RWC Week 1: England v Argentina

[sparky]

If Foster’s All Blacks had had a man sent off after three minutes, they’d have absolutely wilted.

Maybe that’s the script for the Italy game?

I wonder what the highest score is in WC without a try.

Hope we find out

Chasers were well in front of the kicker then

Bloody awful game to watch -

But Fossie should be watching .... basic shit - territory game , make your tackles and kick your penalties - if these Muppets can do it....

Yes, but England have disciplined forwards and backs who can kick properly.

No, our players are the absolute muppets who fall apart when they face adversity.

Argies can go straight back to the airport after the game.

Commentator: "England continue to win penalties, it's like a fruit machine"

Different styles of play is what makes rugby so good.

Raynal won't be holidaying in Buenos Aires any time soon.

Part of the problem is New Zealanders will watch this game and be dismissive of England and how they are playing. We will completely ignore our own faults and refuse to learn from other countries because they are boring and because we feel we play rugby much better. The result is we will continue to lose game after game, with the odd exception when we get an open game.

F*** me fellas this is a Pom/Puma game thread. The world rugby doen't revolve around ABs even if we want it too.

Yes, it won't be just the Aussies who don't like him.

We have been playing rippa rugby for about 7 years.

Rugby totally void of any adventure, flare or the art of putting a teammate into space.
