Anyway done a Dream Team? I've entered one with The Sun, only because a South African I work with kept pestering me to enter a team

I have no idea when it comes to Rugby so chose players starting this weekend, and from 5 of the better teams (only allowed 3 per Country).

I'd love to beat my colleague!

I quite fancy the Aussies with the Boks as dark horses, the All Blacks are famous for bottling it when it counts albeit they do play the best Rugby by far!

I agree with the Blacks comment. All hype, yet they never seem to deliver fully.

As long as England don't win, I don't care. I don't want another four years of "we won"

I'd personally love to see any of the Home Nations win it, especially England, but none of them have a hope in hell

Same, its ashame some people share Welsh Dan's mentality.

I'd rather anyone win it then NZ, Aus, or SA.

No. The problem is, that the English constantly go on about it. They won the Football World Cup once (admittedly, once more than we have) over 40 years ago, and they still bang on about it.

It'd be great if Wales win it, or even Ireland/Scotland, but as said, its unlikely to happen.

I was going to say it would be good if Wales got it too. Not that I really care.

Its a proud moment, and arguably the biggest single sporting achievement in the World. Of course people are going to remember and talk about it for years afterwards. Would be pointless otherwise.

So you're saying if Wales won it they wouldn't go on and on about for the next four years, It's called banter mate, it's just a shame people take it all a little too seriously

It seems that most people took my initial post too seriously as well, although my second one still stands.
