The Hard Shoulder Highlights

"England's power game could make the difference..."

Both Mike Ruddock, former Wales coach, and Newstalk's 'Man in Japan' Alan Quinlan reckon England will squeak through to the Rugby World Cup Final in Japan. England's power game and ability to 'put phases together' could put the All Blacks in a spot of bother on Saturday morning at 9am.

They both joined Ivan on the Hard Shoulder to tease out how the matches might go.
