Re: Rugby Thread
Which "facts" have I got wrong then? They are correct - unless you can specify which one is wrong?
Australia's pack weak? It was just as weak, if not more so, in 2003 - didn't stop them getting to the final. They have an RWC pedigree like no other - they will be ready. They are going to the SFs - where my (correct) statistics will once again hold sway.........
Over to you, Rugbymatt........

Re: Rugby Thread
He has a point though Matt. Which game did Australia lose in the RWC NH tournaments???? I can't think of any and can't be arsed to google it. UNLESS you're suggesting that the "lost" the '91 final despite winning it? Campese and all that......

Re: Rugby Thread
OMG, you telling me!! I watched one the other day, my first and last, may I add, and nearly threw something at the tv! What bloody sport were they playing for gawd's sakes!! Tiddly winks? If a man does not come off the field bleeding, he has not played, IMO! Real men play RUGBY!
EXACTLY!!!! Chess and Checkers (ahem, sorry, Draughts)
One is a game in it's simplest form so that any Tom Dick or Harriet can play it without any skill whatsoever, the other is a thinking mans game where the victory can be won by the flair of the backs (rook, bishop, King Queen) or the grunt of the forwards (the pawns). League falls firmly in the former of the two.

Re: Rugby Thread
Portugal being in the world cup in itself is a very good achievement for an amateur team!!! Maybe this is the start of something good for Portuguese rugby!
Who will win it hmm hard to predict, I would love Australia to go all the way for obvious reasons...
Portugal Vs Australia final
I know, Im dreaming hehehe.

Re: Rugby Thread
Still no answer to my comment - which 'fact' have I got wrong?
1991 - Oz won every match inc the final
1999 - Oz won every match inc the final
Therefore........... now let me think - ah yes - they have WON EVERY RWC MATCH they have EVER played in the NH.
You could look it up on that new-fangled internet thingy, now that NZ has electricity.......
Or you could crawl back under your arrogant Kiwi rock and stop bothering serious rugby fans.
Oh and about last night.......... you predicted France by 22, I predicted Argentina by 4........ you nearly got me there, ddin't you?..... ignorant Kiwi tosser.
