@Canes4life we need more footage like that! Well done spider cameraman
Where's it from?
-
@Machpants If you look closely it's actually animated slightly. Pretty cool though.
It came from the RWC Facebook page.
-
@Canes4life ah it looks about 240p on the iPad so really hard to see, I was trying to find somewhere to watch it properly
-
A really interesting video on how many foreign born players are in each squad at RWC.
here is a screengrab showing the total number of players born in a country that are representing another country at RWC. Shows just how many players the NZ conveyor belt produces.

@Canes4life there'll be another video " exposing " moody blocking ptsd in 5, 4 3 2 1 .....

Do you swap out an eagle for another giraffe when Jordie is playing?

I am offended by the flankers and halfback. Sickening

Yeah. One of the flankers should have been a Puma or Panther.

@MiketheSnow
Jackal surely. Or a wolf for the size. -

The halfback, looks like one of those monkeys with a shiny red bum. Seems fine to me:face_with_stuck-out_tongue_winking_eye:

It's called a baboon mate, the ones that look like they have a prolapsed anus. I'm not sure a baboon is the right animal. HBs are generally quite small, yap a lot and are often a pain in the arse. Chihuahua? Or a Jack Russell terrier

There has been a bit of chat here and on social media about the turnaround time for Fiji affecting their performance against Uruguay. I did the quick figures (I sit to be corrected) based on the 3 intervals:

4-day (13): Argentina, England, Fiji, France, Georgia, Italy, New Zealand, Russia, Scotland, South Africa, Uruguay, USA, Wales

Could really say the Wallabies have the best draw with minimum 6 day turnaround, maximum 8, and average 7.

Good to see World Rugby following through on their promise not to see the minnows disadvantaged....
