Rugby Union World Cup.

Post by New Forester »

I doubt I will have ever been more relaxed watching an England match. I cannot believe we have the slightest hope of getting to the final. I’ll just enjoy watching some brilliant rugby from the opposition. But then we were firm favourites to beat SA in the last final. So might we be in for a pleasant surprise?

As for surprises who would have thought SA would get beaten in the Cricket World Cup today?

As someone once said after England won the Rugby World Cup. Less than two dozen Countries play play Rugby (and we are four of them). Compare that to Football (Soccer to the Americans) over 200 Countries play this type of Football.

It was payback time for our 2003 World Cup win. Imagine how the Australians felt then. Despite our performance I never doubted that SA would win in the end.
