[QUOTE="Lardinho, post: 153254"] I too would love to see the Argies win it if England don't. The only 2 teams I didn't want to win it went home on Saturday and its not personal either; Had Australia won this RWC, that would have been 3 wins in total and they would have been allowed to keep that trophy for ever and a new one would have to be made, just like Brazil keeping the Jules Rimet trophy, leading to the newer design of today. Aussies being the only team to have won it twice, but I didn't want the Kiwis to win either, as I was/am pretty sure they are going to win their own world cup in 2011, so this one would have made 2 and 2011 made 3, meaning they keep it forever. Well SA won't host the WC until 2015 at least and until they have 2 RWC wins, I don't begrudge them winning it, so wanted them to win it if it was a SANZAR team. France and the Argies of course haven't won a single one, France having been to the finals twice though and consistantl near the top of the tree for 20 years, if its France vs. SA final I will be backing France. If its France vs. Argentina, I honestly wouldn't mind who won, it would be amazing either way to have yet another new winner of the trophy. I hope none of that happens and England become the first team to win 2 in a row, but I find that very unlikely. [/QUOTE]
