Rugby's greatest rivals

[lucky number 7]

I don't consider making hate speech talking out of his arse...

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

You don't know him he doesn't think like that at all

 

[lucky number 7]

Yet he puts it in writing?

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Out his arse as I said, he thinks it's ok to put it on the Internet whereas most people would think opposite. I'm not trying to defend it, it was stupid and made him look like a twat

I think it very strange that Wales v England isn't included in the poll. Arguably that is the biggest rivalry in world rugby. I've been to many Wales matches and nothing compares to Wales v England, the atmosphere is incredible and both countries are so desperate to get one over on each other but there is also massive respect between us. I was at the Millennium Stadium this year watching us play the English and I was so devastated by the result (being surrounded by smug English fans waving their hands up and down for Wilkinson made it all the worse) that it did ruin my night as I went home instead of spending the night in Cardiff as I had planned to do. That is how much it means to me as and that is how much it means to every Welsh fan. Wales v England - unrivalled passion and unrivalled intensity, imo.

This should be a vote for the biggest rivalry in your country poll. Everyone thinks the biggest rivalry is their country vs England in Nh and their country v NZ in SH etc...
A more interesting topic is club rivalry where it would im the NH be one of the french ones perpignan v Biaritz maybe not sure

 

[YesImAfroJack]

club rivalries still will depend on the region of the poster , being ospreys supporter myself i will always argue the ospreys vs scarlets

 

[Leonormous Boozer]

Fair enough just close the thread all together then

 

[TRF_stormer2010]

Still can't believe people thing England vs *anyone else* is a bigger rivalry than England vs Wales

Maybe Ireland care a lot about playing England, but for England -> Wales is the team to beat.

One would think you'd aim a bit higher.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

We, in England, care not for the commoners south of the equator.

Unfortunately good days are about as common as the Woodstock Festival :\

 

[YesImAfroJack]

and most other years too , but we have been off form for a while :/ seems the players just don't want to win anymore .

 

[TRF_Cymro]

Jog on.

 

[MichaelBoard]

Jog on.

Haha couldn't of put it better myself, I'd love nothing more than for us in Wales to have one of our good dyas which aren't so common according to him and we beat the Boks in the group stages.

Final thought : When the New Zealand Herlad journalist Andrew Austin was asked to comment on the rivalry between the All blacks and Wallabies he said : "The old enemy wears green and gold not just gold"

Let me resurrect an old thread.

South Africa vs New Zealand
England vs France

Those two for me.
