The little brother is off to see the match, putting on his best Welsh burr hopefully or he'll get nothing but stick for the result on the 2nd.

Voted no out of spite :sneaky:

Congratulations to Wales from the Antrim4 house.

50% of the house is delirious and talking about new shirts etc., 25% is happy that England beat Ireland and can't understand why they didn't play like that all tournament, and the other 25% is sore at Ireland losing!

As Mrs Antrim4 said as they won yesterday, 'I could do with a pint of Brains'.

I just finished watching England Vs Ireland game on Setanta at last an England performance worth watching it only took the whole tournament for them to get their act together. Time for the youngsters to come through with their pace and quick reactions.

Sorry I know this is a Wales celebration :D but I had to tell someone :D

Just did the same Dave and have to agree, about time.

Thanks Dave. It was also good to see England come through in the end. I certainly think that the first game of the tournament was crucial for both teams. It shows in the final standings how important that first game was to Wales.

Have to agree with your last post too. England need to move on from their vets and allow the youngsters to come through aka Wales.

BTW Fredericton is still in our thoughts. We're finding it very tough to make that final decision though. Are the Welsh matches shown on TV out there live? Could sway it.:ohmy:

Yep every Wales game is live :) and you get free beer if you wear a Wales jersey :D and a free aroma therapy massage at half time to calm your frayed nerves down.:lol: Sounds like paradise eh? :rofl: (did you like my Canadian impression eh?) So when are you landing in Fredericton?

I am not sure, is the real answer. :p

I watched the Wales France Game on Saturday at 10:15pm so I am guessing around 6:25pm your time. English Rugby has that special deal going where no one can watch it live about from Sky (I think) on the same day skews England game broadcasts so they are always at least a day behind. Although I could have brought the life broadcast of all the RWG 2007games for $200 (from memory that could be flawed). I only paid $35 to watch the final live.
