Wales' destiny revisited

This is just something to put out there again for all to read, with Wales through to the semi finals, facing a team that has played very flat and mediocre until their performance against England, who carries any doubt that Wales can win?

I firmly believe the final may come down to Wales vs. Australia at the moment, with New Zealand carrying injury doubts and with the loss of Dan Carter I think Australia have their chance to seize a place in the final.

With Australia only beating South Africa by a small margin of points yesterday morning and the way Wales only lost by such a small margin in the first game of Pool D (when they had the chance to win but couldn't convert the points), I am starting to believe that Wales - after their crushing display over Ireland, who beat Australia - can get to the final, and even as a Welshman who plays rugby, I'm starting to believe that winning the cup is possible!

Agree with Jono

Wales v NZ would be a final fitting of the occasion. France dont deserve it and neither do OZ given they way they have played and more importantly for their utterly nauseating arrogance.

Donald's not a bad half back either.

I'm fully confident we will beat France, given how they're playing atm. We CAN beat NZ, but it's a tough ask. Can't see Australia causing NZ any problems.

Straight after we narrowly lost against S. Africa, I told my mates that I think we're going to win this World Cup.

I'm hoping for a Wales v. N. Zealand final, and I believe that as 'World in Union' is played at the end of the T.v. coverage it will be of Sam Warburton lifting the Webb Ellis Cup.

Wales have been the better side so far in this tournament, compared to France.
There is no reason the cannot go out there on Saturday believing that they can win.
They will need to work as hard as they have so far and if they do, they will beat France.

Hold on....

Wales beat Ireland. They failed again to get over the line against South African.

Why suddenly are they going to beat everyone to win the cup.

Let's stop hyping them too much and see how they get on. They've done OK but nothing more so far

U9573 - Who has the second highest points score? Who has the second lowest points conceeded?

We also would have beaten SA if the Hook penalty had been called correctly.

I'm not saying we WILL win the RWC, just saying we CAN.

If we manage it.....

I don't care who we face in the final!!
Just to get there will almost be enough, then, it's all to play for!

(joking, Australia obviously! )
