Make no mistakes the japs are a good side, fancy that they il beat Scotland. The Scots have got f**k all up front but unlike us yield a decent 3/4s. Similar score too ourselves

I could agree with you but then we'd both be wrong.

I think Ireland will implode in this WC with the north beating the Be Jaysus outta the south in a dressing room brawl after some ladyboy says he was raped by a leprechaun from bundy akis country

Japan have 4 days more rest - between game 3 and 4 - than Scotland, so advantage Japan there?

England are hard to watch. A horrible style of rugby more akin to Rugby league. They are not the only team playing like this but they take it to a whole new level. Awful stuff.

Yeah, it’s incredibly boring. A lot of rugby is now though. I was looking forward to this game, unfortunately the red card ended it as a contest.

France and England make the 1/4 finals and play each other next week to decide who finishes top.

It’s likely the winners would face Australia and then NZ.
RU would face Wales and SA.

I think England should be playing the 2nd team next week and ensuring the first team is ready for the 1/4 finals whoever they play.

The 1/4 , 1/2 and Final are only a week apart.

Is this a new thing that the goys can’t play a match every 6 or 7 days?
Don’t they do that all the time for their clubs/provinces?

Ireland's top players over the past 10-15 years average about half the amount of club games per season that the English and French players play I would say. They are consistently wrapped in bubble wrap.

Tbf, rugby at Test Level is so physically intense these days that you can't guarantee to reproduce your best week in, week out.

I mean, there are only so many drugs you can shovel down you before you go Full Incredible Hulk... Shocked

No.....never.
So most players can’t play every week because of the physicality of the game?
Doesn’t say much about the modern game, does it?
