    Wales are in this boots and all. I realise Australia have won two world cups in jolly old but they haven't excelled their recently.

    wales have capable replacements they just can't afford any more injuries. Mike Phillips is not great but he is not the worst either. He also played in the last World Cup which means a lot.

    wales would beat England at the millennium stadium they are a fine side with or without Leigh halfpenny

    I don't see it, they have lost three key players and don't really have much depth.

    Also think Australia are a lot better then people think, if Foley and whoever they go with at halfback can get some form back they should go all the way to the final I think.

    Time will tell...

    Not really sure why you rate Wales so highly, Hurricane.
    They're pretty ordinary.

    Can you see them beating the All Blacks? Like the Wallabies recently did?

    No it isn't. There are 8 games at the Millenium Stadium in Cardiff, including 2 quarter finals.

    They could easily topple the all blacks. Well not easily but I would give them a 25% chance in a knockout match.

    People must remember this is a World Cup. Everyone lifts for a World Cup except us for some reason we play the same.

    I would give them a 5% chance. They haven't beaten us in about 60 years.

    Like Wales would ever be able to host the WC on its own

    (that said the whole financially optimized fixture list is a joke)

    Uruguay would be smashing this if they could stay onside.

    Wales much better in the second half. Good result for them building up that points difference which might be important in this pool.
