Of Course they'll win it......... I have advised all my work colleagues to empty their bank accounts and bet it all on Scotland...........

This is a sure bet....... Just like the Nothern Rock shares?????

(Well Tayport Juniors did win the Scottish OVD Cup???) not that anyone will know who they are!!

You just never know!!!!

Oh dear, only wanted Scotland to beat the All Blacks in the pool game to gloat over the rest of household.

Think they are all going into mourning this morning!!

Got to admit-was gutted AB's lost-but who'd have predicted Eng Fra semi?

Good luck to the Bravehearts!

Didn't expect Scotland to win but SO wished for it. Might have consoled OH slightly (him being a Kiwi ).

Actually don't think there is any consoling him!

Seriously, people are behaving as if there has been a death in the family. So yeah, take it easy on your husband. He'll need to work through the grieving process.

OH and I were in Brisbane 8 yrs ago when the ABs lost to France in the World Cup final. The news reports at the time were showing the nations flags flying at half mast!!

Don't want to be pedantic but the ABs lost to France (again!!) in the semis 8 years ago and Oz beat France in the final. What was it like in Brissy when the Ozzies won?

OMG - that was only the semi's!! blinking heck!

Can't remember it being any different when Oz won - was backpacking and spent the whole time partying all the time anyway
