Only a week to go ....will Japan beat Russia :happy1:
As long as the best team wins and its quality rugby :)
I'll be watching, :boogie: as many as I can. :onya:
Same Col. Can't wait for it to get under way.
The game they play in Heaven the car stickers say. Guess thats why not many Ausies watch it. :laugh:
So l was wrong Grog, thought it was Fiddly Winks.....guess they play that before they get there. :thumbs_down:
Probably a more interesting bunch of people in the basement anyway.
Big game tonight. Ireland are the only team to have beaten the All Blacks twice in recent times.
lts starting to get interesting now :cheers:
Viva la Wales ....... :onya:
Go the United Nations.....l mean Japan.
England vs Straya .......hmmm 50/50 :whatever:
A Scotsman walks into a bar........there is usually an Englishman,Irishman and a Welshman too but they are still at the World Cup :)
You jock baiting again Notty :whistling:
Feel a bit for the Irish. Thought the game would have been a lot closer. But forget the scoreboard. Your captain Rory Best is a true legend of the game he and his team gave it their all, not once did they ease up. Well played lreland.
:clapping:
On to next week and England for the men in black.
Someone who will remain nameless did send me a very funny picture earlier ref the Wallabies and rugby....
I'm not going to post it on here though and risk loosing a lot of friends from NZ :rofl2:
C'mon Froudy be brave....... at worst you could only lose two.
Was this it Steve? had it from my English Mate :bugga:
If youd bet $10 on Japan to win 5 games. Would now sit at 35 to 40k.
True Grog. Japan did exceedingly well, possibly because of a few imports & Jamie Joseph steering it, but great result for a minnow rugby country. Think they just out grew their pond & now want to play with the big guns.
Next fixture, NZ to beat England by 15 at least, & South Africa to beat Wales by 10-14. Had to revise as even the Welsh coach isn't hold out hope of a next win. Sorry Notty.
Froudy, bung it up, all fun here.
Just heard the Quarter Final results are finalised.
England meet the All Blacks in a semi-final.
Australia meet Ireland at the airport........
Sorry..... :facepalm:
Thats good Col, very clever.
Got the low carb beer in the fridge and looking forward to a huge game.
Go the All Blacks :worshippy:
Rode with a kiwi mate at golf today. Hes all fired about All Blacks tonight. Hes a bloody good golfer but i beat him. We didnt talk much about Oz at Cup. Not much to say really.
That didnt go to plan.
Well played England.
C'mon the Welsh
I'm not a lover of rah rah but that was a bloody good game. Well done the Poms.
Outstanding game, not often the All Blacks get beaten, but hey - what a result!!!!
C'mon England !!!!
😪😪😪😪😪😪
Well done England. Good luck in the finals.
Good game Our Lads. Well played.
😪😪😪😪😪
Sent by my English friends :bugga:
Well done England, certainly deserved that win. Eddie had their number n it showed.
True that Col. Lucky we didn't lose by more really. Couple of tries disallowed and some handling mistakes could have seen an embarrassing score. But for an English error it could easily have been a down trou........ :facepalm:
A week ago a Welsh friend of mine was celebrating what he believed was going to be a Welsh win in the final against the All Blacks.
His last words that day was " well at least we ( wales ) have got a better chance of getting to the final than you.
I bumped into him today about half an hour after the final whistle. He was very quiet. I wasn't.
:rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2: :rofl2:
England were the best side in the tournament - as for Wales, got further than Scotland and Ireland and won the 6 nations . Suspect SA will try and slow and spoil the game in the final. Good luck to England :)
I'm hoping England smash Sud Efrika.
Now we get to play Wales...... for the spoon :onya:
Well looks like Eddy found the Kiwi play book and used it against them. It was a good game and Referee wasn't controversial and made fair decisions for both teams. I think that's Kiwi's first loss in a World Cup since 2007.
One Kiwi fan was so sure they'd win he got 2019 tattooed on to his existing tattoo from the previous years on Saturday morning. :facepalm: :doh: :whatever: Ohwell :stir:
I know it's cliché but I do hope for a close final with fair minded play by both teams and the referee :onya: :onya:
Yet more from my English friends :bugga:
I'm hoping England beat Sud Efrica too.
I live in Wales and Mrs F says it wouldn't be wise to fly my St George's cross flag for the final...Hmmm, we'll see :devil:
That's great Notty, I like that & am gonna plagerise it.
Yep England for me too :winner:
My neighbour is from Sud Efrika and he is a prick, his wife is even worse :upu:
Sorry Wales lost, although I don't think they played as well as they can today. I like the engraver joke - will send that to my nephew. He was born in Swansea to English parents and thinks he's Welsh!
Come on England :onya:
Congratulations to South Africa :)
