Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
Toulouse has lost most of its half-backs...
Deserved win for Wales, the French played rather well in the second half, but did far too many stupid mistakes. (10 minutes left, you take the try, for honour's sake)
I'm worried about the French scrum though, with Servat gone, and no one to really take his place (Swarzesky...). Bonnaire is retired too, and most of the forwards in the Top 14 are foreigners, so there are few young players to take their places.

Let's hope the U20 forwards, who were impressive, will be early blossomers.Originally Posted by Paedric
Especially Tolofua, who will have Servat to train him in Toulouse now...
Also, worthy of note :
France ended the game playing :
A spent scum half as scrum half.
A scrum half as fly-half.
An outside centre as inside centre.
A former wing as outside centre (that's ok.)
A centre as right wingman.
A full back as left wingman.
A fly half as full back.
The, PSA ?

Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
Ireland is playing shite right now, but Rob Kearney is a GOD under the high ball. One of the best, if not THE best fullbacks i ever saw.
What makes a real American? A cowboy hat? Enjoying a fine T-bone
steak? Going to a baseball game? Shooting a gun? Maybe it’s the freedom to go
into a poor country and tell them how to do things?! Heh! Those are all great
qualities! But one thing that makes a true patriot is the ability to choose
an American car! When you buy an import you take a hot meal off a hard
working American’s table. There, there! This poor girl is going
to starve to death, just because you bought a cheaper, more efficient
Maibazu. Without gross symbols of excess, what will Americans have to look up
to? Our great industries is a threaten! Cars, pornography, armaments! And
they need your help! So the next time you buy a car, a piece of adult
literature or a missile defense system! Make sure you do the American thing!

That's revenge for stealing our world cup France.

Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
Having their scrum pulverized by England's doesn't help.
Somebody's still mad at having Warburton stupidly squandering a chance of being crushed by the All Blacks...

Bad day.
Ireland are missing several key players.

A well deserved balm, tbh.
I think I'll be wearing my red dragon jersey tonight in the pub : it is a fitting tribute, and it has green in it, so I won't get pinched. :p

Never seen such domination in the scrum.

I'd quite easily rank them fourth in the tornument anyway, missing players in this game or not.
It's going to be a good night out in Cardiff tonight, regardless of what colour I'm wearing lol

Well, back to club rugby, now.

Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
Great game between Wales and France. A victory well-deserved.
On a different note: Belgium has been promoted to group 1A. Feels good, bro. I really hope that by some miracle we end up qualified for the RWC 2015, because it'd be a major boost for rugby in this country.

Really excited, yeah. Though I think we're going to get massacred.

I have a national team member in my year at school. He's really positive too. Players like Debaty (who's switched to France obviously) are coming thick and fast.Really excited, yeah. Though I think we're going to get massacred.
Russia and Romania are also teams on the rise. I hope the Six Nations expands one day. Maybe we could have a Rest Of Europe XV with Italy and aforementioned countries competing for the title itself.

Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
One of the players in the national team comes from my club (Sep Debacker), and he seemed eager. He put up a ton of weight, though lol
That would be a dream come true.They could form a competition on their own.

Re: The Rugby Union thread!!
Missing Paul O'Connell and Brian O'Driscoll is decisive.
No lock or centre Wales have can compare to these men. No player born in Wales will ever compare to BOD.
