SIR CLIVE WOODWARD: Here comes THE NORTHERN POWERHOUSE in the quarters

SIR CLIVE WOODWARD: For the first time in World Cup history, northern hemisphere teams topped all the pools, setting up four intriguing quarter-finals.

I’m glad Clive has lost none of his ability to be an arrogant cock even all these years later.

I wonder what he'll say if NZ, Argentina and SA all progress....

I can’t stand all that “hemisphere” shit. I don’t see any relevance to it and I hate how Poms will get on bandwagons about it.

Good god, I agree with @MN5

I’m surprised too. Often you’re cantankerous and disagreeable.

I feel like that team looks a lot weaker without Matera.

[Bones]

Man, feel for Matera, poor fella. Looks a bloody good team with a strong bench though. Should be a cracker.

Feels like Wales go in as favourites but Argentina showed a bit in the Japan game. I’m torn between wanting 4 NH teams in the semis and wanting Wales to be beaten out of sight. It’s not really a difficult choice when I think about it

Has it really taken you 20 years to come up with a headline to make that joke?

Those 'portraits' of the team are the Walsh equivalent of the ABs snail trail. Look like they've been done by a kid.

Wales have this, tight but never in doubt IMO

[Bovidae]

Is Bertranou injured too? He started against Japan while Cubelli wasn't in the 23.

Drunk you say? I find that very difficult to believe.

I think the hardest match to pick. Both have the ability to play out of their skins and with pace, but both have shown in recent couple of years how to implode within the 80 minutes. Heart says Wales, but I think Argentina will win by 3 points

Hardest match to pick ? Not more than SA vs France or NZ vs Ireland.

Did you write that before you read the NZ selections?!

[Damo]

I really want Argentina to win but I just can't see it.

I will be up at 4 for sure.
