WC Update

Really good Arg-Ire match. The Argentinians have shown that they are good enough to be included (at least) in the 6 nations. I expect them to run through Scotland if they continue to play as well as they have. It will really be wonderful to see them in the Semis. They really do play such attractive rugby.

On the other side - the All Blacks have a dangerous QF against France. That will be a match to watch (actually all matches from hereon are...).

The US has just scored a magnificent interception try against the Springboks. From all the way inside their own 22 in one clean phase. Brilliant stuff. The Springboks are looking untidy today, but I expect them to still ease past Fiji into the Semis.

My prediction for the tournament now:
Semis
NZ-Aus
Arg-SA

Final
NZ-SA

Winner
NZ (please??)
