    Sure we must have some rugby union fans amongst us ?

    What a fantastic match it was, yes I am biased but to see Scotland returning to the force they were years ago is wonderful especially against the mighty 'All Blacks' and our boy Stuart Hogg taking us so close to victory in the dying seconds :D

    A genuine well done to England against Australia :thumbsup:

    Great game, and good for world rugby that teams are catching up and competing with the AB's
    If only the old boys club in Dublin ( world rugby administrators) would pull their heads out of their arses and be more transparent in thier allocation of world cup hosts.....

    Great game and a good fight by Scotland, many hearts in mouths at the bar in that dying minute last night for sure!

    Great spirit by Scotland. Started attacking from the very first minute till the last. ABs didn't turn up but they still went about doing their business. Goes to show how good a team they are; even when they are under performing, all they need is a clean break and tries are scored.

    Would love to go to one of these games. My wife studied abroad in New Zealand for 6 months and absolutely raved about the games and New Zealand in general.

    Was a fabulous match. The All Blacks didn't seem to play to their normal standard (including the two yellows), but Scotland did superbly to take full advantage (including pressuring the second yellow). Despite being a regular cyclist I'm pretty sure I set a new maximum heart rate in those last two minutes!
    What really put the cherry on top was how unhappy the Scots team looked at the end. There was no back-slapping and 'look how well we did against the world champions', they truly looked distraught and believed they should have won - superb spirit. Was wonderful to watch.

    Understandably I have never seen Hogg looking so down.

    Defeat yes but well done to each and every one of the boys :thumbsup:

    They played well and should have a good chance against Wallabies this weekend.
