England to thrash the Argies? or not . . . .?
I'm off for a 2hr ride before the game . . .
🙂
Well Scotland destroyed Romania. Sort of. Eventually. Wasn't very pretty but ultimately a good thing.
Arg v England ? Dunno, will be interesting to see them both play.
I'm off to SA v Wales tomorrow night, should be fun.
I just read the Scotland - Romania match report. I would 😆 but I'll wait till after the green machine embarrass themselves against the US first. 😳
As for today, England to win by...hmmm...20 I reckon.
What time is kick off?
Immense stuff from Japan.
Cracking game here, well, from Japan anyway.
I'm halfway to agreeing with cfh's argument that Japan should be hosting this...
Go Japan, have come a long way

Was just going to say the same thing! 🙂
Will anyone be enjoying the England game with a beer or is it just plain wrong???

aah, the whetherspoon's breakfast
it'll be 6.30pm here - well past beer o'clock...
6hr ride today , after noon nap post-Scotland game, couple of beers and now chopping into a nice Syrah waiting for England game. Looking out the leeks for tomorrow's game.
This is unbelievably disorienting- my brain is genetically wired to support the team in black.. 🙂
Someone needs to be sent off. Shame the Argies can't kick for sh1t.
What's those shit numbers on our kit all about! Someones gonna get a shafting at the kit company!!!
Why do england do this?? 3 penalties in less than 10 minutes! Thank goodness the Argies generally can't kick, or we'd be well down by now!
The England shirts must be knock off stuff, all the numbers have nearly come off already!
And so far their play is living up to the quality of the kit.
OOOps....
they look like american football shirts.
Oh poor show Johnny!
FFS - i really hate this "crouch-touch-kiss-pause-exchange telephone numbers-engage" nowadays!
England are looking ropey, hope they settle down quickly. Looks like poor Contepomi has played his last game 🙁
Yellow!
LOLz
8 penalties given away so far - and now a man down.
come on boys - sort it out!
Why don't they pass the bloody ball? Its like they think they're playing rugby league! Catch and BARGE into the defenders. Bloody awful.
You're lucky that the Argentinians can't kick... 👿
Oooof! 😯
Ouch, wouldn't want Lawes landing on me either!
How did we get the guy from "The Hangover" on our team?

Argentina are taking a battering, England look like they're trying to destroy them instead of beat them 🙁
Argentina are taking a battering,
And taking it well. 😀
Well they can't outplay them! Totally living up to my expectations. 🙁
They are, if they can replace like with like they'll beat England. If this is the best England can produce it'll be a short tournament 👿
Dirty England play shame on you.
If we can't beat em fair then ..... Just beat them??
Ugly rugby will do us proud AGAIN 🙂
It won't do this time.
Wow check out mr Audi during the ad break!! He wouldn't last 24 seconds on this field!!!
This thread needs some lighting up...so here is a pretty girl in the RWC2011 winners kit:

Dirty England play shame on you.
As opposed to just stealing players from the neighbouring nations?
Like Manu Tuilagi you mean? 🙄
I would love to be 2nd row behind that!!!!
Touch...Pause...ENGAGE!!! 🙂
OK.... A naked Maori it appears! 😆
Like Manu Tuilagi you mean?
Stolen or not, Samoa is hardly neighbouring England....
We got the streaker for a couple of seconds but the comentators didn't mention it 🙂
I can't see us winning this.
I can't see us winning this.
I don't know, England's kicking is marginally better.
Edit: oops I'm not sure of that.
pee poor kicking from both. 🙁
I don't know, England's kicking is marginally better.
yep, they're missing by only 5m rather than the Argentinian 6 metres. 😯
I don't know, England's kicking is marginally better.
erm?
I've never seen Armitage look so clueless with the ball in his hands.
Oh, why am i so wound up by this performance? I support the Wallabies, don't I?
see I said that on purpose . . . . 🙂
YES YES YES
Early morning starts, lots of coffee and England's propensity for cocking up really isn't good for my blood pressure!
In the face of the evidence a very flattering and undeserved scoreline, however the fat chick has started singing yet... 😀
Come on guys you can do it.
Keep the chin up, your one 1 point behind. 😀
I think Flood will be getting the nod next game.
8 mins to go . . .
Finally!!!! cool . . . .
thats the way to do it
AWESOME.
Had to cheat at the end to win.
Looks like a win for the drabbest team in world rugby,hurrah.
Well mighty England look good don't they 🙂
Bosh, job done. Who's next ?
😉
Who's top of the group? 😈
Wilkinson found touch to end the game which was quite a surprise
That was certainly painful to watch. I hope they sort themselves out before the next match.
😆
I wouldn't say any of the 'top teams' have looked particularly good so far, the opening games have all been much tighter than I would've expected, telling that this game is the most dour and lowest scoring of them all so far, typical England play really, booooring.... 🙄
Officials didn't think it was a cheat and that's all that matters. A win is a win and that is the bottom line. England need to get smart quickly though.
Scotland hardly shone did they TJ? Or was it the world class opposition that they found tough?
Think i'll go for a ride now, need to get rid of all this extra adrenaline and aggression now!
Bonus point for scotland - I am just watching the game now.
Johnson should check that streakers parentage...he made more space running at the argies than any of his creatine fueled orcs
Too Late, the Kiwis have already signed him from Tonga 🙂
If Wilkinson's kicking stays that bad... Well they've taken the wrong no.10!

I reckon the [i]Other[/i] All Blacks looked just slightly better...
10 debutantes in the team covers the unglamorous scoreline then, good call.
as an aside has anyone got any feeds in english for RWC matches..ie from canada/aus or nz...cos I can't watch this shocking ITV drivel anymore.
Well mighty England look good don't they
I wouldn't crow, because:
a) You're actually English yourself
b) Scotland hardly did much better, against a much poorer side
I wouldn't say any of the 'top teams' have looked particularly good so far,
They don't need to at this stage in the tournament, they just need to win even if it is by 4 points only.
Good thing for a neutral is that the Eng/Sco/Arg group looks very open so should produce some interesting games.
