Now the semi finals are settled and we have seen all four teams in serious action, who is everyone going to be betting on?
I'm wanting to know what your head says, not what your heart says.
The Springboks are looking more vulnerable.
The English are improving with every game.
The French are completely enigmatic.
The Pumas are the wild card and may cause another upset yet.
Ideas?
My vote goes marginally to the French team that turned up on Saturday, not the other French team. :shame:

I'm going to go with France on this, however much I'd like England to win.

England. I only hope they don't knight the entire team.
Tough call, but I think South Africa will make it to the finals. Anything can happen though.

It can go any way. France always loses to England in the World Cup, which is not very promising. The English are to France what France is to Ireland and NZ in recent times.
The Boks are nowhere near invincible. We could see another shock result yet. I wouldn't be surprised to see a Pommies vs Pumas final...(Rosbif vs Steak?)
But I must vote for France. Now is the time. Home soil, NZ and Oz out. And this team has great determination and has shown it can win at crucial moments.

I'll go with my guys. Of course it's only wishful thinking but I wasn't this exited about an sport event since the first ring on the hands of Manu.
Wheter they do it or not against Southafrica next Sunday I think this is our best team so far and they've showed their guts on the field. I congratulate them for that and will certainly not feel ashamed if they lose.

Argentina have everything to be proud of, win or lose. I'm just not sure I can see two more massive performances against the best.
Good luck though. :2thumbsup:

don't be so defeatist, this cup is full of surprise and the last one could France - argentina for the final. But first we must :stop: England and it's far from done!
Allez les bleus :balloon2: :balloon2:
In anycase I hope we (England, don't be fooled by my location) actually score a try.
It will be worst to loose the english match that it would have been if we had loose the NZ match.
France/England will be the most interessant match, i'm sure of it.

Damn it's getting close! Did the England team manage to see and inspect all the match balls this time? The problem with these balls is well off I reckon. I will be biting by knee caps and bursting my eyeballs!

Eng-er-laaand! Eng-er-laaand!
I reckon we have a chance. I do hope we win, as rugby is gradually starting to distract people from the tedious rubbish that is football.

It'll be England/France, but I suppose I should place my vote before the end of the game heh.
EDIT: I voted for France. And I'm expecting a France - South Africa final.

I'm hoping we get another dammit from you when the Pumas beat the Boks while losing five first team players in the proccess.
