Rugby world cup who is going to win

[basher]

im an elglish man so i do want england t win but i know we dont stand a chance. i think new zealand deserve to win as they are always world number 1 yet have never won the world cup cant w8 to see them. GOT MY TICKET!!!!!!

[Stubert]

ireland, france or new zealand

[Mattathyah]

im irish so ireland 4 ever even though i dont watch rugby that much

i'd like to see australia win (yes, you guessed it... im an aussie)
but i know there are better teams out there.

maybe new zealand. they seem alright, and quite honestly between them and the springboks, id prefer NZ to win.

(i have a little bit of a grudge... the last match i saw was aus vs. springboks, there was clearly a forward pass off a springbok, and because of the umpire miscalling it, we lost. ah well... maybe it should be that umpire that i bear the grudge towards.. ah well.)

pfft excuses :p. SA were all over australia . id love to see a playoff between between winners of 6 nations and winners of tri nations. pretty much world cup finals . dont think england have a chance though. a team of OAPs. and o' driscoll is injured

I agree with what stubert said concerning who could win. Those three countries are those most likely to win, maybe Australia has its chances too.

[Stubert]

hmm, not too sure about australia. new zealand naturally > australia.

nah, tbh they have a really decent team. id say ireland, france, new zealand in semis. then whoever play the best on the day wins. problem with ireland is they dont have too much depth

Like Soulless I'd like to see the Aussies (I'm a born and bred Aussie) win it and I think they're definitely in with a chance. Other than Aus, I'd place my bets on NZ. But It's always a hard one to pick.

o'driscall will be back to captain ireland come the important matches. I tink we hav as much chance as any1 but we will only finish 2nd in our group as france are the host nation and will be strong. If we do manage to finish first we will be in at least the final against new zealand or france.

There is a popular website in NZ where you make 'picks' of who will win what match and by what margin etc. Theres a ranking system and prizes.

nz beta win lol cause we are the best but i think it is funny frasnce lost to argentina this morning

[Sex Panther]

I'm fairly sure Japan just got killed by Australia the other day (not bragging too much).

GO AUSTRALIA!!!

[J.S.]

Eire all the way

[Londo Mollari]

i'm supporting england, but after seeing them against USA they don't have a chance

NZ are overrated imo, they never seem to deliver in the world cup, even though they are highly regarded and one of the best teams in the world
