Think he's been staying with Mark Hucklebridge near Bath.

BT is friends with Matt Banahan isn't he Scott? I know Banaham is good friends with Tom Church and all the guys at MotoXtreme in Chippenham.

Mark Hucklebridge... wow I haven't heard that name for about a decade. Didn't realise he was diagnosed with inoperable cancer either, very sad news Sad

big game this weekend, between England and Aussie, if England lose they are gone, if Aussie win it comes down to Aussie Vs Wales next week, if winner will be though, and then it will come down to bonus points, and points for and against to see who goes though in second spot,

the pool of death is getting interesting, Wales can do themselves a whole lot of good with a bonus point win against Fiji, (bonus points are scored by getting 4 or more tries a match)

Yep!! Still stoked. Can't wait to watch the Fiji game later as it'll give us some insight as to our progression in the pool. It's not all over yet though!

Tony did you get my email last night? I blinked and missed whether not it went through??

no bonus point tho, and that would have all but secured a finals berth, Wales could still miss out if England win on weekend, then aussie beat wales next week,

its pretty close, England have won there last 2 matches against them at home, but they have been close,

I would have to say England are slight favorites, but the pressure on them is huge, they are calling this game like the final,

these are the two teams I dislike the most in world rugby, i really don't know who i want to lose more,

well they are the number one team in the world, but there world cup history is not great, esp when they are in the northern hemisphere, in 2007 we got beaten in the quarter finals by France, in Cardiff,

we have only won 2 world cups, (they have been every 4 years since 87) and both of them have been at home,

and to be fair, they have not looked awesome so far, but we have the easy pool, due to our number 1 ranking, i think its pretty close come the knock out stages, and some of the teams can knock over the all blacks, Ireland and Scotland and Argentina have never beaten the all blacks, and Wales last beat them in 1953,

enjoy the moment, will be a good final game vs Aussie,

quarter finals are looking like this,

NZ v Ireland/France
South Africa v Australia or Wales (next weekends loser)
Ireland/France v Argentina
Scotland/Japan (Likely Scotland) v Australia / Wales

Haha yeah that made me laugh.

Aussies highly unlikely, I can't see them losing a game this year. I'm tipping them to win the World Cup.

South Africa, meh, maybe. Depends which side shows up... But if the Pumas can beat them this year I don't see why we can't.

The important thing is we've progressed further than England, so job done and all the Welsh are happy whatever happens next.
