Great to see Scotland command that win. And, defense optional in this comp? Super rugby in action!
Shambles, yes, but I'm not sure another coach is the answer for England. SA are another class
Yeah, England have a soft underbelly that was exposed in the 6n. Rassie will take no prisoners
France tear apart all teams with their unstructured form, they are wonderful to watch. And Japan currently leading Italy by 7, so another cracker in the making there
3 minutes to go, and I don't write off France!
HT in NZ and what a half so far. I can't call a winner here, such attacking shapes we have!
I'm gonna predict:
Italy by 10
Ireland by 8
Fiji by 6
SA by 14
Scotland by 4
In the pub for the last match, how many minutes of rugby can I watch today?
(end your newline with a backslash to see it, two new lines is a new paragraph)
It is here. Long talked about, semi-enthusiastically embraced, and definitely not a cash grab. The not world cup is here in non-lions, non-world-cup years for the first time with the winner getting not even a trophy! A replacement for the summer and autumn tests (as the NH call things), and formalising what teams were already doing, now with a finals weekend in London. I do fancy heading down myself, I like the idea of a weekend of north vs south in Twickenham.
So lots of matches to kick things off, a long day of rugby if you want! And they honestly all looking a cracking fixture. Will an ascendant Italy take on Jones' Japan? Will Wales scrape a win vs underfunded Fiji? Will stuttering Ireland bash the underperforming Wallabies? NZ vs France. South Africa wanting to smash the English. And Argentina wanting to cement their smash and grab from last year against Scotland
That's 14 hours of rugby, and all should be top quality. As always, predictions before, reactions during, and analysis after all very welcome, and shit-posts and pitch shots very much saught
Happy international rugby eve!
Wonderland models in Edinburgh are talking of moving. But the boy that owns it is getting on. Fair chance it closes shop, so here's hoping a purchase persuades them to keep going!
Yup, as there will be more great games made yet
Yup, the lesser of three evils though. I probably won't buy any of the next gen at this stage though. Can't see any game on the horizon being worth an upgrade
Mass Effect 5 though...
And yet, I still won't buy a console without a drive. MS and Sony can fuck off if they think I'll buy a console from them without a disc drive. I'd much sooner buy from Gabe, who is a DRM whore, but at least has open hardware
Yup, Gabe did it first. DRM is not your friend

Is defence going out of fashion? 'The trick now is how quickly you stop the bleeding'
