I got 2x England v Fiji in the opening game (top price of ?315 per ticket though as I chose the option to bump up to next price level if unsuccessful) and two mid-priced tickets for QF1 (if England win their group they play in this QF). I applied for 2 tickets for all group games, both possible QFs, both SFs and the Final.


Will have to think long and hard about the Fiji game cos that is a LOT of money for an essentially meaningless (hopefully) game.


From what i've been hearing, those that applied for 2 tickets per game rather than 4 had more luck.

Does that mean tj you don't have to purchase them? It is a huge amount for that fixture. I was looking at the RWC website yesterday and there were tickets for France v Ireland @ ?250 a pop. That's a lot too though a more attractive fixture. Mind you the way Fiji can play can be very entertaining.

Mine were ?175 each - no far from cheap but wanted to go. Had no luck with final and semi - but of course these were even more expensive anyways. My next door neighbour got semi tickets but


AM - all tickets available after allocation to rugby clubs etc were through the ballot. if after the ballot there are tickets still left you can buy direct - eg the ?250 France Ireland ones it seems were not taken up.

Great Game! Almost too close to call.... However..


England didn't get the points on the board early which was similar to their game against the Welsh. Their drop kick showed they were aware they needed to get points on the board early. There was no way they would have an easy run to come back in the second half against the irish.


Great game. There is a massive night on the cards in Dublin for everyone. Wish I was there!


The game was won

The Flying Pig is the best place to watch rugby locally I think. You can book a table near the screen, they are very accommodating. Great day in there on Saturday.

    • This is simply untrue. The area is not 2/3 storeys maximum. Hambledon Court is on the other side of tracks from the Jewson site on Burrow Rd, is 8 storeys, and is barely known (let alone bothersome) to most people in East Dulwich. Felbridge House, Petworth House etc on the opposite side of the station from the new development are all 5 storeys tall. East Dulwich Charter (which neighbours the new development) is itself 4-5 storeys (depending on which block you're talking about). What's more, Hambledon Court was finished in about 1978 iirc and no-one has built anything similar around here since then - so the "slippery slope" "genie in the bottle" argument doesn't work either. You can't simultaneously argue that Southwark is too slow in approving new construction but also suggest this will lead to a flood of new high-rise housing! At current rates of approval, we can expect our next 8 storey building to arrive in...2072!
    • I checked - the Hanway Street place was Mandeer - it moved to New Oxford Street I think and was replaced by Hakkasan - very different prices. 
    • Suppose it depends on how many Christmas cards from family and friends you’re waiting to receive. It’s been the Christmas period so surely give the post delivery service some leeway. Like Sue I’ve not posted off so many this year but some I still write letters to  e.g my late mum’s cousins and other family  but hey ho that’s something I do and enjoy.  I used to hand deliver Christmas cards to a lot of neighbours on my street but gave up this year as realised that most of them I don’t see or speak to and can only count on a few to call a true friend or neighbour.
