Irish Eyes are smiling







Ireland 15 Australia 6: Wow - what a game. No tries but the Irish scrum was incredible. Probably the only game they have in them but we shall see.

It upsets the draw as it looks as if the Pools now split into Northern/
Southern. It depends on some further results but if we can get through it may be NZ - England. But a couple of problems lay in wait - the Boks who demolished Fiji - not so much the scoreline but the dynamic open play - and Australia. Also lying in wait of course is our usual bĂȘte noire - France.

Boks - Fiji

Smith scores against Japan.The USA - Russia game

Angela and I will be at the USA - Australia game on Friday. I have printed up some stuff to wear supporting the USA and will also wear my T Shirt that says I support NZ and any team playing Australia. It will be fun.

Awful joke: The Chinese comedian Raybon Kan told an awful joke and has been abused - but as he says he is a comedian and it is his job to upset people.
