Yeh, well done indeed, especially after losing in last year's tournament by over 90 points (from memory)

1st time the AB's have lost a game in this competition!!  Shame about the pitch, perhaps that was the reason for Ireland's loss against England ?

I could not believe my eyes when I looked at the rugby and see the totally unimaginable happen, namely -

   *     The Argentinians beating the Aussies

  *     The Welsh beating the All Blacks

  *      SA beating the Italians - really surprising after they buggered up Mondays game.

Well done the winners.   However, it means for SA to get into an acceptable log position they will have to win after scoring four tries.     They will also have to beat England by more than 7 points.     If that happens the log position will be as follows:-

SA       -         11 points

England        10 points

Ireland             9 points

Italy                  no points

Only way SA can get to the top of tyhe log.

Gotta admire the enthusiasm, the pride and passion the Welsh bring to the game of rugby. The Aussies playing the Welsh tonight should be worried as Wales will definitely be buoyed by their juniours historic win over the kiwis. No excuses for losing in the mud which cancelled the running rugby the kiwis are famous for as you have to adapt to the conditions no matter what.

Wet and muddy playing conditions are a great leveller in rugby performance.    I think Australia is in real trouble if they lose another game - they are ruling themselves effectively out of the competition.   new Zealand and the Welsh next games are easy and they could easily get number 1 and 2 position on the log in their group.   Welsh probably on top.

In the case of SA we have to win agauins the POMS by at least 12 points or by scoring for tries as indicated earlier by me -  alesser performance would rule out SA as well.
