Yeh i hope WE will make the final,and maybe i have been a bit biased on here

on paper the kiwis should walk it but they always bottle it when it comes to the crunch (france 1999, australia 2003). isn't that right scott?

p.s. if england even reach the semis i'll eat my hat.

mmmmmmmmmm hat.............

But there is no side in the world that can compete with the All Blacks if they play well.

All Blacks ................ All time classic chokers.

New Zealand are clearly the best team but have usually been the best team before a world cup only to choke (haven't won since the first one).

Ireland have a terrible draw (France and argenina) and if we come second we get New Zealand - bye bye. Ireland have a great team but the squad can't sustain injuries.

It is between NZ, aussies and France. I think France will do what they did against Brazil in 98 in football and beat the best team in the world on home soil.

Ireland v England at Croke park in a few weeks will be strange. For any visiting English fans, that is the stadium where English forces shot randomly into the crowd during a game killing 16 people in 1921, hence the name "hill 16" at one end of the stadium

I know its ancient history but it will still be a historic moment, hopefully the athmosphere will be sporting.

great win yesterday,hard fought in the end but wasnt good enough if we can win anything this year

England look better than they have been over the last few years.

Should be a three way fight. Luckily we are at home for the two "big" games but if O'Driscoll is out, we are in trouble.

Johnny makes England a Team.... If ever one man galvanises a country it's this bloke. That performance on Saturday was outstanding given his history over the last 3 years. I know the Jocks are no great shakes but they beat us last year.... I'm not saying we're suddenly favourite to take the 6 Nations but France and Ireland will be looking at us differently to what they were in the Autumn...

:cool:
