Rugby(union that is) what about the World Cup

Post by Birinair »

I am not going to be able to get downunder for this :( , worse than that the Matches are all on in the middle of the night so I won't be able to watch them in the pub :x . But worse than that Wales are in their worst form ever! and I do mean ever :cry: And England, God forbid, are favourites to win 8O Can it get any worse :?:

Living in the Land of Nod myself....highlights packages are probably as good as it's bound to get for me as well :(

As for England....I figure that it's a sad day indeed when the Northern Hemisphere would appear to have the upper hand..... :)

Now there's a typical Aussie comment :D

I currently support any team playing against the Wallabies....even the All Blacks ;)

I seem to remember that Hubris leads to downfall, Green and Gold or Gold and Green it may not be your year.

Aussies wouldn't be Aussies without a strong dash of it though :)

Burnt bails never seemed to me to have the same glamour as the wooden spoon! I presume that makes sense in the southern hemisphere?

After the game we played against Samoa yesterday, I don't think we will be favorites anymore - still I'm dreaming of a final against Australia to avenge the final in '91, of course Australia have to beat New Zealand first.

I think that was a good Samoa effort rather than a poor England effort. They're not too bad those blokes.
Do you think I like being this dangerous?

Well the weekend results set us up for my dream final - I'd like to say good luck to the Aussies (but I don't really mean it), I'm sure it'll be a fairly intense build up over the next six days - I wish I could be there. I think we should just shade it, but the form book goes out the window at this stage.

Yeah It was a great game Sky.....the people who bought tickets to the game certainly got their moneys worth.

*side note* Swing Low Sweet Chariot is rapidly becoming a song that i intensely dislike.
