Rugby World Cup 2019

NZ/England in the semis should probably be the Final tbh.

I’d just like to congratulate NZ on their win next weekend, richly deserved.

NZ/England in the semis should probably be the Final tbh.

NZ vs SA is the right final, and will be the best contest. I’d actually rather see Wales play the Kiwis in the final.

My dad (he's from Dublin) sent me this, this morning.

 

[Okajima]

Go on England!

It won't happen but I'd love to see France knock Wales out.
I live closer to France than to Wales and I've been there a lot more too. Welsh rugby supporters, no Welsh sports fans, no all Welsh people are terrible winners and losers.

Dan Biggar playing against France wouldn't be allowed in MMA. He was knocked out against Fiji 11 days ago and also went off after failing a head injury assessment in the Australia match 21 days ago.
There are no 30-60 day AC suspensions in rugby.

Edit 5-0 France, good start but it won't last, the missedeasy conversion sums up France. Allez les Bleus anyway.

Another Edit 12-0 France with 9 minutes gone, maybe just maybe.

Not so fast mate.

Wales look terrible here and Jonathon Davies is a huge loss for them

 

[Zaraf]

That was close. It somehow mirrors 2011 semi-final with that red card and 1 pt difference.

 

[Okajima]

This game sucks ass.

A whistle every 3 seconds. Boring as fuck.

 

[LEWIS540]

Wales were very lucky. France deserves.

Japan doing pretty well against SA, thus far. Hopefully they can spring the upset of all upsets (again), but you fancy SA to turn it up in the second half ala Scotland.

England and NZ the clear 2 best teams..... should be the final.

The likely NZ v SA final would be uninspiring.

 

[A Pennysworth]

SA playing how I expected. Japan playing lights out. For any team to win against SA they need to neutralize their halfback. Without him being as active their attack loses direction and shape.

 

[A Pennysworth]

I think Barnes should ref the final.

 

[Okajima]

I'm so bored I could fucking cry.

 

[A Pennysworth]

SA kicker missing 3 shots at goal is unheard of.

 

[A Pennysworth]

Once again the stats dont match the score.

 

[sheddy]

It's a shame Japan didn't come out of the dressing room at half time.

I think Wales in the final.
And fingers crossed we, England, beat NZ.

 

[MaureenCretis]

Wales want it more. To be Welsh is to have nothing in your life outside of supporting your national rugby team. It is the only reason for your existence and it helps rationalise their obsession with beating England at rugby. You’d be obsessed if you had literally nothing else to think about.

 

[ChrisCross]

I don't want to see the All Blacks win the world cup again but then I don't want to see a England v South Africa final if it's like a the 2007 one as that was a stinker.
Maybe a world international league os not a bad idea now ?

 

[A Pennysworth]

Japan looked like a top tier nation, whilst Australia and in some respects Ireland looked like second tier. Japan deserves to be in an international comp. They aren't quite as good as Argentina but they are hell of a lot better than Italy.
