Would be amazing to win both the rugby and cricket world cups in the same year.

Love the ref bossing the NZ Ireland game. Clear concise instructions and no nonsense from the players.

NZ looking a bit too incredible for my liking, Tom - speaking as an England supporter.

Spent some time over their a few years ago and was interesting to see the relationship the Kiwis have with rugby. It sort of forms part of their national identity. Fair play go them. It’s either rugby or sheep.

Absolutely brilliant performance by England today, we can have a lot of confidence going into the semi-final. Loads of positive out of the performance to consider, but I might be clutching at straws for hope to see how we could beat NZ. NZ were gifted a start against Ireland. Sloppy play for the first 2 tries (the final pass for the second looked forward), a lucky break for the third and it was game over. Ireland have been of a rapid decline this year, but their back held there own. England's pack are much stronger so I cant wait to see that battle. Thought Reid should have had a yellow in then first half, as always, loads of decisions went NZ's way. 22 point win, but the 17 were a gift. It's going to be a great game next week.
