Well done England on making the semi finals of the Rugby World Cup. Last home nation left in. Great effort after being written off before the competition.

Well done England on making the semi finals of the Rugby World Cup. Last home nation left in. Great effort after being written off before the competition.
We were hanging on at the end let's hope France beat South Africa.
The semi will be very difficult, whoever we face. Wouldn't fancy facing France on their home soil.
Better performance 80% of the game, but the other 20% we were utterly shambolic.
Play like that against France or SA and we’ll get hammered.
Fingers crossed, the cricketers have buggered their chances up today.
I watched most of it, we were dog awful. Congrats Eng R/U team, not sure they'll go any further in the competition though but well done for getting there.Quote:

Obviously genuine rugby enthusiasts will be fully onboard with it, but it can't be that easy to get sports fans in general pumped up for an international tournament for what now feels like every 6 months.

I don't think it really matters to us as we wouldn't have beaten either of them, both very good teams, far too good for an (improving) Eng team.Quote:
