RWC: Wales v Uruguay (Pool D)
-
Fuck it, wish these smaller teams would gamble more.

I would open to another super rugby side based in Argentina combining some Argo-Uruguayan talent. By far the most impressive of the minnows in this RWC.

I really like Uruguay as a side. Makes me wish the Nation's Cup had got off the ground, would have liked to see how they would go in a tier 2 competition.
You can blame that on the likes of Scotland and Italy. Too scared they might get relegated.

Too right. I know we would rather face japan or Scotland but I hope japan slaughter the Scots. The most self-serving nation in world rugby.

Wales don't have a lot of world class players outside their usual starting XV. The All Blacks' reserve team would beat this one by a canter.
None of the Welsh players out on the park tonight would make the Crusaders. Maybe the Chiefs though
-
@ACT-Crusader Parkes would make the Blues or Canes.
-
@Stargazer Before financial problems curtailed Namibia's involvement in the equivalent of the Heartland Championship in Sth Africa a couple of years ago the best they had ever done was either second or third. They would get absolutely murdered (worse than the Kings if it is possible - you would probably rate them at about the level of the Kings Development Squad) if they were in Super Rugby.

@chimoaus post - and my reply to it - was about a second tier Nations Championship (so basically a 2nd tier to the TRC), not about Super Rugby.

I've just turned this game on, WTF??? I know Uruguay are improving and all, but they are versing ( ) the very-recently-#1-team-in-the-world!!!
This would be a wonderful boil-over
It isn't going to happen, Wales have been pretty dominant, just can't quite get over the line. They will soon.
