Big Gaz I hope the hangover wasnt too bad. A great win for your lot. Even with all the injuries and in that group the head to heads were always goint to be vital. I think with anything there is a lot of pressure on England with it being played in England and they havnt put up with the pressure of the big Welsh game. The world rankings are stupid and change weekly. Its a joke to see it at times I think we all know who will be there or abouts. The key games for all the home Nations are Wales v England , Ireland v France in those 2 groups for different reasons. Means the Welsh if they beat the canyon fodder by bonus points then its all good and looks like Wales will get a quater final place. England needs to beat the Aussies but the Aussies looked well in the competition so far and they will be in the English players faces. A brilliant game I think and its make or brake for England the pressure will be huge.
As for Ireland we aint got any bad injuries so far and the wingers are on fire beat Italy at the weekend by bonus points and it makes the French game a big 1 win the group and we are topping the group avoiding the All Blacks and more than likely playing Argentina who have always been a tricky game for Ireland but win that Semi Final and dreams of making a final I better stop now lol.
