24hrs to go - predictions!

[Dave T]

Few predictions.

Friday 9am - English enthusiasm and excitement

Friday 9.30am - opening ceremony #wtf

Friday 12pm - English heartbreak and despondancy.

Sunday 12pm - twitter trends - #heritage #farce

Sunday - Scottish wife grumpy after Scotland's hammering leading to a rubbish 4hr car journey.

 

I cant wait!!!!!!

 

[Lowdesert]

I’ve backed England.  8 point win.

1000 (1100)- Australian team forgets tribal dance moves.

12 noon (1300) - Pastis!

1pm (1400) - Sydney Morning Herald ‘Should have appointed Bellamy’.

Noon: - England win leads to grumpfest on this forum because we've nothing to moan about.

[Just Browny]

9.55am - One or both anthems butchered.

10.07 - England player forgets we are playing international rules and throws away possession thinking it is a free play.

10.15 - Australian players hold down England for what feels like a week and it is somehow justified by the ref as being ok under international rules.

10.26 - England denied a clear try by a bizarre VR decision

10.33 - Australia awarded a clear no try by a bizarre VR decision

[MattSantos]

Shouting. Lots of shouting.

 

[Dave T]

At 6am on Sunday I expect to see Scotland enter the arena wearing cheap blue t-shirts with logos and sponsors crayoned on by local schoolkids as BLK continue their shambolic performance.

Matty Russell plays most of the game shirtless much to the delight of my wife.

[FearNothing]

24 hours???? nah, 48 hours C'mon Wales!!!!!

 

oh, you meant England getting hammered by the Aussies again?? Think it'll be closer on the scoreboard than physically on the field, expect Aus to steamroller it, with England getting penalised for offside, not square, and then lying on to slow the aussie PTB...

Could be wrong, and if so it will give the 'Roos a right kick up the jacksie for the rest of the tournament....

[Amber Avenger]

2030 - Scubby gets a new England mug

(The year 2030 that is, not half 8)

[Hullfan]

I'm going to stick my neck on the line and say we'll win tomorrow!!! Come on England 22-18

You mean you expect the ref to penalise England for nothing? Yeah we all do.

[graveyard johnny]

when is the team or teams announced?

[Davo5]

Cam Smith to have several conversations with Mr Chechin resulting in a 12-1 penalty count against England,one of which results in a match winning penalty kick for Australia in the last minute.

[Jim Prendle]

Not wanting to be accused of negativity, England 66 - Australia 2.

Bateman to smash it in the centres, and score 6 tries.

C'mon England!!!!!!!

[graveyard johnny]

score prediction

aus 38 - eng 10

[Maximus Decimus]

8:00am - Me to text all RL known family and friends that I will not be watching the game until around 4:30pm.

9:00am - Delete Twitter and turn internet off my phone to prevent accidental checking of score.

12:15pm - Battle with myself about whether to just check the result, manage to win battle just.

EITHER

12:15 - 3:15pm - Somebody with whom I have never spoken about RL in my life will happen to have found out the result and will come to me either saying 'bet you're disappointed,' or 'bet you're made up.'

 

OR

 

3:15pm - 4:30pm - I will accidentally hear the score on the radio or as I'm trying to put the recording on.

A pre-emptive moan about moaning. Classic TotalRL

[Number 16]

I've not felt so absolutely confident of a resounding win since the last time we played the Aussies. 

[John Fisher]

If it was the second of a three match series I would be quite confident. Australia by 20.

[Shaggy]

Relentless doom and gloom until the other matches start and remind me of how wonderful RL world cups are.
