Do the rugby fans wandering in here have any forecast about the Rugby World Cup winner ?

Personally, I'm for France

What exactly are the rules and objectives of 'rugby' anyhow?
I know there's some kind of amerikan football shaped ball and full contact but how does one play?

Everything you need to know about the tournament.
Rugby union rules

All I know is that Wales made it through to the quarters.
They're gonna get stuffed from here on in, but they've restored my faith in the short term.

Go Wales!

Afaik the main difference between rugby and american football is that in rugby, physical contact and movement annoyance are only authorized on the ball holder.

I'm with England!! They the currently world's no.1

Mexican waves are banned, waltzing matilda is banned, then the scottish bagpipe presentation is too, just because they thought it'll be unfair for others. Australians are really fair.

Glad my Eagles wona game. I have not been able to watch any of the games. We only lost to Fiji by one point (19-18) and help strongly against Scotland (39-15). and of course beat Japan


Not too shabby for a country that doesnt even realize a rygby world cup is going on. we will only get better!

Seems to me that American Football has a Rugby shaped ball!

Other countries would be pleasantly surprised how passionate rugby is played in the States. Not with all the hype other sports like basketball and football get. Rugby has maintained the core roots sert in Europe. Believe me.

Go Eagles.
