Scotland taking World rugby to court sueing for the embarassment caused having being beaten by the hosts

It's great that they are holding this tournament in Japan as they obviously have a passion for the sport.
I love that their support seems to be family oriented with men, women and children enjoying it.
I wonder if they will ever hold the tournament in Argentina?

I see what you did there! Yep, Japan is in the Orient! ;)

England beating the Aussies, got close at the start of the second half when there was one point in it, but England picked up and controlled it.

Not a massive fan of Rugby but watched the game this morning.

Surprisingly enjoyable and England were a credit to the cou try.

I'm sure Australia could've done better though, they gave away at least two tries and could've been a different game if that didn't happen.

England v Aussies quarter final. Going to be a cracker. I said Japan may cause some shocks. Still wide open though, but surely the All Blacks are the team to beat still ?
Thought England had it rather easy today - but can only beat what is in front of them. Australia just did a Cov & kept playing into England's hands.

NZ will be a different kettle of fish entirely. We can plan for what game they start off with, but they can & will adapt throughout the game to whatever we might throw at them.

NZ win in the versatility stakes, we will have to be at the top of our game & hope they aren't at theirs to stand a chance imo

The semi finals are hard to pick winners from. I want an England v Wales final obviously but I went for an All Blacks v South Africa final at the start so I'll stick with that. Hope I'm wrong !

Looking forward to Saturday’s game. Less so the final as I’m helping set up the local bonfire in the morning and didn’t even give it a thought that it might clash with the RWC final.

Not long now. Can't wait for both matches. The All Blacks are sounding confident as usual, but Eddie Jones loves being an underdog. Both games will be tight I reckon, so hard to call. My head says South Africa v All Blacks final, but my heart goes England v Wales !

This brilliant. Unreal performance. Got Skyscanner open. Promised myself I wouldn’t do it but I’m very tempted.

That was just immense - Absolutely immense! I don't believe it's possible to replicate that performance one more time. Ironically, probs the only team in the world that could - NZ.
The old hackneyed phrase of 'winning ugly' may be what we'll witness for the final.
So tempted to start on the ale now. Strong cup of tea I think till I've had a look at the guttering problem.
