3. If England win...
I will drink poison and hang myself whilst holding a gun to my head. ANYONE BUT ENGLAND!!

My tip is NZ to win the final by at least 10-15 points. I'm off to France v Fiji tomorrow night!! Woohoo!!

6. All Blacks play at 3:30 tomorrow morning my time
I'll probably sleep through that.

What are the odds of the USA winning a match? :D

7. Depends who you are playing
The USA are up against Fiji, Scotland, Japan & France. You might stand a chance aginst Japan, so long as they don't hire in a load of Sumo wrestlers for the scrum. :evilgrin:

Mind you, can't see the US doing to well without body armour. :eyes:

8. Our ruggers players are a hearty lot
There's no confusing them with American footballers. They don't need no steenkin pads and helmets. :D

Yuck! I detest US football but rugby is a true sport.

There's a bumper sticker that says "Give blood; play rugby".
