France vs Ireland - This is a big one - if France lose they are out which will be a disaster for French rugby and humiliating performance in a home WC. Ireland have so far been dreadful but a loss will put their chances of qualification in severe jeopardy. Hopefully it will be a battle royal. France with the most to lose to shade it by 7.
England vs Samoa - Can England get any worse? Saturday will tell. I suspect greater muscle, nous and the return of Johnny will see them scrape it by 12. Odds of JW finishing fit 50/50.
South Africa vs Tonga - Hopefully this will turn into a handbags fest, a clash of big super charged forwards. Of course the Boks will have way too much. Expect a win by 40.
Argentina vs Namibia - Argentina to play largely their second string and have way too much for poor Namibia. Pumas by 60.
Australia vs Fiji - With two wins out of two Fiji are still very much in this World Cup and they will put up a valiant effort. Expect them tho hold Austraia for 10 minutes before class tells. Australia by a ruthless 50.
NZ vs Scotland - Brave Scotland have had a good WC so far but here they will meet the wall. A rampant All Black machine coming close to their best will win by 50.
It's going to be a great weekend of rugby. Watch it at Tuskers, Chiang Mai's best sports bar.
