Hubby's words, yelled at the top of his lungs (as if the coach can hear him...lol) 'Give it to that fecker with the beard!  He'll plow through the Argentinians like they aren't even there!' 

Is that a technical term?

Both England and France have named the same starting line up for the Saturdays semi-final.

I really hope Argentina can beat South Africa as they have been trying for years to join the tri nations so they can play a higher standard of competition on a more regular basis but the arrogent tri nations teams won't let them join. Might be harder for them to decline any futute application from the Pumas if they have gone further in this world cup then any of them.

Agentina are so desperate to play regular top flight rugby that they even sounded out the possibilty of playing in the 6 nations which is not as bizarre as you would think considering most of their team are European based.

It will also be interesting to see what happens with the All Blacks over the next couple of years as half of them are joining European clubs which means they are nolonger allowed to play for the national team.

What does eveyone reckon about the game against france? I reckon it could go either way but with slight advantage to France with home advantage. Agree with you dice about argentina beating SA and it could happen I reckon. One things for sure if we do get through saturday and meet SA in the final its a totally different game than a few weeks ago. The momentum has swung in the opposite direction for both teams and England would have a real chance against them now.

South Africa to beat Argentina is heavy odds on

England France...France favourites at home I feel. Time might suggest we beat a poor Australian team, I don't think Sheridan and co will pulverise the French up front. Given parity there, I think the French will edge it.

Hope not

I can see the Pumas matching the Springboks in the forward game and that should be one hell of a battle in the ruck and mauls. The Pumas may however lose some important possession at the line-outs and worry that if the boks get the ball wide to Bryan Habana he will demolish the average Puma backline.

I however do think that the Pumas stand a chance as I give them the edge in the kicking game and Hendandez may kick some all important drop goals and provide a shock finalist in the Pumas.

Yeah - they suggested that they play their 'home' games in Spain (in either Barcelona or the Basque region). I think the time for this has passed though, as making it a 7 nations now would add two weekends to the schedule.

Oddly enough, South Africa want out of the Tri-nations and would prefer to join the 6 nations as the time difference a) affects their players when they play their away games and b) works out badly from a TV point of view.

But neither of these things are going to happen.
