Pooper versus the Kamikaze Kids in the Battle of the Breakdown. It sounds like something more suited to WrestleMania than the World Cup but make no mistake how decisive it will be in determining whether England or Australia advance to the semi-finals on Saturday.
In the white corner there are Tom Curry and Sam Underhill. Thick as thieves off the field and forming a burgeoning partnership as England’s flankers on it. They have started only three matches together, they have only 28 caps between them and a combined age of 44 but are rapidly establishing themselves a fearsome reputation.
