I guess not many rugby fans on DW given the lack of a RWC thread so far. Probably because the US sucks at rugby, the Dutch don't really play it and Russia are too busy bombing Syria.
Don't we have a few poms on here? If we do it's probably no wonder they've kept quiet about it given how shit they played.
Wallabies for RWC 2015 glory!!!
 
Canada was absolute rubbish. We couldn't get a win against anyone. Who had more skills than the States as a loyal Commonwealth nation - must be all the dairy and office work we're all fragile gits in stilts.

We lost to bloody Romania. When did those Eastern European Latins pick up the sport? We actually play this in high school with proper grounds.
 
And everyone knows my alternative to Canada is England because of my heritage but they were a shambles too.
 
Back when the last WC was in Australia in 2003 my flatmate at the time, who was a pom from Derbyshire met the Canadian team on a night out, and ended up dating the captains brother and even living together in Derby a few years later. Sadly the brother was quite the nerd and not the strapping bloke that his brother was.
 
You need to explain to Americans that Rugby is just like football only it's played by men.
 
You mean Gridiron right not football football (what we and the US call soccer)? I'll tell you what I'm bloody sick to death of all the Jarryd Hayne/49ers coverage here in Australia everytime he scratches his balls on the field there is a story about it here.
 
Thoughts of cannibalism always crossed my mind when the All Blacks perform the haka.

Not sure yank football has any comparable ritual. Brees and the Saints maybe.

And it looks like it is all Commonwealth nations except the pesky one that wants to assert their sovereignty over some island that was there before their nation was born.

Jarryd who?
 
New Zealand are in. If Argentina get in, they'd be both in the footy and rugby finals. England would be so jealous.
 
They pretty much suck at ecery game they've initially created: Football (soccer), rugby and cricket.

You forgot a few - snooker or Polo or whatever. They're good at moaning too.

That said it'll be like cricket if my memory serves me correctly if it's Aussies and Kiwis again.
 
Looked pretty close between the Argies and Aussies when I left...anyone following?

Okay I guess I left at the right time. Was up in a pub because my work mate didn't have cash and brought me to some cash only dive. Went upstairs for the bank machine, smells like bleach and last night's bar and see one solitary Aussie staring at the screen. We ask him where the cash machine is, can't tell us. We ask him whether it's okay to park on the street, can't tell us. Then he went back to his game.
 
Better team on the day... Dan Carter is a freak glad he won't be part of next years All Blacks.
