Down and out

Well...this is it for the next four years...England out of the Rugby World Cup and I get to pack away my cap, shirt and flag until next time.

I have to say that I am very disappointed that England has got no further than the quarter finals although I am not very surprised. England have been playing very poorly and whilst they have won their games, it has been without any particular flare or conviction. If they had put as much passion into their rugby as they did their drinking, carousing and dwarf throwing they might have got further in the competition.

Meanwhile...I am about to "discover" a long lost Welsh relative which will give me the right to start eating leaks, wear a daff on my lapel and become a fan of Wales.

Does that mean you're shouting for the Wallabies this afternoon ;-)

Can't wait for the Ozzie vs South Africa game tonight...should be a corker, Sue

Actually...I have my money on South Africa, Wayne...although I am normally a huge fan of Robbie Deans.

A true diplomat -- playing it safe.

Most unlike me, Wayne...I am usually not at all diplomatic when it comes to rugby. For example...I'd laugh like crazy if Argentina beat the All Blacks this evening!

Wayne Mackintosh said...

LOL - but are you willing to put money on laughing this evening ;-)

Sarah Stewart said...

No.....cos I think All Blacks will thrash Argentina LOL
