The funny thing is South Africa should be full of black men and France should be full of white men on the teams.My grandfather is going to be so confused watching tonight.
>>158595784Blacks arent made for strenght, if you look at powerlifting/strongman there very few blacksThey have blacks wingers, which black have genetics for
Just over an hour to go.
any streams?god rugby is so fucking dead nowadays, there's like zero interest for this meme competition
>>158596251Yeah its fucking dead its a shame, thet just take one shit decision after another honestly its doing good with how shit its runRugbybox(dot)meVipbox but i dont know what the current one is called
Scotland stands with France
>>158596251WRU had to lower ticket prices for the AB's game to £20 because they weren't selling. I've never seen a NZ game not sell out in weeks in Cardiff. Rugby will die in Wales over the next 10 years, although it may as well be dead right now.
they've fucking killed rugby here..
>>158596393It's going to be hilarious when the WRU cut Ospreys/Scarlets and it makes fuck all difference to crowds. I swear they seem to think one set of fans will magically start supporting the other region and they'll be getting 10k fans every week.
>>158596251>there's like zero interest for this meme competitionWonder if they'll renew it desu. Especially with countries like France started to pile up on injured players
>>158596393At least the women are more supported now so its double plus good!
>>158596434>At least the women are more supported nowBra...
>>158596251It’s on ITV1 ffs just turn on the tv
I remember when i was travelling in New Zealand and saw this in Auckland museum. I thought rugby would never die in Wales. Sad times.

>>158596912A true connoisseur
>>158596662They've met 5 times in Paris since France won in 05
>>158596951It’s just the rules
>>158596912I kneel. It was the best
>>158596951The true meta we've yet to develop is purposefully aiming for the head of a teammate to throw off the opposition's defence.
>>158596954See that’s not great but it doesn’t sound as bad as >le haven’t won against them in paris in over two decadesit’s misleading at best
lmao state of that pitch
>>158596925Those are acceptable, the one tactic I can't stomach is teams deliberately slow game down by taking breaks - some player decide to take a lie down and team physio and water boys get on field. Fuck off with that shit
if france win you better believe I'm going to wind up south africans online saying dupont ripped you to shreds
Fix your grass, Frenchies
>>158596973Rugby league send you off for 15 minutes for a head injury assessment and get on with it. You get an interchange player on. It won’t work in union

Absolute madmen
French flair, mes enfants.
It's going to kill South Africans to admit Dupont played well.
>>158597032He’s better than any South African that’s ever played the game
saffas shook
I'm tired of this republic anthem, we need a france anthem
>front row change at 34 minuteslol rassie is such a hack
What happened to the fairness of sports.. If you get a red now, you can have a player subbed for 20 minutes which is too much time.
gonna be absolutely raped in the scrum next week lads
Best game in a long while
Louw is a big guy
South Africa’s scrum is whiter than France’s kek
Sasha Feinberg-KWABazulu
>>158597055for you
>>Sacha Hambuger Gomezulu
SAF outchocking France somehow.
>can't even kick it in touchWTF are saffas doing?
bok front rowers will pretend to be injured later in the game and they'll bring the subbed guys back on, calling it now
CONSISTENCY REF?
>>158597085hasidic homeboy is pretty good
Why are all rugby players so shit at kicking? it really isn't that difficult. It's like they don't even practice it.
no era
ok its consistent at least
he dipped and wrapped
That's not a yellow, game's gone.
He totally baited for this one
running headfirst at full speed into the opponent's shoulder is the new meta
Welp...
ARENDSE>>Yoinks
Nah wtf
France fell asleep, the bottlejob starts now
Rugby is unwatchable. Tight games like this are decided by ref calls.
ladies and gentlemen, we got a 2nd half on our hands here
Rugby is hilariously soft now.

>>158597293Derek Bevan, ref from the infamous 1995 WC semi final France vs South Africa. Probably the most rigged sport game I have ever witnessed.After the tournament, the South African oganizer/federation (I don't remember) publicly offerd him a gold watch for "his contribution to South Africa's victory" (litterally what they said), on top of a full vacation for him and his family in a luxury resort.For the final, they just poisonned New Zealand, it was an easier method (they were uking on the field)
>>158597318>you need a TV licence to watch these great shows!Nah, just a disposable email.
>>158597341thanks anon, we've all heard of the poison story but I didn't know there was something with the semi-final, going to dig about and see if there's replay/footage somewhere
boks blew their load bringing their subs on too quick, marx will be gassed by 60 mins
>All flights grounded in US due to 'extraordinary circumstances'o fug
>>158597371Louis Luyt"That bastard," snapped All Blacks legend and then team manager Colin Meads as he led his team out of the banquet after being upset by South African rugby supremo Louis Luyt.In his speech, Luyt said New Zealand (1987) and Australia (1991) were not real world champions as apartheid had prevented South Africa competing in the first two editions.A bad night got worse for the South African official when he offered a gold watch to Welsh match official Derek Bevan, calling him "the most wonderful referee in the world".Bevan, who opted to walk out, had denied France a last-minute try in a rain-soaked semi-final in Durban which would have taken Les Bleus to the final.

>>158597376Makes little sense to me to sub them in at 35min, and the starting front row had only like 2-3 scrums by that time
roid raging now
>>158597384>Luyt said New Zealand (1987) and Australia (1991) were not real world champions as apartheid had prevented South Africa competing in the first two editions.I remember this too. It’s a long time ago now
this is bullshitnothing in that
>>158597409Usually they sub them off with 25-30 to go. Rassie thinks he is being clever, which is not a good idea for South Africans
might be saved by the fact he sort of misses his head
i'm loving this match its a glorious mess with moment of quality
battle of the roid ragers
Most based game in a while
FOR FUCK SAKE, AGAIN ?
>>158597439g-go easy on us butt
Can professional rugby players actually kick the ball into touch instead of dead?
those saffas are enraged madmen
The choke level is beyond any recover.
>>158597452Chill 1 minute more and you have both lucu and dupont
>>158597455predicting point a minute until 60 mins then a flurry of soft wales tries after the all blacks fall asleep.
>tfw saffa score but then yellow is upgraded to a red
This game is going places
duponts vision is actually unreal
>>158597471waking up at 3am for it?
This is a game where the Beast Mtamawarira is needed
ok so I wacth football most of the time.anybody got the expected tries (xT) for this game?
Could be yellow
Get in the bin blackie
lol another yellow, why do I watch this slop
>>158597494Oh well. Another one.
when everything is on the line, when it's time to hold the line, the mutt/ngubu will never fail to betray you.
Good to see the french get yellow that might even things out a bit
>>158597482I don't finish work until 1am (water taxi driver) so we'll see.
It’s not because he’s brown it’s because he is a winger
MEME MATCH
>>158597485The average across comps now is like 8 trys, maybe because its sa people thought it was gonna be less, betting line was problably under/over 5 trys
Cheerio you saffa thug
Wait, the ref is on our side for once ?
I THOUGHT THIS IS STADE DE FRANCE NOT CASINO DE FRANCE
>>158597495fucking sauce nao
TMO should just simulate the match at this point
>>158597529always when it doesn't matter.
KEK this fucking match
>>158597514Bro drive water around for a living lol
is that 4 yellows and a red now? in the past players would be fighting and stuff for that to happen
>>158597482yaLike he has xtravision, considering he's deux points for returning early
France cannot stop them 5m out
whaaaaaaaaaat a match
>French tries all from great plays and breaking away through cracks in defence>Saffa tries just from mauling them 5m from the line until it goes over
>>158597531it's the SDF (sans domicile fixe)
>>158597566Yeah? One of the best moments in the football wc was paraguay eliminating germany by antifutbol and the rough up france
Such a dumb rule why is World Rugby overcomplicating it. Put a lad for 10 minutes in the bin on review. Then gets a red for 20 minutes but the team can get their complement of 15 players back after 20 minutes has elapsed?!?
>>158597592*soccer
Blacks choking here
>>158597595Using red and yellow cards is confusing matters because everyone is used to that in soccer where yellow means caution and two yellows is a red and a red is sent off. Rugby should use a different system not cards
This game makes no sense.
>>158597598hibernophic postjust typical Anglo hate agianst the irish
Shit this is actually a pretty good game despite the cards
>shall we ref the breakdown?>non
>>158597598Two decades on and he's still right, BOD is GOD

>>158597706That’s years ago now. People have just lost interest in following it aside from big tests like tonight, myself included I used to watch most of the pro12/rainbow cup/urc but can’t get into it like I used to. Mostly I think it’s because of the cards and the contemporary interpretation for high tackles, matches get ruined easily

>>158597721Yeah>>158597742Nah it was a big punch to rugby and a lot of retarded decision were taken after 2019
kek how many cards is that this game now
Time to open wide froggies
>>158597791France must score again, something even a drop goal
>>158597706it died before that, when the h-cup changed its name
>>1585977975 yellow and a red I think
How many cards has it been now?
>>158597808Funny you should ask
>>1585978085 yellow one upgraded
>>158597742>matches get ruined easilyI think the worst thing is something gets a yellow card, then a week later the exact same thing doesn't. The inconsistency is insane. Also the URC has some of the worst officiating gloabally anyway.
You fucking frogs only had to score that kick and you'd be fine
The World Cup in Japan was the best one
OoooooooooooooooooooH FUCKKKKKK
>>158597826everyone seethes about the bunker in league, but the decision is correct 99% of the time. TMO's in union act like they're bigger than the game and have to inject themselves to feel relevant from their little cuck bunker.You read the officials for some games and let out an audible sigh because you know they're going to make it about themselves.
Never mind, Saffas can't kick either
This game will be reminded as "The Choke Bowl"
>that fucking kick jesus christ
WHY ARE THEY SO FUCKING BAD AT KICKING HOLY SHIT
Backs against the wall second half performance from France.
>france play beautiful stuff, score some great tries>boks errr push over with a maul a few timesI hate modern rugby.
saffas are winning this arent they
>>158597855I've seen much worse.
Dupont's kicking has been incredible.
Miss my boy Beast
>>158597891If they scrore and France does not, then yes.
Frances game now
See this!? This is what I'm talking about, a scrum's coming, and then BOTH team accepts to have their water boys come on to slow the game? France doing it is not condonable but understandable, but Springboks you're chasing the game
Bro are you fucking serious
>ppp pls get off the field we're trying to play>no? ohh okaay yyyyou toofucking poothetic reffing ngl
This game I swear
Fuck off Cheslin Kolbe screaming his head off as a waterboy
>>158597826The URC sucks because they don’t play everyone twice and the finals series is too much of a cup situation with 8 teams in it straight knockout. There shouldn’t be more than 5 in the finals in a 16 team competition. There’s other things like that stupid made up Italian team, not Benetton, and the Welsh teams being amalgamated franchises rather than the original clubs. It really could be a great competition with a few tweaks and some integrity
honestly wish "we" were still the bag guys of rugby but rsa are just so much better at being the villain
>>158597902Just don’t let them score
oh no look a poor widdle south africunt needs a rest
>>158597945They’ve always been the super villains. I remember asking Dad who we should cheer for in the 1995 wc final and he said the South Africans are pigs
>>158597945You guys are much more likable, true.
french defence has been a lot better, maybe shaun edwards is past it
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Bodied those roided freaks
Get fucked ye cunts
Holy shit
Dear lord that was a game
Fuck yeah, we won !What exactly ?
VICTORY AND REVENGE
HUUUUGE tackle to finish
LBB and Dupont GOATED
>>158597998Won the right to play the same match is 2 months

Saffas are going to have an aneurysm admitting Dupont took the belt to them

>>158598010Nonzero chance that the AB's top the SH group
>>158598019Exactly what I'm thinking.
>>158598010weeks
sa were the better side for the last half hour of the gamethink they were lucky desu still, sa aren't all that
>>158598028True
>>158598028But French anon, to do that the All Blacks have to defeat the Welsh this weekend
>>158598033>theythey being france
I've seen enough, Ireland by 13+ next week
>>158598047surely an insurmountable task
>>158598025It was incredible until World Rugby changed the rules juste before the RWC.
Literally the coolest thing a rugby player has ever done.
>11 hours of ruggers tomorrow>ita-arg>wal-nzl>eng-jap>irl-fijboo
>>158598079meh, not really, opponents were basically scoring 3 tries per game against us, and we had massive weak points like catching high balls or kicks behind the defense (especially behind Penaud). All things the saffas targeted mercilessly during the world cup.
