like that to mix up the comp and it has! Cracking and well deserved. All they need to do now is believe they can win the competition and they will go far! Shame about Tommy not finishing of that great interception!

England - What a much much better performance, maybe them late nights and midget chucking went down a treat. Good display or rugby, we are such a great team on a quick attack, no idea why we don't play quick flowing rugby all along. We have certainly shown what we can do and how good we are at it, play like this none stop and theres no reason we can't make the final!

Be great to see us and Ireland there but I think Ireland won't believe enough, we will get there I'm confident of that! No games today unfortunately but roll on 7am Saturday and 6am Sunday :( Note to self to not come in after a Saturday night out at 6,30am to wake for a 7am kick of haha!

Samoa are a very hard team to look good against, game was a bit messy but Wales didnt have too many problems.

Just being a Welshman I know Wales have a habit of playing the team they have on paper rather the team before them. Just think Wales don't have too much inventiveness far too much crash ball and the backs sit too deep to gain meteridge.

See the thing with Wales is they don't believe they are as good as they could be, a little like the Ireland team, they need to play one great game choosing there best players over there most experienced. This will give them some sort of confidence that is needed to play like they can!

They have had some great great victories in there time and should be better then they are. Weather it's just not there year or a coaching/management problem I don't know!

Ireland as I said my brother plaid for so I have to support them, always will anyway as it's the old England and Irish thing....Although I'm not Scotland fan :P
