Wales can lay claim to being the biggest draw card of the World Cup as they chase their shot at history tonight.
Eden Park is close to a sellout for Wales’ semifinal clash with France and in Cardiff the “full house” signs have gone up at Millennium Stadium as 62,000 fans cram into the massive arena to watch a live broadcast on huge video screens.
The rugby-mad principality can’t get enough of the Red Dragons at the moment as they play just their second semifinal in 24 years.
1987 All Blacks Rugby World Cup winning coach Sir Brian Lochore said Wales will reach the finals of this year’s World Cup.
1987 World Cup winning All Black Michael Jones believes otherwise and is betting on France to advance.
The first semifinal of the Rugby World Cup today at 8pm will see France meet Wales and tomorrow at 8pm the All Blacks meet the Wallabies and the live commentaries of both matches can be heard on our sister station, Viti FM with Malakai Veisamasama and Ilivasi Tabua.
