England: Ben Foden, Chris Ashton, Manu Tuilagi, Mike Tindall (captain), Delon Armitage, Jonny Wilkinson, Richard Wigglesworth, Andrew Sheridan, Steve Thompson, Dan Cole, Louis Deacon, Courtney Lawes, Tom Croft, James Haskell, Nick Easter.
Replacements: Dylan Hartley, Matt Stevens, Tom Palmer, Tom Wood, Ben Youngs, Toby Flood, Matt Banahan.
^England team announced for Saturday against Argentina. Not bad overall I think.
Despite my fears that's not a bad team. Interesting to see that Armitage is playing as well as Foden so plenty of flair in the back line.
Not sure about Wigglesworth ahead of youngs.... is Johnson saying that he doesn't think Youngs will cope with the pressure or do you think he might bring him on later to inject some pace as the Argentinians tire?
Whatever, just so bloody excited that it's finally here!!
Reckon Youngs will start as soon as he has proved his fitness. Just watched an hours preview on itv4 though and you have to say that the only team that can beat NZ for the cup is.... NZ themselves ! (Watch this space

Here we go! 
Its only taken 4 years to come, but here it is at last! I'm desperate for us to keep up our record of always reaching the quarter finals, I don't care if that comes at England's or Argentina's expense. Andy Robinson has done well for us and we should repay his efforts with a good run in this tournament.
Also, a painful memory of the 2007 World Cup; When Sean Lamont decided to cross kick the ball towards Dan Parks, the smallest man on the pitch, who was surrounded by 3 Argentinians, in the last minute of the Quarter Final. I took the anger out on the storage-heater next to me with my fist, breaking the grill part on the top, and hurting the strawberry float out of me too.

One man should not have this much power in this game. Luckily I'm not an ordinary man.

Dunedin, what a boring place that is 
When I went there I was told it was a student place with a busy nightlife... I struggled to find an open pub on a Friday night
