Rugby World Cup
- Thread starter kayos
- Start date
Well we got out muscled by the Boks yesterday, but at least we are still in the competition, bring on Samoa.
Bye bye England, out in the pool stages and gubbed by Australia!
we didn't have a look in, too slow to the breakdowns, Pocock and Hooper had a field day and England clueless in the backs, until Ford (who I don't rate but he did well) came on, front row unbelievably poor, if the Japanese can get it technically right why can't seasoned? players like England's not do the same, and the penalties again, the same thing over and over, well they only had four years to prepare for the tournament. Sorry Kayos but I hope Samoa beat Scotland, I want the Japanese to get through, you where lucky to play an absolutely knackered Japan team.

Dear, dear Alan. Is it any wonder we Scots have a hard time liking you lot South of the border? You want Japan to get through at the expense of a home nation and spouting sour grapes at a Scotland 5 try thumping of Japan and USA. Dream on that England score 5 tries in a match!!
Scotland and every other team in the competition had at least one 4/5 day turnaround, bar you lot, plus home ties in all four games and you still got hammered!

that's what it was they had gone to sleep with such a long lay off, will be routing for the Scots don't worry about that, said at the beginning England would be hard pressed to get out of the pool stages, team and tactics all wrong, ball up the jumper trundle trundle went out years ago

It matters!
As for the Euros, Scotland are pathetic at football, I mean Steven Fletcher is their main striker, give me a break!!

Presuming we beat Samoa and we get through in 2nd place and play Australia, it will be goodnight Scotland. If we get Wales, we have a chance!

No It really doesn't...Nobody remembers the runners up..Nevermind semi or quarter finalists, Neither England or Scotland are a patch on the Australasian Teams and never will be imo

I didn't say it mattered "so" much and I could name the whole team mate, in fact the entire squad, so just leave it there, or send me your pretty penny!

I wish I had £715 spare! Going for a week to Budapest for less, including the spending money!
On second thoughts, even if I had £715 to spare, I wouldn't spend it on a rugby match, or any other match for that matter.

Probably only chance i will get, to be honest Scotland have been good at doing the simple things, they have looked good in the scrum and been good at controlling the pace. Think they might of sneaked through in England's group.

Obviously it does matter so much or why make a thread about it lol...With a little help from Google like I said 
And the fact remains that England are still a better Rugby team and Scoland haven't beaten England for 7 years and only won about 3 of the last 20+ head to heads..Say no more as the stats don't lie

Zzzzzzzzz.going to be close but I think you will just do it, yep keep well away from the Aussies with Hooper and Pocock at least you have an open side that can compete with them, not three donkeys.

I don't remember that far back. Perhaps you are doing what you accused me of and googling it!
