RWC Week 1: France v All Blacks

@ACT-Crusader said in RWC: France v All Blacks:

I’m less concerned about the forwards and more concerned about the likes of ALB throwing intercepts and rushing out of the line.

Havili excels in both of those.

Ooh let’s play that game. Or a card from ALB…

I've never been less enthused for the start of a RWC, if it was a really early start I would just miss it. But I will get up with a sense of foster induced dread. Yes we will be chip kicking from our 22. Sigh.

You can tell everyone is nervous about this game.

This thread is a tough read

I feel less enthusiastic about the start of this RWC as any one. Ever. Another thing Fozzie has taken from me. fluffybunny

Suggest you don’t watch. You aren’t enthusiastic and want foster to lose so he doesn’t have a legacy to his name. Even if no one thinks foster is a great coach I’d still take the win thanks.

Well fuck me, another visit from the thought police. I'm sure I'll be fine once the games start. And the Fozz statement was glib. Mainly...

You need a chill pill. And cheer up!

Funny, that's what I was thinking about you and Dan. Just because I feel a certain way that isn't consistent with your own view, no need to tell me that I'm wrong

I’m sorry to have to do this, but you’re wrong again.

Tough day, finding out you’re not a proper supporter of the legions of evil AND that you’ve fundamentally misunderstood the purpose of the Fern. Suggest you watch the start of the RWC to console yoursel… nevermind.

They're like clockwork, runners up every 12...

And SA only win every 12 years so ..

But we also win every time Bill is contested in France. And whenever the RWC is in the Northern Hemisphere (except on those poxy islands off the coast of Europe.)

But most of all, we win whenever we have the best team that wins all its knockout games.

@Machpants I really don't know how good this AB team is.
I am hoping for calm accuracy. Any dinks inside our half and I may turn the TV off.

Your team is in a good place to win this, no denying from me.

And so are your evil bastards. I was just trying to convince myself that the apparent cycle is arbitrary… didn’t work

This game's at 3am for me, so watching a replay it is. Hope we have tricks ready.

Better hope you make it out of your pool.

I do hope that. Also hope that we then win the next three games on the trot.

I’m greedy like that.
