Rugby Union 23/24 Discussion

That's a very long yellow card warning for a specific infringement. Correct call to give the penalty though.
 
I don’t understand why it wouldn’t be two players off. Probably won’t make a difference anyway.
 
I wouldn't celebrate yet if I was England. Dan Cole still has to survive a scrum.
 
Well I have to say that the substitutions there were awful.

Randall ruined Ford with that last pass
Ford missed 2 match winning attempts and the tackle on Telea
Front row were hammered at every scrum

……otherwise great fun :lol:
 
England vs New Zealand at Twickenham at 3:10 BST and I expect England to win by a little more than a converted try. In fact, I'd say that England, Ireland and France should all expect to beat New Zealand this November. Doesn't mean they will but anything less than a win should be a big disappointment. Gone of the days where if you lost by 7 points or fewer to the All Blacks you could walk off the field feeling like you'd done well, this All Blacks side is a shadow of the great sides that we saw 8-10+ years ago and are there for the taking.

This aged well.
 
Here comes the Irish influx to the thread. Thought it was a pretty fun game, England’s bench was a big downgrade, which you can’t afford in international rugby.

I thought the rule changes around box kicks and stopping blocks made a difference.

Never mind that shit mate, here, I’ve got a spare Fiji kit for you to stick on :lol:
 
Tbf, even I can’t be arsed to watch Scotland….and I’ll generally watch any rugby
I thought the same, but then I realised the 5.30 game was Wolves v Palace. I’ll literally watch anything to avoid that :lol:

Battle of the shitshows :lol:

Fortunately I’m taking the missus out for dinner so don’t have to worry about the low quality of sport tonight
 
I was gonna watch the F1 qualifying instead but that's been delayed due to torrential rain but arguably still more interesting.
I’ve flicked between that, the cricket and college football.

Enjoy. Mines ill at the moment so I’m a glorified lemsip and food provider at the moment.
