So that's it then, thank you. Everyone's agreed a New Zealand vs England final. Jonny W is worth an extra 6 points in any game.

Scotland has the best anthem, has a 100% record at this stage, can't we just leave it there?

Everyone's not agreed, what about a France v SA final. Here we go again with English arrogance, assuming they are going to win it. Every world cup, apart from the first one, has been won by a non-favourite team. Just look back to RWC1999, NZ were runaway favourites to hammer France & look what happened there.

Yes exposure to other languages and cultures is great. Go to a language and culture forum for that.

The forum was for welsh fans, welsh people have the same right to speak their language as you do with the English language.

BBC = British Broadcasting corporation
Official languages of Britain = English, Welsh Scottish and Irish.

You'll notice if you go to Wales a lot of signs have Welsh first then English. My British driving licence is written in Welsh first, English is second on my licence.
Welsh people can speak welsh in Britain if they want to and do not need to be pushed out to a language site. There are anti racism laws covering this in Britain.

Welsh is one of the official languages within Britain.
Some people speak welsh as a first language, my father is one, my grandparents are another. My grandparents had to learn English. They speak, think and dream in Welsh.

Welsh has as much right to be spoken as the English language in Britain (if not more.. it was there in Britain long before the English language appeared). The BBC .. Ie The BRITISH Broadcasting Corporation backed down because they knew it could be taken to an equal rights/ anti racism board.

Laws are there to protect from ignorance and racism.
Welsh has the same right (lawfully) to be spoken as the English language. It is an official language.
Cheers

P.s final. France v All Blacks. Out of all the teams so far I'll still put my money on the All Blacks to win. The rest don't look like anything special yet

You're assuming that Australia will beat Ireland in their pool... I'm not so sure. Ireland if they play well are a match for Australia.

quarters it could be a Scottish Irish match. I wouldn't like to bet on that pool.
