36 minutes in and it's England 3 Argentina 6

Looks like they'll just manage to avoid losing. That Nike away kit with the numbers peeling off the back and gay white boots makes them look like low-rent All Blacks - not a good look anywhere but especially not in NZ.

Came through in the end, fair play to the Bargies, they played well.

Thought Ben Youngs changed the game in Englands favour when he came on.

Some woeful kicking by both teams. Wonder how much the enclosed stadium attributed to it.

Can see the Argies doing the Jocks.

Ireland beat the Aussies today meaning if they beat Italy it is likely to be a Ireland v Wales/Samoa quarter-final.

Although I'm not particularly confident that we'll beat Samoa from past experience.

I'm in Sydney and watched the Aussies lose in the pub here. Feck that was a magic afternoon!

I went in there saying I really didn't care and tried to be inmpartial but it was hard not to be smug when they were loosing. I really couldn't help it. Few Irish supporters and me beaming!

 

[Cate Fox]

Yay, my second team

I'm sure I've mentioned this before, but I was in a house full of Australians (one of whom had spent the previous two months saying how shit England were) when some blokes in white won the World Cup in Sydney. Very satisfying.

Only just. Still got to beat Fiji though, a feat that eluded us in 2007.

Only just what?

Beat Samoa. The clues are in the words.

Aye. I forget we've got foreigners writing on here.

Scotland lose against Argentina :icon_lol:

Now means they need to beat England by 7+ points now, which won't happen.

It looks like the QFs will be
Irleand v Wales
France v England
SA v Australia
Argentina v NZ

This would mean a southern hempishere team vs northern hemisphere final.

That must have taken some planning.

Well at the moment Scotland will win by more than 10 points - England are playing shit Wilkinson ahs missed 3 penalties and Scoland are all over us like a rash. 6-0 at the moment but it could be much more. England look rabbits caught in the headlights.

 

[GazLCFC]

England win

 

[Motown Fox]

England win

They were bloody lucky though

 

[Steven]

England needs a new coach to build for 2015. This has been a woeful tournament for England for so many reasons, particularly the rugby as far as I am concerned. :icon_conf
