Fiji did England a big favour yesterday and it's now all or nothing tomorrow night. We can sneak a win (out of adversity) and recover our pride. If we don't we don't and we can then look at what went wrong, but right now I'm getting behind our lads!
I can actually see us doing it saying that - I just don't know how or why - more a gut feel thing than any real rationale. Edited by The Sash (02 Oct 2015 11.20am)

I really enjoyed that game up until Wales got the 10 point gap. If only they had a more reliable fly-half than Volavola.

Wales wont beat Australia, if they play like they did against Fiji, We could if Lancaster keeps his nerve, its that finely balanced.

I know that, but thanks anyway My point was if we can win, my guess is they won't they looked utterly f***ed against Fiji and are down to the bare bones, even there kicker came off with what looked like a calf strain.

If we beat the aussies I want the Welsh to do the same. It was my ideal scenario pre World Cup that we could dump one of the SH teams out at the pool stage.

Hmmmm tricky one however, the amount of dogs abuse I got from the taffs, and am still getting is to be honest, making me want the sheep rapists to get pulverised by anyone, anyone at all. And if the flip flop Brigade stuff them and break bones, to be totally blunt i will be f***ing over the moon.

It's taking one for the NH, but the best part is we'd have a chance of revenge in the final. And that would be the best possible final this tournament could have!

Wales wont beat Australia, if they play like they did against Fiji, We could if Lancaster keeps his nerve, its that finely balanced. But they won't play like that against Australia. They played Fiji on four days rest after the hardest game they've played in a very long time. They're playing Australia on a full nine days rest. It makes a MASSIVE difference in rugby. This is why I've been banging on about ridiculous scheduling damaging the credibility of the tournament. This is why I said England (who play no games on four days rest) have what amounts to a point advantage over both Wales and Australia (who each play a game on four days rest.) Lancaster has already lost his nerve. Ford, once again, is not in the side. Nevertheless, I have still taken England to win.

Wales vs. Australia: Hoopcock vs. Breadiate will be worth the price of admission alone.

I think the England match is so tight the draw at around 20/1 is not a bad bet.
