We are a rugby family too. Off to see USA vs Samoa tomorrow in Brighton, but wish we had been there today.

I wish I was to - think I'm turning Japanese'r really think so some of them look about as Japanese as I do mind.

Cheer on The Northampton Saints boys for us the Pisi brothers and Kahn Fotualii

Have a fantastic day

I didn't even know we (the USA) had a rugby team! Cool!

[Hidden in reply to Gigi3410]

Sorry you don't

Can't believe it, we share two passions: Arsenal and England Rugby. Looking forward to six weeks of cracking rugby. Come on England!

Me to just love it

Costa was a disgrace today.

[Hidden]

I believe that England will make the final and it will be against New Zealand

I also believe England we will win it ........Come on

[shazie]

Chelsea is coming back strong.

[Hidden]

You again hows life in the US ?

Costa shouldn't be allowed on a football pitch.

Do you think USA can beat Samoa tomorrow ?

[shazie in reply to Hidden]

I was taping the game to watch it later. Thanks to you now I have to take my wife to dinner instead.

[shazie in reply to Hidden]

Costa is like FCR, very harsh but very effective. I just finished watching the game😎

[ygtgo]

I'll do the usual and just shout at the tele ....

.... you lot have got it easy ... you don't know how hard it is to keep coming back for more punishment ... and now I'm really worried .... we play Japan next !!!

( thinks ) .. me ol' dad was offered a football coaching job in New Zealand when I was a nipper ... I COULD HAVE BEEN SHOUTING FOR THE ALL BLACKS ... sob sob oh well.

[Hidden]

Everything to play for now the Boks are beatable

Life's a bitch at times

Hope you have a good tournament you pushed France all the way

Good luck

I love rugby also but the 13 man code, which is a much better spectator sport.

[Hidden in reply to wiganfan]

You sure its the giving the ball away after 6th tackles that I don't quite get

[wiganfan in reply to Hidden]

League is played at a faster pace, I find union slow in comparison. Scrums take a long time and usually end up in a penalty. Like a lot of things it is just opinion and personal preference , some people even enjoy watching cricket !!

[Hidden in reply to wiganfan]

I know I just can't believe it.

Yesterday seeing the way the Japanese never gave up was a joy to see unbelievable that they beat the Boks

I do watch the odd bit of Rugby league only when there is nothing else on : )

Wigan is that up North

[ygtgo in reply to Hidden]

No .... Wigan is down South

[prosecco1]

I'm cheering for Scotland (well, being Scottish I would), and after the way they played against Italy a few weeks ago, I'd say they have as much chance as everyone else to get to the final. 👍👍

Come on Scotland

Have a good day everyone

Hi Elle

To much Prosecco if you think the Scots will make the final, in fact if they do I will streak do our local high street completely naked and get it posted on this site if they do.

Good luck anyway

In that case, you should get ready to change your user name to the Flying Streaker!!!!

[ygtgo in reply to prosecco1]

... Steady Elle ... Steady.

Of course they would win it if they listened to me .... I keep shouting at them ... but they never learn.

Oh well ... at least Glasgow won the Pro 12, and they have been improving over the last few years ... they are trying to build a strong foundation of a well run rugby club in a footballing city ... though it will be hard for them in this years league, with 21 players away with the Scotland squad.
