Not sure, but I think that this is the first time since they were introduced that England have finished with a minus points difference Appalling Mike

Had there been three sides on the field, England would have finished fourth! What happened to the side that played so well against France? I thought that the Aki red card was harsh - had he been the carrier and Vunipola the tackler, i think it could have gone the other way round! Mike

Ah, thanks for the update - under those circumstances it is very understandable Regards Mike

I wonder why - it was really useful. I have tried, so far without success, to find an alternative Mike

Yes, that's the link I use - if you look at the top line after 'countries' it used to say 'stats' which was an invaluable source of information on players and matches. For a few days clicking on it just went back to the home page, now it is gone altogether Mike

Does anyone else use this site -it used to have a very useful stats section but this has disappeared Mike

Well done Scotland - so pleased for them - they really deserved the win, and with better referring the margin would have been greater Mike

So, well done Scotland so far - France should be done to 13 men and 14-0 behind 0 but then, with SH refsm what can ine expect? Mike

So, after having men yards offside, France get a penalty and then a try - why bother turning up with SH refs like these two?

What on earth? If Tuilagi deserved a red card yesterday - seeing a truly dangerous tip tackle only get a yellow - what is going on? Mike

SO 13 men beat 15 plus the ref - not bad going. The red was ridiculous - it was a fast moving collision and unless Rugby cn somehow defy the simple laws of physics, it will often happen - there was an earlier collisoin when Alun Wyn Jones and an England player - can't remember who - clashed...

I'll do my best! Mike

I can but hope!! Mike

Well done, South Africa - a totally deserved win. Can't remember the last time I saw an England scrum dismantled so comprehensively that it was embarrassing. At 82 I don't expect to be around next time, so this was my last chance to see England lift the trophy again Mike

The scrums are already uncontested to all intents - but it's only England who aren't contesting. Daley having his worst game for a while, but he's not alone - mistake after mistake. All praise to SA they are bossing tis Mike

I’m still pinching myself -not only did England win in line with my hopes but against my expectations, but the score line flattered the All Blacks to a considerable degree. The first disallowed ‘try’ the TMO got it absolutely right, but the second? It is surely debatable? After all, George had...

I wish I could agree with you, but having watched both of yesterday's qurter-finals, I cannot honestly see England beating the All Blacks - but I would love to be wrong Mike

Talk about a game of two halves. Worried that Argentina cut Tonga to pieces early on, remembering how long England took to get going against them Mike

That last minute try needlessly conceded really irritates me - imagine the scenario (admittedly pretty unlikely). England's last match is against France. They meet, both having three victories behind them and the match is a draw, with them level on match points including bonus points at the end...

What was Daley thinking about - the hooter had gone, he was in space in his own half - all he had to do was kick it out. Game over 45-0. Instead he tries to show off and the result is a try to USA, something that they hadn't looked like achieving all game MIke
