The only rugby worth watching really, the full international stuff is other level. Some of the European club possibly ok, but this Springbok team play different gravy stuff. But England still leading. (Just, TMO about to get involved) France v All Black's later, which is usually an absolute classic.
87th minute penalty for Turkey. Looks a great tackle. VAR will inevitably do nothing. He’s stuck it wide anyway. Awful refereeing and VARing.
It’s a friendly but we’ll call it an ‘Autumn International’ which makes it suddenly important. ****ers.
Sounds ****, true. But it's genuinely a mini tournament with no actual winner between the six nations and such like. Think Nations League, but actual genuine quality, and not the ****e football serves up. As much as rugby is meh, these games are in the middle of the season when the players are peak ish. Mainly **** though, true enough.
Heard your local is doing half-priced pints for anyone in **** jeans and brown shoes to make it feel like you’re at the match.
Big fan of the guy letting a flare go in the away end because he’s not confident he’ll have a chance to use it during the game. Good to hear the traditional booing of the anthem too.
