Official Rugby World Cup 2011 Thread
 

Opening ceremonies this weekend. Going to be a real ball-busting competition.

Since New Zealand is the hosting country, I'm betting on the All Blacks to win even though I'm rooting for the USA.:thumbsup

I was in NZ in May and I know the Kiwis are all pumped up.

New Zealand is a nice place

1-Kiwis
2-All Blacks
3-Los Pumas

USA=zero chance...

The All Blacks are the New Zealand team.

Not many rugby fans on GFY is guess.

I guess most webmasters would rather sip wine, eat quiche and watch arena football.:1orglaugh

I've played for over 10+ years and will be watching.

Kiwis are the All Blacks :error

USA vs. Ireland, NBC, Sunday 1pm EST.

Fiji just beat Nambia 49 to 25 in a great opening match match.

Now watching a streaming match from earlier this evening between Scotland and Romania. Should be good. Playing in Ivancargill on the South Island of New Zealand. They have a great still maker there......world class still. Nice town to visit.

One thing the Kiwi's have always shown in the WC, they get bad stage fright! Australia played all over them in the last match they played and I am backing the Aussies to do it again this WC.

New Zealand is a Rugby MAD country and I would be happy to see them win it but I just think they put far to much pressure on themselves!

Scotland just scrape a win against Romania.

That could have been embarrassing...

Awesome opening ceremony for the 2011 Rugby World Cup loaded with special effects...:thumbsup

Kind of impossible to beat the All Blacks on home turf.

New Zeland
 

New Zeland all the way... Aussies only team who can stop them... Would love to say England have a chance but I'd be lying !!!

USa vs Ireland starting now on NBC.:thumbsup

I have not been following - but the South Africans often give NZ a run for their money....

Redrob> Are you sure you are talking about Invercargil, the place is a shithole....

Dunedin will be the place for rugby heads, the town will shut down, the only thing open will be the sports bars.
