I'm not sure if the rugby world Cup is even on TV after the first few games? Not seen it for a bit.
But 73-3 for NZ-Namibia. Wow.
You'd think NZ would pace themselves a bit.

Pretty damning.

They had to compensate for their first defeat in a group phase I guess.

I noticed the rugby is often hidden away on ITV4 unless a home nation is playing - maybe even when Ireland is playing it's hidden? Might explain not seeing it so often.

Caught some of Scotland yesterday. It's interesting that you have these make weight teams in the final tournament and they make their inclusion interesting and worthwhile with some kind of bonus points for scoring more system that I don't understand.
It would be interesting to see this tried in football

Also interesting in seeing Romania vainly trying to get just one try and not score 0. They got close enough at points I wonder why they didn't just grab a drop goal or two.
