Cant wait!

Friday 16th - Wales should obliterate Samoa - thinking by at least 20 points

Saturday 17th- England should beat Australia, South Africa will beat Scotland, France will beat Argentina - will all be close games I'm guessing except South Africa vs Scotland?

Saturday 24th - South Africa will probably come out on top of England, NZ will beat Wales, France will beat Samoa, Ireland will beat Argentina (could be quite close) Scotland should beat Tonga - never seen Tonga play? haha

Saturday 1st - NZ will beat England, Wales will beat Australia.

Your thoughts @Ardemax; ?

Judging by the way we played against Argentina, we don't have a hope in hell of beating the Aussies haha.

I thought Scotland played alright against NZ, but I can't see them topping SA.

England, although playing a weakened Fijian side have shown they're 4th in the world for a reason and tbh there's no reason why they can't beat SA, unless they go in for stupid tackles and get binned.

Meh. Not a proper answer but I'm still down after watching us play so hopelessly. Waste of money! haha

I'll only watch England v New Zealand and australia plus New Zea v Aus.

Haha only the best

You forgot NZ vs Italy btw Sat 17th which is pretty pointless cause we all know we should beat Italy by at least 30 points

Oh, also @Ardemax; to be fair Australia have been playing crap recently - except the game against us lol but we played terrible, would be good to see you beat Australia, definitely a possibility.

No way scotland will beat SA, massive upset if they do.

England probably can beat SA, thats true. South African kickers have been shocking lately which loses games (and wins them), biggest game I'm probably looking forward to is NZ vs England, NZ vs Wales and Wales vs Aussie - would be good to see Wales beat Aussie, they have got so close so many times; they definitely deserve it. Wales is a much better team and more consistent imo.

Anyone know if Wales vs Samoa is on BBC tonight on the red button or something? I don't want to watch this Children in Need crap.

Again, another ticket wasted. I don't even know what's wrong with us, losing the last 5 international games.

I'm pretty sure it's got something to do with losing Gatland though.

Also Priestland is terrible, just terrible.

Should be a good day of rugby today hopefullyyyyyy

Gatland is bloody awesome - thats the main reason Wales is doing good imo. If he came to the NZ rugby team - I reckon we'd be literally undefeatable - even though NZ hasn't lost for like 16 tests or whatever only the draw to Aussie.

Can't wait 3 hours (or so) till NZ game, should be interesting. Staying up till 5am just to watch it

Woo lee so am I, come over. bring mcdonalds! I am watching the NZ Maori V Championship XV in the meantime.

EDIT: wtf, Gatland may be good but he is not All Blacks worthy. Steve is good anyway, keep him till next world cup please.

NZ maori was boring lol, owned them too bad, how about you bring me maccas even though this post is mega late.

and uhhh Gatland is All Blacks worthy - not as head coach maybe, but assistant, considering he is from NZ it'd be good to see him. this game is close then I thought its like 30-10 10 mins to go

42-10 ahh nvm lol
