Come on the Bhoys!!!

Well there is actually 20 teams.

Ever heard of the 'world series' in which a total of ONE country competes!

The poor toronto blue jays are forgotten...  canada has teams in the nba and mlb

Tomorrow is supposed to be a nice one (All Blacks vs France)

Any bets on that?

I believe the difference in points will be less than 7 points. (whoever wins)

Argentina 13 - Scotland 12

Man, I have no fingers left! Scotland really deserved a win here and they indeed were walking with it 8 minutes to go, but Los Pumas got away with it with hard defence and strong heart to overcome the injuries of two of the best players.. Amorosino's try felt like it was from other game.
I'm sorry for any Scot here but I'm so happy!

Only a week left for the RWC! The finalists are N. Zealand and France. The match for the third place will be played between Australia and Wales.

The All Blacks made an impressive effort to shut down any Australian hope for an upset. And France, despite showing lots of doubts in their match against the 14-man Dragons, had the touche-de-grâce that every past champion had and are undoubtedly up for the finals.
I want to say that I was with the Springbocks in this one after my team lost to AB, but well....
Can't wait to the matches already!

I will eat my airline if the All Blacks don't win this year. The Aussies are a better team than the French and the All Blacks decimated them. In my head it should be a Wales-NZ final.

Lol I agree. The RWC is theirs to lose, although the French are specialists in the art of the unexpected. And Wales was the one who deserved the win but rest assure that they have a team for the future.

For sure France is unexpected in this final. However, they played well enough when they had to (although well enough doesn't mean well).

So they have a chance to win the RWC, and so has NZ. 18 other teams wannot say the same.

These games are not only a question of skills, but of adaptation and evolution. The SpringBoks were in a similar situation when they hosted the RWC for the first time !

No matter who wins, they deserve it !
