Australia are 14/5 in places. Way too big against an England side who've never played a game as big as this and have a habit of blowing hot and cold.

France + 6.5 Both teams should play a slow game, it will suit France more than it will Wales. Wales might not be so full of confidence after their performance on the weekend.

Not an oval ball fanatic since Mr Fertilizer destroyed the 95 Bok team but have watched most of the RWC matches because of the time difference. Taking a couple based purely on what I have seen at the tournament. Wales were a part score better then Australia and England look a score better then Wales - also Australia have not looked convincing. If SA were facing Ireland in the quarters the cap would be around SA -5.5. Japan beat Ireland by 7 and deservedly so. I'm not being influenced by the last half hour against Scotland as the job was already done.
England -9.5 @ 11/10
Japan +9.5 @ 15/10

Don't know much at this stage - Dupont has had back problem for the past 2 weeks but don't see it as a main issue for the quarter final and for Penaud, which will be the biggest lost for France, it seems like it is a hamstring injury but as far as I know, it did not seem a worry for the French staff - will update everybody once I know more

That said, wonder if Biggar will be playing after 2 head knock in less than 10 days - with Sam Warburton explaining on TV few days ago that France was a rubbish country in term of head knock and allowing players to play straight away, that will be an interesting topic in the next few days as it seems Biggar will be playing

The Upset?

Where will the Upset gonna.be?
I really thinks ,the Ausies game and
or France game. We have not really see the French.The most dangerous unknown animal in that Q4 finals.
The Ausies can Upset the Apple card.TheSouthern hemisphere teams have the best prep in terms of Championship. It is hard ,no fear and accurate rugby when it mattersI.
I really like France on the best plus and Ausies also on best plus.

Just a quick update on Dupont and Penaud.
Both have made another injury assessment and waiting on the final result but this is how it looks like :
- Dupont trained with the group fully today and it seems like his back problem would not be an issue for Sunday’s game.
- However, Penaud was still not training and it seems like he won’t be able to play on Sunday.

Just been catching up on posts after seeing team news, had been feeling bullish about Aus plus but BG's preview has me concerned.

I just can't get away from RWC record when get to play-off stages, they seem to get into another mode, regardless of coach or squad. I think they will be a real handful at the breakdown and i'm mystified by Ford only playing from bench.

Gone Aus +8.5 @ 17/20 in the end, but also hoping to see if any exotics appeal once points etc come out.

Hi South,
Pre- tournament long term plays are now coming home. Mine is and has been an AB v SA final $$$. Not changing my mind.
BG has been on England pre-tournament and not changing his mind! They will not get past B'Munga if they get past Aussie.

IMO NZ, SA & Wales all cruise through quarters.

For me England are favourites with good reasons v Australia, but for me this is also the game most likely to have an upset.
- Jordan Petaia is a superstar and is a genius choice by Cheika.
- Eddie Jones has adjusted his defence to counter Wallaby mid-field threat = no (swing high) Owen Farrell @ 12.
- Pocock & Hooper are more experienced than English counterparts.
- England have not played a fast pace Southern Team, they are in for a shock.
- England are already thinking about semi v NZ (big mistake).
- Aussies are desperate and have a stand up RWC record.
- Plenty of Kiwis telling Cheik how to beat the "Mitch" defence.

No bet on this game so far, but expecting english $ to come for England and get on at around Aussie +11.5. Cheers 3P

BG you and Chris have been gracious hosts all year long, especially to us opinionated Internationals. Thank you for that. It does make the site more interesting. Actually thought the French guys were SA transplants until very recently! lol

Obviously strongly disagreeing with you on the state of North v South Rugby. We do however agree on the unders on the NZ v Ireland game. Followed you, but got -45.5 on tab nz. Need to win bigger than this so have added Wales -6.5, making it a double. French have shown me nothing and "Warren Ball" will crush any French flair. Also agree with dangers of betting against the French, but Gatland too experienced too good to lose this one.

If there is loadshedding today I will be without power from 18:00 to 20:30 so will then not be able to be on the show so thought I will give my thoughts here.

Of the World Cup games' handicaps I like the Boks minus the strongest, with England minus 2nd. No strong feeling on the other two. Wales should win and although I don't like the team NZ have picked I think they should beat an Ireland team who peaked a year too early. NZ won't make the final though.

Like the unders in all four WC games, especially in the NZ/IRE game.

Mitre10 Cup semi's:

Bay of Plenty vs Manawatu I see there has been a lot of money for Bay of Plenty. I'm leaning Turbos on the plus here and have taken Manawatu +22.5. I called BOP and Hawkes Bay to fight out the Championship after week 2 when the overrated Taranaki was still favourites.

Hawkes Bay vs Otago I think the Magpies will beat the minus at home.

Tasman vs Auckland, I'm a big Mako fan, but staying out of this handicap at this stage. Looks big, but can't go against Tasman at home.

Then onto the best bet of the weekend. I can't believe this is basically a choice game. Canterbury horrible overrated because of their name. A shadow of the side of previous seasons though. Wellington will put them away easily at home. Just like Taranaki, the bookmakers keep overrating Canterbury. I'm not complaining though.

Have pending outright bets on Tasman at 14/10 and Bay of Plenty at 3/1, placed after week 2 so hope the finals are in Nelson/Blenheim and Rotorua.

I think I m gonna pass on the next RWC games except if I spot something huge
This has been a successful WC so far and with my 2 main bets on under points and tries cashing in 2 weeks, I will not waste those in games where I reckon anything could happen.
But I will share some thoughts :

Eng vs Aus : Australia has nothing to lose I reckon and that could make them dangerous. Farrell is not at the top of his game, reckon he could be targeted and Daly at full back is just a non-sense to me. I tend to agree with Quill on over and Australia H.

Nz vs Ire : the fact that Aki is out is a good news I reckon but I could put all my money on Sexton to be targeted – Kiwis knows a “simple knock” could get him of the pitch. I would go against everybody on that game and over Ireland and match on that game

Wales vs Fra : Yes I still reckon France is crap and having Iturria and Raka not even on the bench is just an aberration to me. To beat he Welsh you need to play a fast game as the Fijian managed to do but I reckon France will try play physical like they did against Tonga as there is nobody smart enough in the management to give the right direction. Still reckon it would be a close game so would go either team to win by 7 and under 2.5 tries HT (already available on betclic)

SA vs Japan : I said last Sunday that the Japan +15.5 seemed interesting and have not change my mind. Apart from that depending on the cut an over could be interesting.
