    Hardly, the British managed to keep you at bay well enough. And considering they were alone at the time that is quite impressive.

    as for me there are no options to choose from as I'm Welsh, not English, British or European.

    Re: Nationality?

    Half the team were injured and all the players that replaced them were rookies.
    As for the fiasco of our coach no-body really knows what the truth is, but supposedly it was a mix of the players and WRU interfering. Shame too as he was a good coach.

    In all fairness though, France deserved the win, although I'm not sure Ireland deserved second, Scotland deserved to be second.

    However all of this makes the 6 Nations much more interesting as it is no longer easy to predict positions and with the world cup next year it will certainly be interesting.
    England will never retain the World Cup, nowhere near good enough.
    France, maybe but they are too inconsistent
    Australia, no chance. They have no good players at the moment
    NZ, the ones to beat
    SA, Dark horses maybe? Could do it on the day and the only team who will be able to beat NZ
    Wales, if they can play like last year they'll do well. Although keeoing that up for a tournament will be tough
    Ireland, doubt it. They play well but are too inconsistent.
    Scotland, should do well and may peak just at the time of the World Cup. The underdogs.

    NZ Vs SA would be an ideal final next year

    Why have you combined English and British into one option? They're two different things. Personally, I'm Scottish and British; I'm most certainly not English.

    Nobody knows how mayonaise is suposed to taste though, they all use 'Frites Saus'. I always make my own mayo.

    Bitterballen met mayonnaise. Nowhere as good as in Holland. Nowhere else available either.

    I was dissapointed Holland didnt qualify, it just not a World Cup without the sea of Orange. I would much rather watch Holland play than an Asian team who arn't as good but qualify because they come from a continent where the standard of football is much lower.

    I worked with a bunch of Philipinos a few years ago far far away from the homestead. Suprisingly - however well they could withstand spicey foods, trying (our) mustard for the first time absolutely killed them. It was gold.

    Of course I meant last time.

    Anyway England missed out on USA 94 qualification, and I think France didnt qualify for the world cup before they peaked so it means nothing, sometimes this happens when a team is being rebuilt.

    During the last WC I payed close attention to South-Korea which was coached by Guus Hiddink, he comes from the same place as me.
    It was a very exciting team to watch. Who would have imagined they would get so far?
