Finally, some proper games to look forward to

Now that the England caravan of SHIT has moved off the Autumn Internationals motorway, the rugby world can focus on some proper quality vehicles, like the three matches this weekend.  

France vs NZ promises to be a belter; the Aussies will be looking to salvage some pride against Wales after losing to Scotland; and the Boks will not want to leave Europe without having added Ireland to a list of victories that presently only contains Italy.

From the point of view of quality, England get far too much coverage and attention, and I have to hold my hand up to being as guilty as everyone else to giving them the column inches - although I would hope the coverage here contains less deluded bollocks than other outlets.  

So you non-English can be happy that this blog will not be mentioning the Great White Mediocrity beyond this paragraph for at least the rest of this week as we focus on previewing each of these potentially top matches as we head toward the weekend.
