[Alan Medic]

You also got a 'free' point for the 1st match.It must be karma!

[Alan Medic]

Given my Fiji prediction, I'm happy Uruguay won at the end!

Fix? You won something didn't you RD? It's more useful than a cap!

Well done the boys in green, the Miracle of SuperBru is on...

[Alan Medic]

Well I'm glad someone got satisfaction from that performance. No Superbru miracles needed yet. We haven't reached the half way point yet.

[Alan Medic]

Round 3 is over and Round 4 starts tomorrow with South Africa v Canada. It ends on Sunday with Japan v Scotland. 12 matches and loads of points to win.

I may expel Mima08 as s/he appears to have stopped playing and it would only deny someone else winning the wooden spoon.

URGENT UPDATE......so to speak

Two games have so far been cancelled this week-end, England v France and New Zealand v Italy. This is due to possible extreme weather conditions as you probably know already, if you are reading this thread.

I don't know how Superbru will deal with this, but suggest that if you haven't locked your picks you put them down as draws. The games will be considered to have been 0-0 draws.

Scotland v Japan is another one that might go the same way.

Important Notice

Any matches which cannot be played due to the impact of Typhoon Hagibis will be deemed to be null and void on Superbru with no points awarded for the affected matches, even if the matches are officially recorded as a draw for the tournament's purposes.

We recommend making your picks based on whatever you think the results are likely to be if the matches are played. If the matches are played, points will be awarded as usual. If the matches aren't played, no points will be awarded.

It will be decided if Scotland v Japan will go ahead on Sunday morning.

Welsh team for Uruguay announced - we might have forwards playing in the backs at the end :).

[diable rouge]

There's almost perfect symmetry with the Japan v Scotland forecasts, a nation divided, sounds familiar...

[Alan Medic]

Down to the q/finals now, next week-end. The WP (Win Points) increases to 1.5 per match. If a game goes to extra time the final score after it, is what will count.

No more benefitting from 'default picks' allowed.

Meds, are you predicting the Ire game with your head or your heart?...

[Alan Medic]

I went with head, so hope I am wrong.

Wales are not mates with the Refs. No we are not.

They just asked him to stick his elbow out and he did :)

[Alan Medic]

Not a good look for the ref. I think his career is at an end anyway.

[JohnL]

It's all kicking off for the semi's this week and looking tasty. Can't wait. :)

"All four nations competing in the Rugby World Cup semi finals held press conferences this morning as they prepare for this weekend's games.

England coach Eddie Jones used his media event to accuse someone of filming his team's training sessions from a nearby apartment block. He also accused some New Zealand journalists of being "fans with keyboards"."

I'm confidently predicting a NZ-SA final (which is the best guarantee of an all-UK final you can get).
