All you need to know from the Rugby World Cup including the latest results and the All Blacks taking the easy travel route in London.
NO FAITH IN PALOMA
Nobody can turn on their own quite like the English.
Poor old Paloma Faith is copping it for her rendition of the World Cup song, World in Union. She's working with pretty poor material with the turgid tournament song anyway but it hasn't stopped Brits mounting a campaign to have her stop singing it.
Since the 34-year-old singer's rendition of the tournament's anthem made its debut prior to England's game against Fiji, viewers have complained about the track - which is played during the opening credits and before ad breaks on British television coverage of the games.
Now supporters have started a petition calling on the broadcaster to change its theme music, saying they are "sick" of the track.
As the tournament kicked off last week, 34-year-old Faith was heavily criticised on social media with comments saying she "murdered" the song and others saying their cat could have sung it better. Another commented: "It sounds like someone paid a bribe to let their tone deaf child be on telly."
This has been followed with a campaign on change.org called "Petition to remove Paloma Faith from the Rugby World Cup".
Looking for a new way to say you're on top of things? Sam Cane has it covered. We think we've found the GIF of the tournament: Cane joyfully jumping onto a box during the All Blacks gym session this week.
Box jumping is not for the faint-hearted - it's harder than you think, and there's a potential for injury (or severe embarrassment) so AB fans should be relieved Cane nailed it.
Canada are proving to be the big boppers of world rugby off the field after eating World Cup organisers out of house and home.
The team's kitchen staff needed a supermarket scramble for steaks after the squad consumed 22lbs of roast beef in 15 minutes.
The players need more than 5000 calories a day, with an allowance of bacon, pancakes, maple syrup, blueberries, strawberries and yoghurt on match days.
They also carry their own supply of hot sauce.
SLAMMING SAM
Too long in Australia with those NRL types?
Sam Burgess, who has been parachuted into the England team for their key clash with Wales on Sunday morning, has ratcheted up the tension between the sides by appearing to mischievously ask who his opposite number Scott Williams was.
After the England coach Stuart Lancaster confirmed the rugby league convert would start at centre, Burgess was asked about a comment from Williams earlier this week in which he suggested he would find it easier to defend against him than the injured Jonathan Joseph.
"Who's that?" replied Burgess, who was effective as a substitute against Fiji and will now start at Twickenham only 10 months after switching codes after winning an NRL premiership with South Sydney. It was impossible to know whether Burgess was joking, genuinely did not know or had misheard. His inflection suggested the first of those. Either way, he soon became the target of ire for Welsh fans on social media.
As his questioner explained, he added: "Oh yes. OK, yes. I'll just wait and see. I'll just let my performance do the talking on Saturday."
SHOCK, HORROR, GASP!
Wales' New Zealand coach Warren Gatland is in trouble again.
Wales have received an official warning from World Rugby after a group of players from outside their World Cup squad (gasp!) took part in training with them on Wednesday.
Back-up players who do not make the final 31-man World Cup squad are not allowed to participate in training sessions with the official group.
The sport's governing body said in a statement: "While World Rugby is satisfied that no deliberate breach was intended, an official warning has been issued to the WRU. All participating teams have been informed that additional players from the extended squad, including potential injury replacements, may not be included in any training sessions."
There was little prospect of a points deduction being imposed for the breach, but the incident was an unwelcome distraction for Gatland as he named his side to face England at Twickenham.
Gatland said: "I am sure you've all read the statement. We haven't broken any rules. According to World Rugby, we've broken the spirit of the rules, so I don't know what that means. We haven't done anything underhand, and I don't know what we've done wrong. You've either got rules or no rules, so what does spirit of the rules mean? It's either in the rules or not."
WALLABIES COCKY
The Wallabies are upbeat despite their grinding win against Fiji, adamant the result will be used as the foundation for their path to lifting the World Cup.
But playmaker Bernard Foley conceded the Wallabies lacked polish in a 28-13 triumph and failed to find the try-scoring potency needed to be a genuine threat in the tournament. The Wallabies walked away from Cardiff content with a first-up victory and blowing out the cobwebs of six weeks of training. They also know they need rapid improvement to be ready to tackle England and Wales in the "pool of death".
"A lot of guys haven't played footy in six weeks so we always knew that was going to be challenging," Foley said. "We were definitely excited with the opportunities we created, there were times we could've finished a bit better or been able to throw that last pass. But in saying that we were still creating opportunities and that's what we ask ... maybe the decision-making and that final pass let us down a little bit. But it was a really good stepping stone for us starting this tournament. But there's so many potent players [in the Wallabies'] back line that if we can create, I'm sure we can finish better."
