Theres no shame in being beaten by the worlds best, but do you have to do it to us so often?

By the way, we are thinking of giving Quade back to you, free of charge.

Just joking, he'll come good, and give the "frogs" heaps next weekend, make sure you beat them by 20+ points.

If France don't bring their A+ game next week, they'll get hammered. And for France, that's a big step as to be frank they've got this far without playing that well. Advantaged by Wales being down to 14 (rightly, imo) and England totally forgot how to play and themselves couldn't step up from a poor play in the group stage

My money is on NZ - so that's a shoe in for France to sneak it. At least we know France have the ability to step it up (my lot yet to prove it...)

Problem for NZ is, despite being the team to beat for the past 24 years, they need to win the pot away from NZ!

I forgot to ask our Kiwi Friend did he catch the finale score in yesterday's Rugby League test between us and NZ.

In case you missed it, Australian 42 -- New Zealand 6

I was at Uni in Hull. In the 80s: I know full-well what League is.

I'm just a southern softie who prefers union. League is a tougher game though.
