This is a big one for England in Wellington. New Zealand are a favourite to win it all, and England approach the game on the back of a bit of a shoeing by the Aussies. It seems a little more important when, if we lose this game, our main rival for the 4th spot in our group may well be picking up a point v Australia after Cyclone Marcia.

Comments on the game, while I am sleeping, can be put here….
