The Rugby Championship 2012

I knew nothing about rugby 2 weeks ago. I looked into it because we’ve got a few rugby players around here. So I looked up the rules, and watched some videos on youtube.

I’ve found it a surprisingly enjoyable sport to watch. If you’ve never watched a high-level game, it’s definitely worth checking out.

I have no personal stake in any of the teams, but “The Rugby Championship” just started up Saturday. 4 southern hemisphere countries: Argentina vs South Africa vs New Zealand vs Australia.

Is anyone else following this?

Here’s the first round:

i am a springbok supporter but with the national coach’s latest selection policy i hope they get an ass whooping so we can get some direction

What do you mean? I’m completely unfamiliar with that… I just like watching them play.

Should be renamed ‘the snorefest championship’.

just be thankful you’re not a ireland fan :frowning: our national coach as his head firmly up his arse when it comes to selection policies

Kiwis to walk it,they’re a step above everyone else

Agree with Kiwis to walk it. Argentina will be like Italy in the 6 nations - will take them a few years to start winning games but I’ll do lots for the countries game.
