Tsk, Trev. You are forgetting the team that dismantled Ireland , putting over 50 points past them, a mere 5 weeks ago.
@Blood-On-The-Tracks
If NZ and England both win their group they could meet in the semis. That's if they get past Aus or Wales in the quarters, I just don't see it happening.
@Trev33
You mean to get to the final you have to beat some half decent teams?
Never would have guessed it!
England have beaten Oz on the last 6 (at least) times they have played them. If they can keep their best 23 fit, they have every chance
@Blood-On-The-Tracks
You're calling NZ a half decent team? 😂 only Ireland can beat them 😉
@Trev33
The art of mild sarcasm lost in messaging. As I suspect you know.
Your optimism over Ireland is noted. As is your total ignoring of the fearful battering they took from England just 5 weeks ago.
@blood-on-the-tracks saidI think the small Pacific countries will do better than expected if you're a gambler (Fiji, Samoa, Tonga}. Take them on the line in each game and you should finish in front. Tonga have 45.5 start against England in the next game. Sounds like a good bet to me.

Can't see the Wallabies doing a great deal. The All Blacks seem unbeatable.
@radioactive69 saidWell, nice little collect there. Easy in the end. 13.5 points to spare. On to the next game. Fiji v Uruguay. Uruguay have 29.5 on the line. Won't be enough. Get on Fiji on the line (all up Samoa with 21.5 start against Scotland if you're game). Happy punting folks.

@radioactive69 saidCan anyone tell me how Ireland are ranked above the All Blacks. They've played against each other 31 times with the All Blacks winning 28 times losing 2 with one draw. Laughable.

@radioactive69
I believe the current rankings are based on CURRENT form, rather than going back into the annals of history.
The All Blacks lost recently to both Oz and SA, I believe, in the recent S Hemisphere tournament?
Having said that, is English find it hard to see how Ireland have reached number 1. We hammered them by 40 points v recently.
@radioactive69 saidHmmmmmm...........may have to rethink that strategy. Fiji beaten by Uruguay. how embarrassing. Luckily missed getting a bet on. Game kicked off earlier than I thought.

Personally don't follow Rugby much but love a bet so would appreciate anyone who follows it providing their tips (at the line) for each game.
Go the Aussies (although they probably have a snowballs chance of winning) !!!
