I'm pleased Wilko got the nod over Flood, always slightly dubious about Flood.
Are Sheridan and Ashton 100% fit, I hope they are as I think they are both quality.

Thompson hooker ahead of Hartley and Mears...WTF?
Thompson seems to blow hot and cold and never seems to deliver a good line out ball for me!
Cum on the wallabies
Can't see past the quick and exciting Wallabies.
Anyone watch it on RTE? What the feck was that at the end by Hook and Pope?
New Zealand weren't too impressive against Tonga.
Sonny Bill Williams did well.
He was class. That offload for the first try was fantastic.
I thought twas brilliant!
Another product of league coaching and background teaching the union lads what real skill is all about
His bread and butter that. The offload while being tackled.
seeing as ireland fecked up every single warm up game i am nervous despite the fact they are playing the USA
We'll beat them although it'll probably be scrappy. I think Italy will beat us to be honest.
It was one of the weirdest things I have ever seen.
i think our rugby world cup will be the same as last time, full of empty fecking promises
Romania put up some performance against Scotland.
Very close until the 75th minute.

What the feck is wrong with the numbers on the english shirts?

id me more worried about the glitter on them if i was them,
they are playing shite stuff aswell
That's as bad as I've seen England for 18 months, terrible. England lucky Argentina have had injures to there backs and missed so many kicks.
That first half was shit, hope they do better in the second.
the argies have been rubbish off the boot tonight,
wilkinson isnt much better either.
wilkinson isnt much better either.
Good job or they'd be a couple of scores ahead.
Can't remember the last time England were this much of a shambles. They've been a bit shit for a while but usually they're much tougher mentally than this.
They've gone to pieces
They've gone to pieces
Shite from England so far
Really shite
Really shite
Meh, its the world cup. England made it to the final last time by being a bit shit all the way through
We've no ideas and Wilkinson has some problems with the roof.............Come on England!!!!!!!!!!
0-36 against South Africa
They made to the final last time by convincing themselves they weren't shit. Looks like this time they're shit and they know it.
Try!
feck off Wales. I'm English all the way baby
feck off Wales. I'm English all the way baby
Try Try Try Try Try Try Try Try Try Try.............yeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
13-9 England..........well done boys
So Ashley Young was England's hero on Tuesday and Ben Young is England's hero today............well done Young's
So Ashley Young was England's hero on Tuesday and Ben Young is England's hero today............well done Young's
Well done me arse they were lucky to win that match, alot of mistakes to rectify
but a Win is a win
but a Win is a win
Argies are a tough bunch of feckers every time. Same old really. Though it didn't look like England were going to pull it off at all for a while. They wre just letting Wilkinson kick for goal in the hope he'd somehow piece together his game. Desperate stuff.
anyway, i'm proud of my pumas, maybe next world cup, after playing four four nations we will put a better fight
congrats to england and all their fans
