Kick-off at 0900.

Can we overcome the All Blacks?

Here's hoping.

Every player has to be at 100% and even then it'll be difficult.

Well they have changed formation / line up for the first time in this RWC so they must think we are the strongest team they have played so far.

I believe I heard their coach suggest that this was the final and the winners get a bonus match in the next game

Yes England can win. I’m having a bet on a decent 12 point gap win. Mad probably.

When they can’t produce quick ball the All Blacks will try to disrupt our line out ..hence he change.

Based on terrible 70's facial hair and 80's hair cuts, NZ will win hands down.

I've got a feeling England could build a lead but see it disappear in a heartbreaking late New Zealand comeback. My big concern is the quality of our bench.

The team of 2003 had beaten everyone in the world in the build up to their WC victory - this team haven't done that.

If that happens, as long as the lead England have is at least 15 then I will be happy!

Great start!
