ummmm.... we lose because of BOTH. If we have our ball stolen in the lineout it is JUST as dangerous, sometimes more, depending on field position. If our lineout goes to shit, and the kickers dont have confidence in our own lineout then they won't kick for touch and the game takes a...

Why Does it take 100 hardcore Wallabie fans with PMT to change a lightglobe? :) It is usually the Coaches job to change the lightglobes but due to too much darkness since 2007 the Wallaby fans NOW want it done properly. ok, so I may never win any joke competitions but it won't stop me.

It is a moral dilemma. I want a Wallabies win so much it physically hurts. Against a full strength ABs side the win will be a real statement. another point IF... the ABs lose to us next week I don't want to hear them whinging for the next four years that they only lost because key players...

something about the metal in his ankle not holding up to the job... and this would really be a terrible loss I don't want 'Bill' straying too far from the Tasmin this year.

..... or RSA

LOL - I suffer from accute PreMatchTension and if past RWCs are any gage by Sunday morning I should be totally insufferable. I plan to calm my PMT with early laps in the pool followed by long walk away from other human beings. Why Does it take 100 hardcore Wallabie fans with PMT to change...

There is only ever ONE individual that can be blamed for losses in a Rugby game; and we all know what his name is.

Maybe, it is getting harder, not easier, to work out just what Dingo is up to. Leaving demonstrated quality play like Barnes out seems akin to dropping the likes of say Larkim out of a 2003 world cup; [scratch head] shouldn't happen. Anyhow. Beer is already in the Fridge, so I am ready...

YES! As I predict the outcome of this game to be based on penalty goals Vickers is a big gamble when the short odds are with Sharpe.

QF 1 IRE by 12 - secretly hope for Wales to scrape in and have Welsh jersy to wear for the game. QF 2 ENG by 7 - - nous avons joué comme une merde QF 3 AUS by 6 - dry but no tries; AUS 12 v RSA 6 QF 4 NZL by 25+ - total cakewalk

Sharpe over Vickerman any day of the week for me. He has the experience of captaining the forward pack and breakaways much better than Horwill has ever done in test rugby IMHO. His lineout work is excellent. He has a very low penalty rate against him. Sharpe will be needed in the first five, for...

I just saw the teams names scroll on the banner on fox sports news and thought I saw Berrik not even on the bench! I almost stopped breathing out of sheer anger. Twitter confirmed that Barnes and Sharpe are on the bench. Now. if the Wallabies are without tries come half time I WANT TO SEE...

Happy 80th Birthday Desmond Tutu. I am very sorry that the government of the country that you fought long and hard to free from apartheid has not helped your friend, the Dali Lama, get a visa to come to your birthday celebrations. Because of this effrontery, Australia on Sunday will knock RSA...

Gee, do the Irish have Hooker problems?

not that anyone worth their salt in Rugby would ever admit that they are 'scared' but I will play along here... Samo. Pocock. just to name two.

Yes. Sir does rule. Sometimes despite everyone else scratching their heads going wtf just happened. Bad calls do go both ways and the best we can hope for is that it all works out in the wash. As a rugby nut I don't hold on to the pain for too long when my teams lose or it would take all the...

I watched the game closely, twice, and thought on three occasions that Samoa was totally robbed with very bad ref calls. I guess it does not really matter to unhappy Samoans who made which individual decision, there is only one ref in a rugby game, so he has copped the spray. After Samoa's...

I guess the only defense open to him would have to be.... someone hacked my twitter acount, or maybe just the old school so drunk I can't remember. It just looks like a big spray of anger and hate. If it was just at the IRB, really, who gives a damn as every organisation should be big enough...

Cheers. I thought I just read the Boks line up..... or was that the Irish....... gee so much rugby news on this darn desktop to sort thru ;)

I think it is really considerate of the Kiwis to have us play this all important game in the Green and Gold of the Well caketin. btw... I am waiting for the Wallaby team line up to be announced, When?
