Cheers Oche, like you I’m not too fussed about rugby but will watch some of the World Cup. Doesn’t seem like there’s much confidence for England this time round

The big gaps in the schedule towards the end tend to make me forget it's even happening when it's happening. Basically no interest anyway but I do like a World Cup.

England lost 22-30 at home to Fiji. That doesn't sound too promising.

Not many people are watching this then

Australia lost to Fiji in the only shock so far. They need to beat Wales for a chance to qualify for the QF
