Long term it may actually have been a blessing to go out tonight. I just hope that the RFU don't see a semi final being reached as a reason to not start to fix everything that is wrong with ths current state of English rugby.
Could yet be proved wrong, but the fact that both England and Argentina have made the semi finals highlights the ridiculous drawing of groups years before the tournament. There is no logic to it, and given that there are always so many 'also rans' competing at every World Cup leaving very few realistic winners, there seems little excuse getting the draw so badly stilted.
We’ll see about the blow outs.
Whichever team wins this puts 40 points + on England next week
This is mental.
