[RWC2023] France vs Uruguay (14/09/2023)

[Lé Ddanno]

Oh he's still a winger as well heh.

 

[AlRums]

That lad in the Land Rover promos does as well, even though he probably isn't old enough to play contact yet.

If you mean the Japanese then certain members here wanted to know if he was Eng qualified

 

[TRF_Olyy]

You're not allowed to kick the ball out of a ruck are you?

 

[Which Tyler]

5 points whilst playing badly.
Churlish to complain, but **** me France have made hard work of this.

ETA, ... maybe not.

 

[AlRums]

True, would love to have a proper international series with NA
Imagine a 4yr event like a regional WC, with Arg, Uru, Chile, USA, Canada.
Maybe a 3rd Arg team in SRA will be added and bring back a Colombian team.

Well they seem to have a Pan American for every other sport

 

[IT157]

And there is the bonus point for France. Scoreline flatters France. Should have been down to 14 men early in the game.

Credit to Uruguay. I'm sure they gained some new fans.

 

[Which Tyler]

I know we joke but how do Uruguay have much better running lines than England, like millions better.

Because they sometimes use rugby balls whilst training?
Not just weights

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Christ their lineouts are painful to watch

 

[Don't Skip Leg Day]

You're not allowed to kick the ball out of a ruck are you?

Nope. You can rake it back but not kick it through.

 

[IT157]

Shouldn't count as it was kicked through the ruck btw.

 

[AlRums]

I know we joke but how do Uruguay have much better running lines than England, like millions better.

Their no 14 is a brilliant runner

 

[Bluemoon]

You're not allowed to kick the ball out of a ruck are you?

I wish the pundits knew the laws too. D'arcy questioning an obvious decision!

 

[saulan]

Agree. That's really embarrassing from a commentator and deserves getting yanked for it.

 

[IT157]

Okay. Disallowed. The right call! Thank God!

 

[Which Tyler]

Agree. That's really embarrassing from a commentator and deserves getting yanked for it.

And to think I got called out for worrying my dog

 

[Lé Ddanno]

Christ their lineouts are painful to watch

Yeah, reminds me of another team

 

[spursindevon]

Italy vs Uruguay is going to be a great game

 

[Summer Rose]

Uruguay's lineouts have been painful to watch.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Yeah, reminds me of another team

England?
We literally have the best lineout in the tournament so far (RWC account posted the stats earlier today)

 

[Summer Rose]

Christ their lineouts are painful to watch

Jinx.
