I'm here. Kiwi living in England. ????????

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:34

The red blue England kit is quite awful. ( Per match chit chat)???? No beer here. Will have a g&t

honeysucklejasmine · 18/09/2015 19:34

Yep! Welsh/English mix here, I'll just enjoy the games I think!

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:35

Sorry about all the ?????!?'s. I'm on the AP. ??Bear with, bare with.

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:36

I love Fiji but I will support my adopted nation tonight.

gingercat02 · 18/09/2015 19:36

Not many rugby fans on MN I guess LovelyFriend We're a mixed bag in our house DS is English and DH is Scottish. Makes for an interesting tournament Grin

Yayyy I'm in. Welsh through and through, just want to see some fantastic rugby. Excited much.

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:37

Yes I guess my DC are English too! But they are in bed Grin

PersonalClown · 18/09/2015 19:39

Got the Rose on here!

Guadalupe · 18/09/2015 19:39

Dh and ds1 are there. They sounded just a little bit excited when I spoke them an hour ago. Grin

GudrunBrangwen · 18/09/2015 19:40

Is there a game tonight? Our tv aerial is f*cked so we can't watch anything. or is it just the opening thingy?

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:40

They will come Ginger. Be patient. ????I'm not sure about anyone's form going into WC. ????England have a tough group. Mighty All Blacks to win????MNHQ please can we have a rugby ball? A kiwi? The Welsh have Dragon so I do feel at a disadvantage

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:41

The AP has lost it.

vvviola · 18/09/2015 19:43

Irish here, with a Kiwi DH.

We have a finely balanced agreement - when Ireland play we both support Ireland, when the All Blacks play we both support the All Blacks. When they play each other, all bets are off Grin

Luckystar1 · 18/09/2015 19:47

I'm Irish in England, DH is English, DS is a baby and as mummy applied for the passport Nd bought his rugby kit, he too is Irish!!! Can't frigging wait!!

gingercat02 · 18/09/2015 19:50

Yeah more fans of the odd shaped ball. I've told ds (7) he can stay up for a bit to watch some of tonight's match. Tomorrow afternoon is all mine. I'm not up on for this year which is unusual but blindly expect Ireland to win as I always do

gingercat02 · 18/09/2015 19:51

Form FFS I'm very up for it (rugby)

OP posts:
honeysucklejasmine · 18/09/2015 19:53

DH is American but he doesn't really care about rugby.

England do have a tough group though!

Luckystar1 · 18/09/2015 19:53

Err of course Ireland will win, the artic winds of my grief if we don't are enough to scare anyone into letting us win!

rugbychick · 18/09/2015 19:54

I'm watching. Very excited. I'm English, so will be cheering for them. But I do have Australian citizenship (gained as an adult) so will cheer for Australia too. Just tough when England are playing Australia! ??I've been watching the pre match chat, and drooling over Jonny! I've loved him since the late 90's.

CordeliaFrost · 18/09/2015 19:54

Huge rugby fan here.

My dad is American, mum is English, and I was born in the US. However I've lived in England since the age of four, so I'm England all the way.

USA aren't known for their rugby prowess, but if England played USA at any stage, I'd back England but hope they didn't thrash USA. Grin

MrsTrentReznor · 18/09/2015 19:55

I'm in! I'm crocheting roses to wear to the England Vs Uraguay game... curry on the way, wine in the fridge.
Yay! Grin

LovelyFriend · 18/09/2015 19:58

Have you seen the Beats By Dre WC films?

Here is the NZ one:

And England:

there must be more.

My lapdog is behaving very badly this evening!
