Waiting List
1. Sam
2. pullthestrings
3. Bathite

neither has flutey really up until these past 2 games

Gents

I'm back off to manchester on sunday and might not have internet for a while. Should have it sorted out pretty sharpish but you know what a bitch these things can be. I should be able to get a team in but this will explain any possible inactivity.

Might be best off leaving your team with somebody Steve

Will do it tomorrow after predos

Hi all back about. Thanks to prop for getting my team in. Some big deals been done.

Saw England, Wales and scotland games whilst away. Anyone recommend any other games worth watching??

Also does anyone know where you can watch wc games online?? I am off to Canada Sunday and there are some cracking games I don't want to miss !??

Didn't I give you that website Matt? For live try p2p or Justintv

France/Japan game was good, as was 2nd half of Aus/Italy

England team:

B Foden (Northampton Saints); C Ashton (Northampton Saints), M Tuilagi (Leicester Tigers), S Hape (London Irish), D Armitage (London Irish); T Flood (Leicester Tigers), B Youngs (Leicester Tigers); M Stevens (Saracens), D Hartley (Northampton Saints), D Cole (Leicester Tigers), S Shaw (Unattached), T Palmer (Stade Francais), T Wood (Northampton Saints), L Moody (Bath Rugby, capt), N Easter (Harlequins).

Replacements: S Thompson (London Wasps), A Corbisiero (London Irish), T Croft (Leicester Tigers), J Haskell (Ricoh Black Rams), J Simpson (London Wasps), J Wilkinson (Toulon), M Banahan (Bath Rugby).

Thank Christ its not Wilson at TH but not to different to the team Chris picked yesterday. Lets hope Moody lasts the game without getting croaked again

cheers pooly. yes i have that link but was looking for live. England game kicks off about 2 am Canadian time so may try and find a sports bar or watch it live via laptop.

Samoa played some good stuff Matt, but against weak opponents. Fancy Samoa to turn Wales over though. Apart from that clown Sapolu (reason being the amount he posts about how bad Samoa are treated and how everything is unfair on them, not stop moaner) I'm a big fan of them.

If you can't find it Matt it'll be on that website in about 5/6 hrs

I've got a bad feeling here about Japan's resilience.

It's not started well for them, could be 50-60pts.

Woodcock looking a little shaky in the scrum

Woodcock and Franks had trouble at the scrum v Tonga, they might get under real pressure v France. Not the best place to get some form back is the world cup.

Japan should be exciting if nothing else. Playing quickly.

They're proving me wrong at the moment though....luckily they've got Slade kicking and not Carter!! Just need to cut out the silly errors and keep it up for 80mins....I reckon if they lose by 30 it'll be a victory for Japan.

Japan did okay v France. Don't think Arlidge is playing.

Good thing about Owens is he doesn't take rubbish and tends to be consistant.

Nothing wrong with Slades kicking mate, he's normally a 80-85% man. Strange world cup for kickers so far, never seen Wilko miss like he did last week. Only really been Steyn who hasn't had issues.

Kaino & Nonu looking good

They reckon its the ball. Small sweet spot or something.

Expected someone to bite on that!! Yeah the kicking seems to be a problem for the ref as well....stand up Wayne Barnes...oooo controversial.

It didn't go over though prop?? Clearly would have hit the post and how are they supposed to give that. Hook's fault for making such and easy kick (by his standards) go wrong

Cory Jane....best hand off in rugby!

Slade's kick then didn't even follow the direction it should have with his connection!!

Not too happy with Gatland naming the same squad: 14 of them played 80mins so I'd have rathered a couple of changes especially with Geth and Wellies needing gametime.

Crazy, can't blame the ball for that drop though!

It's obvious that Carter's put a chip in the ball so he can control it and remain starting 10.

Not straight! Finally!

Slade's kicking has been poor. Not striking it cleanly at all.

It's crazy how 10's fall apart filling in for Carter. I'm hoping Slade will come through after he's settled down, only a handful of caps. Got a great basics game and good pace.

Wahoo!!!!! Lol

Jane's strength never ceases to amaze me. What a pass from Vito.

Gatland can't afford to make changes. Samoa might start as favourites

Pooly Sailosi's got the best hand off in world rugby!

How good is Conrad! Why can't England have centres like Nonu & Smith!!!

Oh dear...

Wow...

Had to turn it off. No enjoyment in watching a team beat an inferior one so easily.

You should try watching the Falcons Steve

We've got you next week pooly, first game back at the Madejski.

If we don't beat the Falcons at home next week then we are in serious trouble!

They deserve that for pure effort! Bad offload and no defence?!?!

SBW

That was brilliant

what do people think of the England drinking episode?

personally cant see the problem, it happens after every rugby game, at every club and every national team. Its just that its Tindall who is in the royal family that its blown out of proportion...

good or bad from SBW?

Amazing.

Nothing in it Chris. people who don't get rugby.

Got a slagging yesterday in work... How can you support England after what Tindall and the boys were upto?... My response: Sure Tindall is royalty. he can do what he wants in the old colonies

How dare tindall have some beers after a win. Had a journalist chatting on about professionalism in Football and Rugby earlier and saying Football was well ahead.

Footballers just sleep with there brother's wives, beat up DJ's, Cheat on there wives (pregnant or unpregnant) and other general ignorance. Rugby players have a few beers. I know who the better role models are.

Yeh well said Steve.

I think it's more to do with Tindall getting stuck into some bird, don't if it's true but he was supposed to be necking on with some chick.

He was chatting and had his arm round her from what I saw on the news. If he'd doneanything more he'd be put to death for treason. That's a problem for the Royal Family rather than the rugby team.
