Rugby World Cup - England versus South Africa

After almost one week of competition, we can finally look forward to some evenly contested fixtures, at least on paper it certainly appears to be so -- England versus South Africa (Springboks). Wow! Surely can't give this match a miss, no?

One is the defending champion in England, the other one is the traditional rugby powerhouse in Springboks. I watched England played USA days before. Their performance were not impressed at all. Although i missed the Springboks opening game, i still reckon both teams had reserved their energy and strength for this match.

So far, New Zealand All Blacks and Australia Wallabies had undoubtedly come out of the blocks pretty strongly with their all-conquering and all-round displays in their respective opening games. Personally, i would like to see New Zealand All Blacks winning this year Rugby World Cup.
