    I felt sorry for Wales today. The SA forwards were awesome and made the difference in the end.

    I'm not normally a fan of RU, but that game was enthralling.

    That must have been fun. It was tense enough in my living room watching on the laptop!

    I think England are safe favourites. But I'm worried they'll be a bit "after the lord mayor's show" and not turn up. SA looked good but not fantastic. But as I said, I'm not really a fan and am basing this on having watched about five games in the last ten years.

    My money is on England so long as they don't self implode as they have many times before. They have all the firepower to match the boks and individual skills beyond theirs (on current showing).

    But as a Welsh supporter I may need a couple of early beers before I start muttering "Come on England".

    Well my prediction (see above) showed what I know about RU. South Africa absolutely dominated - as against Wales their forwards were awesome.

    It was interesting listening to the commentary at half time "England need to make some changes to sort out the scrums" - I thought at the time "how?".

    I've called several of these games wrong, so I know beggar all, but I certainly didn't see England being dominated like that.
    There weren't tries flying in all over the place but I found it an enthralling game to watch.

    6 nations soon, I wonder how the teams will get themselves back up for that?
