Fijians players crying during the anthem, so much passion
Big hits, tough contest, video refs that compliment the game not ruin it, a genuine fair tournament not manipulated with fake rules made on the run like other comps.
This is what sport should be! Take note AFL, FIFA, ICC
Last time I watched international RU it was riddled with penalties. The score was something like 27-21 and I think there was only one try scored. Has this changed?
Yeah super rugby introduced the bonus point system for scoring tries which saw that comp really open up, that has fed through to international rugby.
In saying that the beauty to rugby is watching different styles and how the game evolves a bit like a good boxing fight.
The old Johnny Wilkinson English team wouldn’t survive in this day and age with the athleticism of the modern day forwards.
