C'mon England!!
 

The Rugby World Cup 2015 kicks off tomorrow, as host nation let's hope we can reproduce our 2003 win!! :luxhello::luxhello:
:luxhello:

Swing low... :luxhello:

Wales second, though. :Suspiciou

I'm rooting for Australia :thumb:

You turncoat Chris lol

Come on England!!!!

Was a good win for England in the opening game, but the team were sloppy in mid game. Redeemed themselves in the end, well done England!! :luxhello: Credit to Fiji, they played well giving our boys a good run!

Missed it 'cos we're packing, but pleased with the result! :thumb:

Yes a great result. You're packing? Just leave it to the missus cos, believe me if anything is missing when you arrive it WILL be your fault. I haven't packed for the last ten/twelve years. Where are you bound JT?

Off to Cyprus, fella, thanks for asking. Only a week...last minute effort. :)

Lol, I get lumbered with the packing too, my Mrs is useless at it, which is a bit strange considering she spent half her working life as a tour guide traveling the world. :Suspiciou

I remember when England won the Rugby world cup, I was really happy and I'm not even into Rugby, it does give that feel good factor when the nation does well.

But was it really that long ago, how time flies.

I'll be there at the final with my lad and a bunch of mates :D

Doh, just seen the other thread. Enjoy!!

That seems like yesterday , I guess I'm not a true follower but it slightly amazes me how suddenly johnny Wilkinson seemed to disappear. ( after essentially winning us everything )

He didn't exactly disappear. He came back from several injuries in the years after 2003, to score all 12 points in the quarter, 9 of 14 points in the semi, and all 6 points in the 2007 final :thumb:

He was still in the squad for the 2011 world cup and remains our highest points scorer, by some margin :notworthy

Japan are giving the Springboks a good run for their money, great game so far! :luxhello: Rooting for the underdogs, c'mon Japan!!

Wilkinson latterly played his club rugby in France only retired 12 months ago, as he played abroad he wasn't selected for England national team.

He won everything at club level including European Championship (twice l think) he pretty much ran the show and unusually was hero worshiped by the French.

Can't believe what Japan are doing, level 10 minutes to go - what a great game :)

:luxhello: Well done Japan!! Unbelievable, what an upset, fantastic effort great game, a well deserved victory over the two time world champions!

They play Scotland at Gloucester on Wednesday.
If they play like today could be another win,confidence will be high.

Only just tuned in , what an upset lol

Awesome :D

Well done Japan! :notworthy

Double awesome :D:D

I so enjoyed that:thumb:

GET IN!!! :luxhello::luxhello:

A good first half for England, some mistakes made by the other team.

Come on Wales

Oh bugger. Hard lines England:luxhello:

One day this England team (and it's the whole team, from the captain down) will learn that it's their p!ss poor discipline that is costing them the big games :rolleyes:

That went well . Wales reserves were awesome :luxhello:

Swing low my arse :lol1:

Well played Wales! :notworthy

Ha ha , all the build up and they ballsed it up in the last 15 mins

All power to Wales

They were too greedy. The should of gone for the draw
