Go Springboks!!!
My Schools hosting a few of the teams (Wales, Ireland and I think Russia).
I can't wait till it starts up. Personally I know it isn't something wanted (definitely here) but I want a NZ and Ausie final :p.
It is absolutely awesome to watch these two teams go at each others throats lol
Go the ABS :P it will be a hell of a world cup this year, and i should be able to goto a few of the games, the aussies are looking good though, so old Henry better step his game up and shape up that team, was almost embarrassing in that try nations game
I see the try nations as our lucky break. Our Attack was so sharp and yet the Ausies showed us how fragile it was. I mean a few spot tackles and it threw us into a mess so bad that, in the end it lost us the final game :P
We're lucky in the sense that Henry gets a chance to fix things before the world cup. When this starts, we should see the men in black at there finest.
I have high hopes that the Springboks will win this one aswell. :) the farewell yesterday to see them off was huge lol. It kicked up more people than the whole soccer world cup.
I have high hopes that england might do well!!! Unfortunately, those will probably have to remain as "hopes"...
Though they did make the last two finals, if I remember rightly?
I'm in NZ. The rugby world cup is here already? I never knew xd
Just incase your reading this and don't catch on, I'm just being a ******.
Personally I can't wait, I wanna see us beat Aussie, we got wasted on the last tri-nations game.
I'ts gonna be fun watching the Sprinboks and All-Blacks take each other on again. Last world cup final was a GREAT game.
Moved to entertainment =)
I thought I should make it here but the again I thought this was only for movies,music and stuff...
Grito I already started a thread for this in entertainment
3 more days till the wrc starts!sorry didnt see i typed wrong number lol!
oop my bad didnt see it:p how do I delete/lock thread?
You can't but ask a moderator to do it.
weird threads merged lol.
Anyways... im predicting:
Pool A winner: New Zealand Runner up: France
Pool B winner: England Runner up: Scotland
Pool C winner: Australia Runner up: Ireland
Pool D winner: South Africa Runner up (hard one to pick): Wales?
Hbu?
I thinkthe same :) though I do hope we make the finals again :D
Looking through the History books it seems that both times the South African team has won the Webb Ellis cup they have not scored a try. interesting fact:)
Haha im so hoping that New Zealand makes the finals, that would bring the biggest turnout of supporters
Lol yes it would be a very awesome finals I just wish I can watch it live S.Africans live and breathe rugby lol :)
Aren't you coming over the ditch? lol. Well if I can rally my bank out then I may be able to afford a quater or a semi lol
nope can't fly over there way to exspensive if it ever gets hosted in S.A I'll be the first one to buy a ticket ;) lol
Haha that wont be for a while then.
GAME TIME!! GAME TIME!! GAME TIME!!
Had Ireland Team training on our school fields today so it's sinking in!!
Wohoo NZ won 41-10
scrappy & sloppy game though, the Tongans put up a brilliant fight in the second half:) However with fast hands of SBW and the pace of Israel Dagg us Kiwis had it in the bag!
Awesome Kingale: Get any autographs?? haha
good game last night =-p
Australia 6 Ireland 15
the pub i was at was an irish one... few ozzys walked in b4 the game with all big talk... yip and 1st to leave.
WOOHOO happy S.A picked up their game Springboks 87-0 Namibia
I'm hoping that with our win over Australia, we have a good chance of making the semis now. Italy won't be a pushover though. They gave us a bit of a scare in the Six Nations and actually beat France in it.
Really, I'm just loving how all the non-NZrs party. Viaduct + Party Central = A very great time.
Wohoo! you in Auckland simi?
Down in Palmy we had a great ol' time with the buckets supporting Georgia and Romania:)
Pumped for the New Zealand v Canada in the cake tin:D
Yeap I'm in Auckland. Went to the opening ceremony in town, got absolutely plastered.
My family are heading down to Palmy tonight, for the weekend, they're going to the Argentina/Georgia game.
I wish I had the time to watch more games... They always happen when I'm busy doing something more pressing.
When's the New Zealand- Canada game?
Go Ireland.
'Nuff said.
I've never played rugby, but I love watching it. It seems like an extreme sport and I wish I lived in a city that played rugby :)
lol yeah rugby is hardcore i wish i played
Nice win over Italy. (36 - 6) I thought Tommy Bowe should have had two tries; the first one where he juggled with the ball wasn't forward (but to be fair it looked forward in real time) and the TMO judged that he wasn't impeded when he nearly ran the length of the pitch near the end. Not that it mattered in the end, but I thought he deserved one. Anyway, bring on Wales!
Predictions for Quarter Finals:
Ireland
..............-Ireland
Wales
England
...............-England
France
South Africa
.................- South Africa
Australia
New Zealand
...................-New Zealand
Argentina
Yes that was a good win by ireland
And I hope your right about those odds richie:)
I didn't end up watching the Ireland/Italy game because the league was on the other channel (which was a was stupid because my team lost the grandfinals)
Should have just watched it lol. Good ole Ireland eh!
