        England Vs New Zealand in the RWC Semi Final. It's happened before.....

        No one who saw Jonah's brilliant quartet of tries in Cape Town will ever forget them.

              Same team as long as no injuries or niggles, pretty much the standard in knock out rugby

                    I am more concerned about this English side than I was Ireland.

                    Although I don't expect we will play as dumb as Aussie did to let England get away.

                    Should be a cracker!

                    When are ref appointments announced...I'd say high odds us getting Garces next week 😬

                      They have to get past 126.8 million Japanese first.

                        Could he be any worse than Owens was last night? Dont answer that...... Owens let them loose in the breakdown and let them off at least two or three dangerous cardable offenses. Meanwhile he pinged us increasingly for all manner of indiscretions, even one he made up to send Todd to the bin!

                        The scores are eerily similar, but the numbers hide the manner of each victory

                          @canefan I will answer

                          Not one of Owen's best, missed a fair bit, but still an average Owens is better than Garces and his mate on a good day.

                            If we had him again I am sure he would be better too

                              Personally, I'd just bloody love Farrell to play the same shit way Sexton did today.

                              That, and a win, would be awesome.

                                Betting syndicate partner is probably more accurate than "mate".

                                        Get on board early, there's a lot of you clambering onto this bandwagon this morning.

                                          In the last decade England have come to NZ for one tour and lost all three IIRC?

                                          Every other match was EOYT when we usually aren't at our best and were all at Twickenham? They won one of them I think?

                                                  Yup we lose to England once every ten years, still got a few before our next one (2003 was previous)

                                                    Your boys struggled past Aussie. Think the Bokke are a class above.

                                                        The real final.

                                                        Nah. SA will be worthy finalists as well.

                                                        Wales have a very good recent record against SA. If they can get by France they will not fear the boks

                                                              So refs ...

                                                              Let's assume the top four refs got the QFs. That's the model they've used post 2007 when they tried to develop a couple of younger refs.

                                                              Backfired slightly.

                                                              On that subject we can't get Barnes for this match which, nowadays, is a bit of shame.

                                                              Leaves Faeces, Nige and Peyper.

                                                              Distinct preference not to get Faeces.

                                                              I'll allow Nige his few indiscretions yesterday but either of Nige or Jaco would be ok.

                                                                Yup, Garces and Barnes semi, Lacy 3/4, Nige the big one
                                                                Not 2011 tho, Joubert got semi and final

                                                                      So with Matt Todd out for this match (apparently will be ok for final if they make it - oh fcuk, and that dreaded other cnut of a match)

                                                                      Assume the same 15 likely to start, and have to think the bench make up wont change greatly either?

                                                                      Either Frizzell or Pat T to come into the bench, meaning if Pat T, SB is loose forward cover, although Pat T power game could be handy v England.

                                                                      1 Reply Last reply Reply Quote 2

                                                                                  Of course I do As I said I believe we will win but this one has some real bite to it
