Eng or SA?
« on: October 16, 2007, 20:35:30 PM »
Nothing to do with poker, just curious what you guys all think.......

So who do you think will win on Saturday?

Personally as much I would love England to win the Webb Ellis Trophy again I think SA may just prove to be strong.

I hope I"m proved wrong just as I was against the Aussies & the French............. 8)
37% of Americans agree that while they would hate being British, they wouldn't mind having a British accent.

I"m going to stay proud and back the lads!!
Think if we can bring Jonny"s kicking in to the game enough and make sure we shut out Habana were going to sneak the victory.

COME ON ENGALND!!!

I have to say it will be SA. I just hope its not a white wash.....

The only way they can lose is if it is the worst ever loss for us. We did not expect to get there, and we have done very well to get there. We beat the aussies and the the French, so it has been a good tourney.

It would be superb if we won. I would me over the moon and would have a few dinrks to celebrate. Tut, who am I kidding I will be having a few anyway...

We"ve certainly got a chance and it won"t be anything like 36-0. We"ve got no pressure on us - we"re free-rolling - they"ve seen us turn over two big, big favourites and they"re expected to win. If we can keep the same intensity and passion and secure a bit of decent ball, we"ve got a decent chance.

GET IN!!!!

If we try and play poncey throw-the-ball-around-lets-try-and-express-ourselves rugby we"ll get murdered. If we make the game as ugly as possible (and if there"s an uglier specimen on the planet than George Cruter then I"m Doyle Brunson) and allow  the forwards to out muscle the Sprinboks then we will win

My heart says England - their never say die attitude has been something to be proud of.

My head says that poor Johnny will be the target of on and off the ball hammering, and he won"t be allowed to provide the edge he gave us in the quarters and semis.

I do not envy the referee.
It's only a Game

I could list my APAT achievements here, but I am too modest,and there isn't enough space

COME ON ENGLAND!!!

Nobody gave us a chance against the aussies or the french, so bring on the boks!!!

Will be very close, a hard game up front with a tactical kicking game in behind.  Not many tries (if any) and I think we may be going to extra time again (get on 25/1 with hills)...

Get the beers in and prepare for a nail biting evening...
