    @sparky be the perfect way Fozzie to end his coaching stint , losing to Italy and the All Blacks not even getting out of the pool stages , on saying that I suspect they the Blacks should go through but the misery will end in the quarterfinals that I’m 95%-100% sure of.
    Glad to be proved wrong , but I suspect it’s what a lot supporters are thinking.

    Even Fozzie's flops should be able to escape this pool, surely?

    What if France tank the game against Italy.....

    I’ve had technical issues leading up to the games so have missed the anthems. What’s wrong with them ?

    Sounds like a children's choir singing them and adding harmonies and rounds. Fucking awful.

    It’s a children choir. Which is not so bad. But they sing a Capella. So you get “allons les enfants…” then the second wave kicks in with “allons les enfants…” and you get out of sync and overlapping and bewildered players and spectators. Just kills the anthems.

    Apart from the All Blacks result obviously, I’m loving this tournament so far. So much great Rugby, so many talking points.

    While having a ( already quite desperate ) think about how Scotland can make the quarter finals I had a think about Ireland too.

    They’ve got the easy beats out of the way. They have a tougher match coming up against Tonga but then shit gets interesting.

    A MASSIVE match against the Boks which will most likely decide first and second…..but then if Ireland beat SA ( a match that is too tough to call ) they’ll then have to back up and beat Scotland which is definitely not a given to top the pool.

    If they make the quarters that’s five tough matches in a row to win the cup.

    If this happens they’ll definitely deserve it.

    I’m going to call it. SA to beat Ireland handily enough.

    @Billy-Tell Boks will be up for revenge having succumbed in their last match against Ireland in 2022. They will have a point to prove.

    If Ireland win against Tonga, that’ll be 15 wins in a row. Beat the Boks for 16, Scotland for 17, win the QF for 18 and match the current record. Anything after that sets a new record.

    Come off it mate. I can just about imagine Ireland beating the Boks, but winning a quarter-final? That's delusional

    Because it's an abomination and a crime against rugby?
