Yippee, Les Bleus are now Les Cocks and are on their way home due to the English ability to play tactical rugby in a monsoon. I bet Michalak feels a mighty bit narked at the moment.

Seriously, good game and good to see the English simple cummin at'cha and grinding the French down.

But as for Mr Dominici, cheating rascal trying to hit Billy Whizz like that - not simple the done thing you know.

As for the Aussie/Kiwi bash, the Aussies upped their game when they needed to, came on like a freight train and on that performance, would have taken out ANY team in the competition. The kiwis couldn't get into it, but hey ho, the Kiwi/French game on Thursday will be a corker, as both teams have pride to play for.

As to the final, dunno. The Wallabies looked awesome, but they took a lot of injuries to get that victory. I hear the bookies are currently making England 7/4 favourites to win.

I think we will win, it will be close and a visciously physical game, but at the end of the day, English experience and defensive solidness will win the day.
