Donnyboy Posted September 14, 2007 Author Share Posted September 14, 2007 Here's a stat for you to mull over DonnyNZ against SA and Aus in RWC played 5 won 1 lost 4. I think you should be praying for an England win today so you avoid the Boks in the semi. History doesn't favour your chances. ?? Um no MB, vice versa. (perhaps the prospect of a huge impending loss tonight has confused your senses) If England win against SA today,(however unlikely) they will probably top their pool A, therefore, they will probably play Wales, which will probably be RU of Pool B. And Eng will go thru to the semis to play either Fra/Ire/Arg/Scot and, SA being RU in pool A would play Aus the Winner of pool B and the winner of that game will meet NZ in the semi. so, I wont be cheering/praying for England after all, however I will be seeing you @ Tuskers kneeling down with rosary beads in one hand, and a crucifix in the other.

And you, good yeoman, Whose limbs were made in England, show us here The mettle of your pasture; let us swear That you are worth your breeding; which I doubt not; For there is none of you so mean and base, That hath not noble lustre in your eyes. I see you stand like greyhounds in the slips, Straining upon the start. The game's afoot: Follow your spirit, and upon this charge Cry 'God for Harry, England, and Saint George! Massive upset on the cards tonight. C'mon England!!! Got to go to work now see you later Don Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fun By turr I'll be down Sukhumvit for the game, PM me if you wanna join up for a beer or seven! yip. alot of dreamers here. Im in Chiang Mai so cant make it. Will be @ Tuskers for the All Blacks vs Portugal Game today. 100+ today looks likely. Also today, Wales vs Australia- (Millennium Stadium) Wales should offer some resistance for the first half I would imagine, but the Aussies should win comfortably by 40 Ireland vs Georgia- can Ireland improve since their last outing? Hopefully, they can put Georgia away by 40 points. But the Georgians are a big physical side, so it might be less. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boksida Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 Well it was expected. Simply awful. The sooner we go home and sack the lot of them the better. Bit harsh MB. If every English team was sacked after falling in to oblivion after one brief glimmer of greatness, English sport would be in a terrible mess. No more rugby, cricket, rugby league, soccer for instance. I can't ever see there being a world cup for tiddlywinks or conkers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neeranam Posted September 15, 2007 Share Posted September 15, 2007 The Boks looked like they were in a training game. The only are England could match was the scrum. In all other areas, they were dreadful - it really should have been about 75-0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most of it was completely clueless and Robinson aside I don't think any England player performed. It's not as if they have suddenly become bad they have been bad for 4 years and getting worse.
