ITV are taking the pith
"Invictus" on tonight

Yep, BBC have had questionable coverage of sporting events before but it's never been this bad.

On behalf of all 4.3 million New Zealanders I would like to take this opportunity to apologise for our rugby captain.

Richie McCaw is a fantastic player who has always played close to the edge, I was appalled that he was booed by a crowd that showed a total disrespect for a man who leads by example and puts his body on the line for his country, his only fault is that he's not Welsh.

Well done Wales! Sorry, English folks. Your team played well, for sure.

(I admit I'm underwhelmed with the two All Black performances so far and we need to lift our game).

Yeeesssss

I made a fatal mistake tonight!
Made complimentary noise at Wales's Try
Well at least the collies will share their beds with me

Didn't see that coming, thought England would win after all the injuries , pride and passion won that game.

Its a good job they made lots of mistakes.

So Phil, I'd like England and Wales to go through so want England to win tonight but maybe a few non life threatening injuries to the Aussies so we have an easier game next week
Be good to send one of the favourites home!

It's a difficult one, if Australia win we go through but i think England have a good chance as long as they make the right decisions, they should have beaten us last week and should have taken the 3 points at the end to get the draw, so good luck to them tonight and may the best team win

Rereading your post i see your Welsh drahawkins...1973 , whoever gets through it's going to be tough for us with all the injuries and our scrum is weak.
