Rugby World Cup 2019

[minmooch]

Can't see a thread on this ....

Any rugby lovers here? Not many of my girlfriends share my love of rugby.

France/Argentina - cracking close match.

Japan/Russia - glad the home team won.

Australia/Fiji fantastic first half.

And now the All Blacks v Springboks - can't wait ....

I can’t bear it!!

Don't worry - we don't have daylight saving in Japan but the matches are at 17:00 today and 18:00 tomorrow local time, meaning they are both at 9am British time

We're on holiday. DH has woken us up at 4am to watch the match. England had better bloody win!

Doris Stuart Barnes? He's refing the final (if England don't get there) and it's his last WC.

I can’t watch

I’ve got a cushion

After discussion surrounding reaction to the Haka, this is pretty much perfect

He is SO like his dad!

Feel like we are very evenly matched at the moment. Could easily go either way.

What a first half. 8 turnovers won by England. Come on - spectacular! And had that try been allowed ....

Yes!!!!!!

Half time and England lead 10-0. That is something I didn't expect. A disallowed try too. I am well surprised. Go on England.

I'm rooting for Wales tomorrow. A Six Nations final would be hilarious, not that my chooks are being counted...

Thanks @TanteRose My mind is set at rest :)

That first half was a cracker. If Farrell's not 100% he needs to come off. They haven't got any slack in this game. Being in the lead at half time means nothing.

Hope Farrell's not seriously injured 🤞🏻

They've got a long way to go @AlunWynsKnee but I think I'd rather them come out for the second half 10 points ahead than behind.

It's a great balanced game and we've got every chance now to win.

Come on England! 🏉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿🏉🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Bloody hell what a first half !

What's the significance of the V. Awful lot of foot stamping on social media about it.

V for victory ?

Mindgames 🤣

What?!!!
He had his hand on the ball

More why so much foot stamping about it.

Why standing in a v so significant to NZ. If the haka is apparently insignificant to psychology advantage why is not standing in a straight linemarveling significant?

Ffs 2 disallowed now!! This is so tense.

Oh wow this game isn't good for my nerves
Come one England! 🏉

On even

Oh dear.

England mustn’t panic now.

What were they thinking with that throw?

Got to keep calm!

Dear god there's no calm in this house!
