well, I'm gonna have to lean towards Ireland in that one
Rugby is a team sport....relying on one player to carry a team is a futile exercise I'm afraid
All Blacks should dispose of Georgia without any concerns.....no injuries would be huge bonus!
Samoa v Japan is a bit of a coin toss for me......Japan ftw
RSA v Scotland will be a good match.....RSA are a real threat after their hiccup against Japan. Jean De Villiers is gone, but they have 3 amazing midfielders to step up into that role. Picking them to win convincingly and make a bit of a statement.
England v Aussie is a huge game and will have a final's like atmosphere at Twickers. Poms have their backs to the wall, their own media tearing them a new one and desperate to win this game to keep their hopes alive in their home world cup.
TBH, I can't see them beating the Wallabies.....man for man across the park they lose. The breakdown is so crucial in modern rugby and Pocock and Hooper just dominate that area......no one in the England team comes close to them.
Wallabies backline.....if it fires is lethal and they love the "Big Game" atmosphere - picking them to win well and make a statement also!
Have a great weekend and enjoy the footy!
