Fantastic rugby but also lots of mistakes which is very unlike this Ireland team. NZ are going to be hard to beat. They beat the best team in the world despite two sin bins. Looking forward to France v RSA. Not a clue who is going to win that one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have a northern hemisphere clean sweep this weekend and my prediction journey ends with Ireland narrowly defeating France in the final. 2 Games down 2 northern hemisphere teams down. Hope you didn't put money on it . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just was asked to predict the path to the final for the article below. Shocker yesterday, will see how today's two picks go. I admit I got sucked in to the Northern Hemisphere hype fest.

Toepoke Posted October 16, 2023 Share Posted October 16, 2023 Another great game last night. The last four should really have been NZ, SA, France and Ireland. Although it did mean all the quarter finals were close matches, I doubt that will be the case in both semis! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which was around about the same time that the commentators were starting to get really cocky. 🤣 Almost switched it off myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caledonian Craig Posted October 22, 2023 Share Posted October 22, 2023 What makes me fume is commentators and pundits all enraged about the South Africa penalty decision and how unlucky England were. Are they for real? They should have tried being drawn into a group befitting their world ranking ie getting Ireland and South Africa. When the failings of the draw were talked about the English pundits tended to have no sympathy and say it is what it is. No sympathy therefore for their complaints now.
