I Can Feel An Upset Coming On!

[In the Rai!]

Just a couple of predictions on the huge rugby matches we have this weekend.

New zealand to go down to France (will be outclassed) It will shatter their confidence and wont come back from it, and as a result will lose to Australia in yet another World cup encounter.

Australia to get it together and smash Ireland will be the first step in retaining their 3rd world cup.

South Africa to narrowly defeat England bringing England to yet another succesive loss in a row.

I cant wait to read the Kiwi newspapers on Sunday morning.

New zealand to go down to France (will be outclassed)

Result from one week ago

France 3-47 New Zealand

Australia to get it together and smash Ireland will be the first step in retaining their 3rd world cup

I think you will find that only one team (England) has a chance of "retaining" the World Cup

Yes you are correct, we wont be retaining it, we will be winning it for a 3rd time..sorry

I am aware of the result, I just think NZ are a bit too cocky and France will put on a much better show..

I would have thought the French are the coq y ones.

You can dream all you like mate, until you get some proper scum, er, scrum action going, Aussie are not going to win the WC.

Well, unless the Kiwis choke again. And they are definitely champs at that the last couple of time out ?!

yeh but on current form you would have to think that even a choke wont stop the all blacks.

However next year super 14 its a new year and it may be a different year for our scummy scrum..

I still dont understand how we can be that bad, but we are in the scrum.

I don't want to jinx the ABs, so I'll hold my gloating.

However, Aussies are sharp in so many areas; but with a weak scrum it is amazing what a flow on effect that has had.

The ABs have a pretty poor line out record for some reason, but they are strong enough in other areas to cover it up. If they had sorted out the line out this year, can you imagine what some of the score lines might have been?!

Should be another good run for the all blacks, their form is still improving.

Thought the aussies had turned the corner and were on the improve, but after their last couple of performances its just lucky that they have already qualified for the world cup, otherwise the might not have got there

GO THE BLACKS

Well if our front rowers would put down their handbags and start pushing forward, our backs might have a chance. Unfortunately we keep getting pushed all over the park. Our forward pack is weaker than a teabag in the ocean..

I just hope we can get it sorted in time..
