Rugby World Cup Finally Starts Getting Interesting

We’re finally into the knockout stage for the 2007 Rugby World Cup, which means this competition finally might be worth watching again. With Malice serves up a full preview of this weekend’s quarterfinal matches.

I’ll just say this — if the pool winners don’t all advance to the semifinals, that’s an upset. Scotland might have a shot of advancing past Argentina, but really, that’s about it. I’m fully expecting only Southern Hemisphere teams to be left standing by Monday morning.

So there. Suck it, European rugby.
