The Tongans did themselves proud! Great support for them inside and outside the stadium. Lots of singing and dancing and chanting Tonga, Tonga. You can tell all the Tongan houses and cars, they are covered in red and white flags!!
It must be brilliant being in NZ for this NZChristine, looks a fabulous atmosphere
I have just survived France v. Japan
It was so close mid way through the 2nd half, Japan were unlucky not to win. The scoreline flattered France in the end, they took advantage of Japan tiring in the last 5 mins. God knows what ML is going to do with the team now!
Well, that game was only 2 dimensional because each team brought one dimension to the pitch.
England are inspiring another generation of unimaginative big kids to get to the gym. I suppose that's a positive.
But Kerist this ITV commentary is sh1t! France v Japan the bloke didn't know that if the ball goes back from the hand then bounces forward it's not knocked forward! Then there was the question over Argentinian fitness v Wales which proved the bloke didn't see the game (they were already beaten after 50 minutes, it didn't take 70 and still stay close). Get some of the games over to BBC and let's have Eddie Butler and Brian Moore going head to head!
Just watched the England match. Thanks - that's 80 odd minutes of my life I'm not getting back.
I know I find Brian Moore an opinionated sod who occasionally sounds like a stuck record, but at least he tends to have something interesting to say. It would have livened things up a bit. Which it desparately needed. I do hope it improves...

Can't beat fireworks - oooh!
We have 2 extra members of staff who suddenly want to work in our room as we have the TV
Two for the price of one!
Go Tonga
Poor Tonga.
Cake, Ireland v US, I'd go US.
Tonga v Canada, I'd go Canada.
Scotland v Georgia I'll take Scotland to romp it.
Scotland v Romania tomorrow, however, that could be a really close one.
And Wales v SA. Has to be Wales. No debate there.
YAY!
Took around 10 minutes but they got there in the end!
Can't believe we all haven't got our score predictions down! I picked 41-10 for that one.
Honestly.
Think the Kiwis were playing within themselves. Just warming up.
Just drawn Namibia in the sweepstake.
Fortunately, there a small prize of a returned stake for the wooden spoon, so I'm in with a chance there!
Great to be there, glad they got a try.

Oh and stop playing in white FFS!
Bloody hell, it's 9-3 to Argentina!
And why are England playing in black?
The world's gone mad...
I think you're safe now
Though if Argentina had kicked their kicks...
Bloody hell!
And I'm still recovering from Sale winning 30-29 last night
don't think I can stick 6 weeks of this!
