Default Rugby World Cup

Bloody hell what happened there then?!

I'm no big fan of Rugby(particularly Union, prefer League) but I just had to ask that somewhere after the two results today.

Anyone been watching it?

I'm not a big fan either but i just watched the end of the france - New zealand game & it really was exciting. I watched the England match too.

Don't think i'll be converting into a proper Rugby fan just yet though, it gets boring at times and i don't understand offside!

I didn`t see it but heard a bit on the radio but didn`t expect us to win or New Zealand to lose , be great if we could win it again.

Not a huge rugby fan either but its good they got past Australia. Though this was probably down to David Campese slagging us off. He always says how poor England are and how the Aussies will win and it always seems to backfire on him. Yesterday was no different.

I much pefer League too; awful game Union. Tonights world cup game being a good example imo!

No comparison for me, as far as watch-ability and excitement goes between England v France tonight and the earlier Super League Grand Final between St. Helens v Leeds.



Very pleased for the England team however.

Scarcely follow Rugby but good result for England. Never have imagined how things have panned out in this rugby world cup(with New Zealand and Australia being knocked out), always thought Rugby was generally much more predictable.

Went for a total points in the end.
