    ….and I say that as a bloke who isn’t a massive rugby fan, loved the Ireland game last night and this looks even better at the moment

    What a game!
  • If you have any interest in rugby, and are not watching, just get yourself in front of a TV now!

    This is breathtaking stuff.

    We haven't got a chance against one of these next week!
  • Both teams knackering themselves out before England.

  • The difference in quality between this match and Ire v NZ, and then the Wales and England QFs is so stark.

    This match is mental

    Yeah, England playing within themselves to conserve energy for the SF was a clever move.  
    France and South Africa going to be exhausted and neither can defend.

    France answer AGAIN. Three tries each side in the first 30 minutes.

    What a first half blinding 
  • Rugby Union at it's best is always an awe inspiring display of sport.

    Pleased with how the weekend has worked out, as got a call on Friday from my client who is a sponsor of the tournament. Off to Paris next Saturday for our semi-final. And IF we make it there - the final as well.

    I hope they don't upgrade the yellow to a red. The game needs to have 15v15

    Me too. Stuck 3 quid on Etzebeth to score a try in the 80
  • De Klerk has been manic since coming on, rushing everything, feels like SA mistakes are coming way too often now.
