Question

Who in here thinks England can win the Rugby World Cup?

Answer 1

good question...as the reigning premiers you can never rule them out. IF they have SIR Wilkinson, that's an advantage it was definitely his golden boot that got them over the line. However the player in hot form is Daniel Carter, flyhalf for NZ ALL BLACKS, he's smooth in both legs, accurate in kicking and passing, and his skill surpasses or AT LEAST is on par with Wilkinson no doubt. NZ ALWAYS have more than a fighting chance but tend to peak too early and then come crashing down in the semi finals whereas teams like AUS and ENGLAND steadily grow stronger towards late in the tournament and then peak perfectly in the finals.

They have a chance...but it's slim

Answer 2

me for one anyway. they just need to get the [players in the right mind set. ye all know we have the pack to do it. and with wilko and his 2 young apprentices we have a great chance

Answer 3

Not a hope in h**l. They have trouble winning at home in the 6 nations after they have their opposition scouting report done.  Look out for NZ, Aus, Sth Africa, Ireland and France. Eng right now are in the next tier with Argentina, Wales and Samoa if they get all their players released from the European clubs.

Answer 4

There is no chance. Ashton is definitely the man for the job after the Robinson debacle but it is too soon. The world rankings after the 6 nations had England as second only to New Zealand. Now even the most ardent  fan would have to admit that is tosh (Oz, France, Ireland..maybe Wales). They have regained some of their success at home, but still remain woeful away.

Answer 5

To be quite frank, IF there is someone that believes England can win, they should propably pay a visit to the doctor, and by doctor I mean psychiatrist....

Answer 6

Nobody here thinks England can win!

Answer 7

not me

Answer 8

they might win it if they get lucky, all they're young new players look great but i personally dont think they will win, they will get far into the tournament though.

Answer 9

i don't think they can. but "nothing is impossible" aye?! personally i don't want them to win:) haha.:)

Answer 10

Sorry but,  Not A Chance!

England are 7 in the world rankings at the mo. really its between the top 5 -( New Zealand,  France,  Australia,  Ireland,  South Africa. ).

But I think they'll beet South Africa(Not very good this year) and Argentina, and they could end up 3 or 4.
