    I got bored at half time watching their game and did some work instead after the break, look impressive going forward when they have the ball, quick backs, Wales have the game to beat them and currently England bottle it on the big occasion, I'd fancy Wales to beat them at this WC, can only see NZ or SA winning this tournament however.

    I think England are the only team with the capacity to test NZ.

    I also think that Wales; NZ; Aus & SA could beat England.

    England look great going forward when their pack is dominating. They won't dominate those teams up front.

    Wales v England will be full of too much 6 Nations type emotion and could go either way.

    New Zealand remain the team to beat and they look impressive. That last try today was unbelievable and would not have looked out of place in a 7’s tournament.
    The dark horse has to be France. They have looked mediocre at best and disinterested at times, especially in the current match. Yet time and time again they suddenly explode before then imploding in the next match. On the basis the next match is a bit of a dead rubber whoever gets them in the knockout phase may get the fright of their lives.
    All said and done this is turning into a very decent and competitive World Cup.
