I think the group stage was too long. And I'd prefer if the two great group games were semi-finals as the rankings suggested they be. But other than that pretty good tournament, even if the eventual winner would be far down my list of who I'd like to have seen win.its so weird, ive see just as many people claiming this is the best RWC ever...as ive seen people claiming its the worst
another sign of the divide in what large groups of us fans want to see
I also think the Eng V SA game was better than a lot suggested. It was a classic in the rain slugfest which is just as much as a part of the sport as when the conditions actually favour ball in hand rugby.
