Ball bother: England are waiting to find out if they will be punished for Jonny Wilkinson attempting to change the ball for a conversion during the group game with Romania.
Back up: Thomas Waldrom has officially been added to England’s squad as a replacement for Andrew Sheridan. The kiwi-born number eight is available for selection against Scotland this weekend.
Odds on Ashton: Chris Ashton is still the bookies favourite to be top try scorer during the World Cup. The Northampton wing is at 11/4 with Vincent Clerc his closest competition at 9/2.
Tuilagi to remain a Tiger: Manu Tuilagi has played down reports he is set to swap the Aviva Premiership for the Super 15. England’s rising star says that he hopes to play in many World Cups for his adopted country.
Room for improvement: All Blacks’ Coach Graham Henry has rated his sides’ recent exploits as ‘8 out of 10’ in the group stages. New Zealand have been in exhilarating form so far but Henry says they can still improve…gulp.
