As somebody mentioned before....Make teams want to run with the ball more by either increasing the number of points for a try or reducing the number for penalties. It really is very easy.
As for scrums, its not really a problem in the amateur game, so why not stop the clock in all top...
Are people as interested in rugby as they once were in NZ? Living there two years ago made me think that although there is interest in the national team, there isnt the same number of players coming through. With only a small population this will surely effect their quality?
Well that was emphatic. Think Namibia may do better at the RWC this time round than they have done in the past....will still lose every game though.
Uruguay to win repechage?
That red card was absolute nonsense! What is the point in having TMO's if they are going to make the wrong call?
We see the same thing with Italy when they are playing a more established nation. Refs are so scared to referee an "upset" in case they get blamed, that they make ridiculous calls...
From watching the USA in their last two matches, I feel they could really use with finding themselves a new scrum-half. His distribution from the base of rucks seemed to be very slow, but hey im no expert on such things.
The USA will have to go some if they want to give the All Blacks at least...
Not quite sure where the guy got Ukraine from as an up and coming rugby force, but I do think both Georgia and Romania deserve a shot at playing at the top table . Perhaps the thing to do would be to promote the second tier more(6 nations B) I.e. show the highlights of the games during the 6...
Is League genuinely growing...not just in England, but around the world? I mean there is barely any mention of it outside of the north of England and in Oz/Nz. However, when you put in something like "French rugby growth" into the internet it's all about League. Would be very interested to see a...
I never understand why the smaller sides ever bother to take 3 points against NZ or South Africa. Surely, if you play against NZ, you have to assume that they are going to score a minimum of 3 tries against you and therefore you can't waste rare attacking opportunities by only taking 3 points at...
God I hate the Springboks....
1.They always get huge slices of undeserved luck.
2.They continually lie about opponents brutality.
3.Their commentators suck.
4.Grrrrrr
How nice it is to see Quade Cooper back in a Wallabies squad. Move James O'Connor out to the wing where he is best and plonk Quade back in his rightful position.
Much looking forward to their visit Torino visit in November :)
Looking forward to us having another crack at the Australians after we pushed them so close last time around in Firenze. The game with Argentina should(Fingers crossed) be a good one both in terms of the match and the atmosphere. I would say both teams these days....certainly since Brunel came...
