konig 1,298 Posted September 30, 2023 #73 Share Posted September 30, 2023 What are you doing Fiji? .......... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rafalgorka 1,383 Posted September 30, 2023 #74 Share Posted September 30, 2023 (edited) That was a tough one for Fiji. Glad they’ve won but TV here says a penalty before the kick for 10-9 was not correct. And this moment was gamechanger. anyway, looks like Flying Fijians will go to QFs!!!

Don't think it will be - I think it's VERY likely we're going to some form of 24 team world cup, possibly with plate and shield competitions And the extra 4 places, I think Americas get 2, Africa and Asia get 1/2 each and probably Europe gets 1 I honestly think world rugby would be VERY keen, prior to the first World Cup in the Americas to get as many Americas teams as possible - Arg, Uru, Chi, USA and Can konig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thagard 39 Posted October 3, 2023 #76 Share Posted October 3, 2023 May 30th 1995: South Africa - Romania 21-8 (Pool A) Even though a loss, this is the closest result of Romania with the rugby union giants. I could only hope sometime in the future we could get there again. This generation is compromised.... konig and NearPup 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

U20 Championship 2022 : 5th/8 with a loss to Belgium 18-6, wins against Czechia 33-10 and Poland 34-9. U18 Championship 2022 : 8th/8 with losses to Spain 102-0 (no typo here), Germany 27-17 and Czechia 10-8. And their exposition to pro rugby will be way less than what used to be for Romanian players back in the days, like, just a decade back. Foreign(French)-based Romanian players in RWC squads : 1st tier 2nd tier 3rd tier 4th tier 5th tier Total 2011 4 2 3 0 1 10/31 2015 5 6 0 0 0 11/31 2023 0 4 3 2 1 10/33 Thagard 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hckošice 13,267 Posted October 7, 2023 #79 Share Posted October 7, 2023 I see England is doing everything they can to lose this match failing to kick the penalty shot in time is the latest component Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hckošice 13,267 Posted October 7, 2023 #80 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Fun game this was In the end was rooting for Samoa, sadly no history for them tonight, well done to England, winning a WC match while playing at some 30% is quite impressive konig 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
