Wow, I really thought there'd be a thread for this but apparently not.
For those of you who don't know the World Cup has just got underway in France this week and there have been some great matches so far.
Fixtures (http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_union/3711557.stm)
I managed to catch England vs the USA (in which, fair play to them the US gave England a good match), South Africa vs Samoa (quite a dirty match this one but great nonetheless) and Ireland vs. Namibia (in which Ireland were quite shocking.)
I will of course be supporting my native Ireland all the way, but in relation to who'll win in the long-run I reckon Australia, New Zealand and South Africa are the forerunners. England have no chance this year.
