Love to go to Fra for this Cup, would be awesome.
I went to the 2007 RWC, and it wasn't cheap back then despite being able to base myself in Italy when not travelling around Europe between games.
USA next, right, where after that?
Australia in 2027, then USA.
Ah cool, don't fancy USA anywhere as much as france, but at least it'll be cheap as RWC won't make a dent on most places accom etc

The ABs will be based in Lyon.
Team base camps revealed combining world-class facilities and community engagement ｜ Rugby World Cup 2023
Team preparations for Rugby World Cup 2023 in France have marked a major milestone with each qualified team selecting their Team Base Camp, their home away from home during the pool phase.
Love to go to Fra for this Cup, would be awesome. USA next, right, where after that? That will be in retirement time!
gee is that Aix-les-Bain? Healing waters and all that. Looks pretty sweet for Namibia (which evokes Mad Max: Fury road images for me by comparision).

I like that England has been located for a quick exit. From Lille they could finish a game, hop on the bus and be back home licking their wounds quite quickly.
Lille whites huh? I sense a sponsorship opportunity https://www.lillywhites.com/

@booboo Saturday morning, NZ time.
I assume the Portugal v USA game will be streamed on The Rugby Network like the previous matches.
Just for info, Portugal v USA is 18 v 19 on the rankings.
Be close.
Having said that, Hong Kong v Kenya is 24 v 34.

Portugal are going to the RWC!!
The game between the USA and Portugal ended in a 16 all draw, but Portugal goes through on a better points differential.
An exciting game to watch, with so much at stake. Portugal deserved the win with much more entreprising, positive rugby. The USA looked nervous and scared for most the game and were way too passive, except maybe in the final quarter.
Portugal were leading until the USA scored a try in the 60th minute. They scored a penalty in the 80th minute to get the draw.

@Stargazer I swear Wales Fiji Australia is the same pool every single world cup...

An A vs D and B vs C crossover for the quarters would have so much more credibility..
They really cocked up the draw this time didn't they, as teams don't go to the other side? In other words, we can't have the two best teams from the same pool meet in the final, or did I get that wrong?

You can as there’s a crossover in the semifinals. A NZ v FRA final is possible
