True might have to make adjustment if I have a bad week 1

I want to see some Tier 2 success, good matches ,some good storylines to follow throughout the Rugby World Cup and a new name on the trophy

I’m gonna be bolder and take some risk but not be unrealistic

A video from a year ago but better explains that by expanding and creating better competition between tier 1 & tier 2 nations it improves the game and will help continue to grow Rugby.

Yes France v New Zealand is the Rugby World Cup opener. I think it is badly worded and meant Wales’ first pool game vs Fiji

[–] 8ohighdef 1 points 1 year ago

That’s a good point, I wonder if they extended the matches but that could cause disruption to the host country. It’s tough call and I’m glad I’m not the one who has to make that decision.

Yes in my opinion I believe it is but who knows for sure. Also as a history lover I believe there are a lot of things that relate back to the aftermath of colonialism.

This a 1:1 remaster of Tranzit and is made by a different team then Verko’s team who are working on a reimagined Tranzit

History of RWC Finals and some statistics

France made 3 x RWC finals without winning.
England made 4 x RWC finals with 1 win.
Australia made 4 x RWC finals with 2 wins.
NZ made 4 x RWC finals with 3 wins.
South Africa 3 x RWC finals with 3 wins.

Three nations have reached a Rugby World Cup Final having previously lost a game in that tournament: England in 1991 and 2007, South Africa in 2019, and France in 2011, the latter being the only team to reach the final having lost two games and South Africa being the only team who won the cup after losing one game

Statistics and numbers can only tell us so much and can be proven wrong. Do we conclude then that if France make the final this RWC, this is their statistically best chance? Do we conclude that if SA make a final they are invincible? Are England/Australia the teams on that side of the draw most likely to make the final but lose?What do you conclude from these facts and statics ? What are your predictions ?

How do we as zombies fan feel about this? Will you give it try or will you wait until Treyarch zombies in COD 2024?
