It's highly likely there will be an England match on during cottage weekend, which should be fun.

Both QF games England can get into are at 08:15!

Well done if you can get up for those times!

I'd suggest the trick is to not go to bed and power through.

There was 15 minutes of quiet, the rest I was able to sort of half see as kids ruin everything.

The game was good. A lot to build on.

Nice to beat the yanks at anything. There was some pre-game chatter that they were confident of an upset. Ha!

I think the red card upset them, and having a prop broken within 3 mins

England Vs France called off due to incoming Typhoon. Game declared 0-0 draw. England top group and likely to play Australia in the quarter final.

If we can get Grim... to role play as the Kiwi flattening him then I definitely approve of this idea.

I had a dream that England lost to Romania in the semi-finals, in extra time.

Probably safe to assume that wasn’t a prophecy.
