Hey JT, cam we get a Rugby World Cup tab on the navigator menu. It needs a lot of scrolling to find it at the moment and momentum is building. This could be a great asset for foreign fans if the links were a touch more obvious. thanks
Oh and how friggin boring is English rugby? They wouldn't know a try if they fell over the line carrying a ball. Eddie was smart to lock in that 4 yr contract.

A few head-high tackles in the pictures. Not including Farrell's shoulder charge.

If southern hemisphere rugby is so expansive then how come the Springboks lost? I have no issues with a tough defence and penalties-only win. England won a world cup that way.
We're talking rugby here. Not netball. None of the challenges were illegal, there were 3 referees on the field plus video recall. There were no citings either.

England are going to have to score some trys if they hop to beat the All Blacks. Penalties only is not going to cut it.

As usual World Rugby completely drop the ball when sanctioning a star NH player. A shoulder charge like that cost a clean sweep in the Lions series last year for NZ

Many SA players weren't released by their clubs for Sunday I think so not really the same team that beat the ABs in Wellington.

Agree SBW would have gotten sent from the field for that shoulder charge. Referee was influenced by the home crowd I think
