    Celebrations are less united than say the Barcelona Celebrations are in that we didn't gather in mass on the main streets. People are having their own mini parties such as Big Barbecues which is what I was at this morning. I'm with JamDav1982 on this one. It is a minority sport really. I mean...

    Rugby

    In the dry conditions I feel it would make sense for Australia to make the metres down field with the ball in hand rather than doing 'up and unders' or kicking it down field for the sake of it. I would advise Australia to spread the ball to either side of the field, Commit Savea and NMS to come...

    I can't agree with you here. I'm with Flavia on this one.

    I think you will see a couple of set piece moves from both teams that have been unseen in the tournament (or ever before). Tactics that they have been saving for this game.

    Sergi Samper

    This sounds risky but Samper needs game time with the first team. Yes there will be harsh personal lessons learned which may make him feel bad but we are seeing potential in Samper. The guy is only 20.

    Unless this is too off-topic. . . I disagree with that. We would have beaten Chelsea 7 or 8 times out of 10 in that Champions League tie and would have been equal or better than Bayern in the final.

    The Australian Rugby Union placed a $300,000 bet for a $3 million return on the Wallabies to win the World Cup.

    They're scared! :rofl1: Refusing to to say the word 'All Blacks'. :whatever: Trying to hide their nervousness about facing the mighty All Blacks. Grow a pair :lol: http://www.3news.co.nz/sport/mind-games-begin-as-wallabies-refuse-to-say-all-blacks-2015102818?ref=video#axzz3pqFLp6jm

    If Australia win. They will have the mantra of 'We beat you in the World Cup Final in the one sport that you guys are better than us at'. It will last until we beat them in the World Cup final or win more World Cups than them. Even if we beat them in 80% of matches against them over the next decade.

    No, I'm not confident. If the ground is wet that will take the teeth out of our backline (except Ma'a Nonu's of whom it will improve). David Pocock and Michael Hooper give Australia an edge in the fowards battle. Our scrum is wayward. If the ground is wet I would give it 50/50. If the ground is...

    Without being up myself it won't make a difference. Kieran Read will captain the forwards. Carter, Ben Smith and Conrad Smith will lead the backs. Sam Cane is adequte to take on Michael hooper in the loose foward battle. The super rugby proved all of this.
