As a passionate Welsh rugby fan I’m happy to focus on our group, but would encourage dialogue from all interested parties.
The loss of Halfpenny and Webb are a distraction at best and just fuel for sports journalists and speculators alike. Liam Williams is considered by many a 1st choice and although Webb is world class, scrum half is a pivotal role that operates within a structure and we have two players more than capable of delivering to the standard expected. If any Welsh player is affected by not having the ‘injured two’ on the pitch with them then they lack the mental strength required and shouldn’t be picked.
I think that England’s performance against the Fijians could underpin their success. I believe that they’ll survive an attritional and abrasive first quarter and then go on to win handsomely. Progress from the group and they’ll reach the finals. Wales are still too unpredictable because I’m not convinced that last two decades of significant success has yet to translate into a core belief. You get the sense that when SA / NZ walk onto the pitch that they seeing winning as in their hands only. Wales, with fast front foot ball, will dismiss England with some aplomb…alas England may not privilege Wales with that gift!
Australia are a bloody nuisance as they are tried and tested big game performers. Please tell me it’s a joke and Wales, England and Ireland are in the same group..FFS!
I’m going to the NZ v Argentina and Wales v Australia games…can’t wait!
