I'm still not as convinced as you, i also like your confidence on a semi final place if you get to face England!

i said earlier that england will think the same thing. but im very confident we will beat england

I'm not confident at all that we'll beat anyone anymore, it's made rugby alot more enjoyable though at the same time!

i know, i wouldnt say iom confident, id just fancy our chances more than if we were playing anyone else lol.

but if ya think about it, for the next world cup in 2011, wales and england are looking pretty good

4 years away! How can you tell?

Wales might not make it to the Quarters.
England should. As should Scotland.
Ireland will.

I think it will be like this.

QF 1 - Australia vs England
QF 2 - New Zealand vs France
QF 3 - South Africa vs Fiji
QF 4 - Ireland vs Scotland

SF 1 - Australia vs New Zealand
SF 2 - South Africa Vs Ireland

Final - New Zealand vs South Africa

Winnners - New Zealand

I could even see Ireland in the final.

I agree with that Scaley, although i think South Africa will win!

you really think that wales will loose to fiji?

its more likely england will loose to samoa or whoever! and ireland will be lucky to get out of their group, i think argentina will definatly go thourgh so framce or ireland will miss out. they have an awsum record in france.

I couldn't agree more - as I've said previously, if Wales are not at full strength for this tournament, they will struggle to beat fiji, and thus will struggle to gt out of their pool. As for either Ireland or France missing out, somehow I just can't see that happening - these 2 both need to progree for the unlikely event of a northern hemisphere side to win it. Still can't look beyond the mighty All Blacks though

we aint going to get close to winning the thing, but seriously i dont no how you can under-estimate wales.

everyone does it, and its when we are good, really looking forward to coming on here after we've beat the aussies topped out group and get enlgand in and make the semi then get stuffed lol.

cant wait!!

your talking about the wrong type of rugby league is the better game Cmon the wire (warrington woves)

I think we have been here before oliver. Each to their own. Dont try and start an arguement.

Another terrific game in the tri-nations today, and, as much as I adore New Zealand rugby, I was happy to see the aussies match them, and, eventually outplay the aussies. Unusually poor game from Dan Carter...but still, I got to see Luke McAlister play from the start, and he is truly an awesome talent and brilliant athlete

Well done Australia, excellent comeback

the all blacks have shown they are beatable the last two weeks which is great for the world cup! carter is way out of form at the moment, last 4 games he aint been the sual self, same goes for mauger and they are the two key men who set all the of new zealand attacking play and keept he defence sound. that is the reason the have been run so close the last two weeks and i think austrlaia and s.afrcia have show the rest of the world how to beat them!

run through them not around them

I've been saying for a long time that they are very beatable, tight defense, no mistakes and you've won, although that could be said about beating any team!

funny thing is though, austallia didnt realy do any of them

it has been coming, the springboks should of beat them the other day, new zealand got lucky, there luck run out against aussies tho lol

ospreys rule

get sum league talk goin. league is a real mans game not union tht is jst a game of kick n chase n pile on (things you do wen ur in primary school ffs).

n if u disagree with me n think tht league is not tougher n better than try playing it. its more technical requires more skill n is for REAL MEN that can giv n take a hard tackle.

LEEDS RHINOS

Start your own thread about it then...

Exactly what Niall has said, we like to use this to talk mainly about union as most people on the site watch it. Although feel free to talk about league on here, just keep the chat nice, or make it more clearer when you're joking.
