Cheers, my pleasure.



Robbinho good point --

I'm leaving the Venue, Match Length, and level of difficulty up to each individual.

That way, we will probably have a lot of different weather conditions, venues, and more importantly, score lines. Also, if people are playing in different grounds, they might notice different chants, different commentator phrases -- it offers a chance of variety.

So, do what you want, just let us know.

ENG v. FRA, Twickenham

...swing low....
Nice one. You might very well hear 'Swing Lo.'

Good stuff everybody, keep 'em coming.
 
Blues vs canterbury (aka poofville by aucklanders
<
) and of course, im the blues at eden park
 
I have changed my preference of my first match to AUS v NZ @ Canberra
(last one was Brumbies and Tahs at Telstra)

I know what you mean.

I'm slowly beginning to pound my head at my USA v Canada choice. But, I'm gonna stick to it cause it's only the first match and I'll be getting quite a few things wrong (much like the US play anyway).

Anyway, drop a post if you want to change from what you've got now.
 
Well, it's feasible that the game might be coming out tomorrow in the UK. Honestly, I don't think anyone knows 100% for certain as dates have been shot all over the calendar.

So, when someone does get the game, and they care to tell us how their very first match went, go ahead and start a new thread and give us all the details if possible:

Venue:
Weather:
Day/Night:
Match Length:
Difficulty:

You:
CPU:

As well as an account of your game with half-time and full time score.

This should make for some entertaining reads as we've got a great variety of matches 'scheduled' so we might very well hear different chants, different commentary soundbites, etc, etc, etc -- plus all the crazy stuff that happens in the match itself.

I know I'm looking forward to getting my ass handed to me on hard mode.
