Posted October 8, 20222 yr And so England open their Rugby World Cup campaign against Fiji in 10 minutes already with a world record 25 winning game streak behind them. Fair to say that they are expected to win this tournament and the bookies are not overstating matters rating them 1/2 to favourites to lift the trophy. They are form certainties, but will it be that simple? Short answer, probably not, though having just watched an unbelievably error-strewn performance from the ever frustrating French, surely only the Black Ferns stand in their way. Should be a cracking tournament and I've gone with England to cover the 53.5 point handicap. Come on the Red Roses!
October 8, 20222 yr Author Blimey! Maddest half of rugby I've ever seen results in an 84-19 win for the Red Roses. Didn't look likely in the first 40, but that second half was close to perfect rugby. Feel for the Fijiana, as they didn't deserve to be on the end of that kind of a mauling after really putting it up to England at times. Not sure an all-night triple header was the best idea, but I'm going to push on through and catch the Black Ferns vs Australia game next up. I'm going with the Kiwis to cover the 23 point handicap.

October 9, 20222 yr Author Pulling the night shift again. Going with Japan plus 35 points in the handicap betting. Quite looking forward to this one. Can the Japanese side upset huge favourites Canada?

I'll take the hit though, as Kiera Bevan just did me a square . I am borderline hallucinating from sleep deprivation though, but there's been some decent games already, with Wales - Scotland the pick and I've got this week off too ??

October 15, 20222 yr Tough old game this morning for the Roses. More errors than we're used to seeing and France did mightily well for saying that they lost their star player with an injury.
October 16, 20222 yr Just watched the last 20mins of S Africa Vs Fiji, SA score a pen in the last 2mins, A SA win on the cards to make it 17-14, Fiji Kick Off knock the ball, Get the ball and what, My favourite Fiji prop with mature English Oaktree thighs gets the ball and it's like watching someone bowling a 10 pin ball down the alley, She knocked everyone out of the way literally...off loads the ball, Fiji player brought down... Fiji get a pen take a short tap and score over the line with 1 minute to go, Score the conversion to make it 21-17 ?
October 30, 20222 yr England ran over the Willy Roos in the rain. NZ back line looks far superior to England so far. England NZ final on the cards. I'd make NZ slight favourites on current form.

November 12, 20222 yr Such a shame about the red card. The missing player ruthlessly exploited by NZ for at least 2 tries by my reckoning. Thought that the NZ yellow on abbie Dow looked as bad but millimetres of mitigation.
