NZ win the rights to host the 2011 Rugby World Cup. For the game I would have liked to see Japan get the rights as it would have done wonders for the Asian game. But this is likely to kill off any hope Rugby had of getting more global.

Hmmm, I don't know to be honest. There has only been 5 world cup's so looking at it that way, Rugby Union is only young and there will be alot more world cup's in the future.

Looking forward to this weekend's action, I can see a possible clean sweep by the southern hemisphere over England, Wales and Ireland. Alright Australia aren't playing well, but I think they showed some signs of promise against England, except in the pack ofcourse...

Well Aus have finally fixed their pack up, so heres hoping they finally win one. ABs have it in the bag, SA only team to beat the ABs should take care of Wales. So its all up to Aus. Although you can also add Argentina to that list as they play Italy.

All up to the Aussies who have disappointed the Southern Hemisphere thus far. :(

There is a proper Rugby match tonight! Steve-o will be his usual self, backing the Great Britain boys. He is by far the greatest Rugby commentator!

Rugby League > Rugby Union

I would have to say that Percy had his radar out today, and that Bosman did well in his only kick lol. Habana also played a big role in this match once again. If I recall correctly all of our tries were scored by the wingers.

If anyone knows who are our next opposistion?

I should've put money on it! :(

The England v New Zealand game was a cracker. Having got so close and having been so close at the end against 14 men, i'm slightly disappointed we didn't win.

France, November 26 - Saturday

I must say the English played a lot better than I thought they would. I thought the ABs would run away with the game. The English look to be on the way backup.
