By the same token, how the hell were NZ losing to Wales after more than 50 minutes?

Past games mean nothing now.

The semi-final that doesn't involve England is

New Zealand vs Australia

I think this is what our Southern Hemisphere friends are referring to.

Given that the Poll is "Who will win the Semi Final between Australia and New Zealand", I think it's probably justified that England aren't in it...

Hmm, good point... although Anna said that neither of those teams would win, so I thought you people meant the final...

And "the big game" in this world cup is the final IMHO

Australia, because we have been and always will be, better then England at everything. (Yes i know its between us and NZ, but England are better than NZ at general sport, so that explains itself)

Note: There is 1 curling rink in England.

Curling is a predominantly Scottish sport :P

And Australia, because they're going to win the World Cup. I decided that halfway through the farce that was Leicester v Blackburn last week.

Australia looked completely ordinary in the quarters. A decent side (i.e. any quarter finalist except Scotland) would have beaten them.

New Zealand to beat France in the final.

Marc & how do you explain Wales 10-3 up to England at halftime and then by fulltime Wales 3 tries to 1 over England?

NZ were bad against Wales, but they made scoring tries look easy in the last 10 minutes to show that they were clearly the better side.
