      I'm glad no-one's mentioned the England v Wales game yet…  😎 😞

          Well played Scotland, desperately unlucky. A friendlier official and you probably would be in the semis. Australia need to get Pocock back quickly.
          Well played NZ, ominous for everyone else.
          Well played Argentina, comprehensively victory over the 6N champs.
          SA - you did just enough to beat a one-dimensional Wales team missing almost an entire backline.

                  It's gotten awfully quiet here….so what do you guys think of the forthcoming final? Exclusive down under affair that it has become. I'm still all for the All Blacks. Any consent or dissent? Bets taken?

                      This is interesting. I better admit right away, I know close to nothing about Rugby and went all by sympathy for the country, and as much as I like Australia, New Zealand has always had a very special fascination for me.

                      So what makes the Kiwis -the Rugby team- so hate-able?

                        I don't hate them, I spent 5 months there a few years ago and would want them to win but there's a kiwi I know who would be particularly smug and unbearable should their third World Cup win come to pass. So petty personal reasons really!

                          Break even point for the All Blacks?

                            Does football need a refreree camera like they have in RWC 2015?

                              The points that @Maynard Friedman and @TrickHell make against the Kiwis don't really speak against the team, it seems to me. The graph supplied by @Aetas seems to show that maturity can pay off.

                              I don't like smugness myself, but such types surely are everywhere….and about the betting....I feel ya, but (as someone who never bets) it comes with the game, no? Better luck next time.

                              Still routing for the Kiwis here!

                                Next RWC Winner will never fit into a 634, that is for sure.
                                But it all begins with a slim cut.
                                Even though, my vote goes to the All Blacks here as well.

                                  but if they lose, Australia is a great team and the only one that deserves to win the RWC

                                        Maynard, the Aussies are the greatest in League Rugby and watching the NRL is spectacular. Just a suggestion soi you dont get frustrated so often when watching the AB's tear a new one into 97% of their opponents

                                            RIP Jonah, one of the greatest I can remember.

                                            Back to the League, well done England on beating NZ at one form of the egg-shaped ball game at last and bringing home the Baskerville Shield for the series victory. It's just a shame that the game I attended in London was the one they lost and generally a little dire.
