Rugby World Cup 2023

He's lucky that was unintentional... Tackling a player off his feet is a straight red.

For sure. But I genuinely think it was unintentional

 

[Wizard]

I think so. Usually the NZ team dominate the last 10 minutes of matches, I don't see it happening now.

I was at the semi final in 2019 when we beat them and I was a nervous wreck for that very reason. You know that usually they will come at you in the last 10. It took until about this stage in the game when I calmed down a bit. Something mental would have to happen for them to win now.

all about the bass bounce

hot stuff that, NZ lost their mind...

As I post that it’s done and dusted

 

[Tommy Chong]

Mon dieu! France score again!

Lights out. How good have France been? With the home crowd they have to be favourites alongside South Africa.

epic poor defending. bottle gone.

Brilliant. Apart from them being slow out the blocks at the start of each half they’ve bossed it. Fully deserved win

 

[Hinchcliffe's Corner]

That's an absolute hiding for NZ.

 

[Tommy Chong]

After the first match, you can usually tell if a team has 'brought it'.

I don't think that NZ have 'brought it' this time around.

They just got served!

 

[Rita_Poon]

The precise quick stuff and engaging play came from NZ. Discipline an issue. France big and heavy enough to grind sides down. Can they keep their best fit for the full tournament.

That'll be a weight off France now, they looked terrified for about 20 mins. Not a pretty game, ball spent most of the game in the air.

NZ looked aimless.

 

[Tommy Chong]

Makes the Haka performed before the match look even more ridiculous now after that bumming!

Just saying....

That's an absolute hiding for NZ.

40 - love mate... No reply!

 

[Wizard]

As has been mentioned a few times the way the draw is sucks for either of them. Come first or second and you’re likely playing Ireland or South Africa

 

[sbbefc]

France mostly dominated and look good for the championship. Nz in it for two bits of play and looked crap.
