Honest question to rugby followers. @rugby

Current world number one take on in the second quarterfinal at Stade de France on a Saturday night.

The sea of green fans managed to drown out the Haka, Wayne Barnes refereeing.

I'm unabashedly in favour of winning the tournament, but Ireland is my close second.

Let's go!

@rugby I swear the answer to modern rugby is simply not giving a penalty in your own 22. 30 phases from and finally Ireland cough up a penalty, which flail a kick and grab the 3 as a followup.

Still, green's ability to not give up a penalty in the preceding 4 minutes of hammering is a lesson for a lot of teams cough Wales cough what's that now?

@rugby Just to clear, are using Aaron Smith in the corner, NOT Aerosmith

Spot the difference:

@rugby Ball's out and Ireland grab it, subtracting all the progress, and we're back down in territory, but Savea Savea Savea, he's all over it and it's penalty New Zealand.

@rugby Barnesy takes no guff. It's a clean line out, big maul, and NZL give up a penalty try for collapsing the maul on the line.

And a yellow! Taylor off.

down to 14 again

@rugby need to capitalise on this yellow time, but so far it's two penalties and we're halfway through the sin bin time.

Tak, to już dziś! Zaczyna się cały miesiąc (z hakiem) pozytywnych emocji sportowych – Mistrzostwa Świata w Rugby Francja 2023. Za moment mecz otwarcia – gospodarze kontra trzykrotni mistrzowie świata i trzecia drużyna japońskiego turnieju sprzed czterech lat, czyli vs
Jako kibic mam nadzieję na widowiskową grę Nowozelandczyków i korzystny wynik, ale... Francja to Francja, ekipa z tradycjami. Mało kto w PL zdaje sobie sprawę z faktu, że we Francji rugby cieszy się taką samą, jak nie większą popularnością, niż kopana szmacianka ;)
Kibicujmy zatem i patrzmy, jak wielkie gwiazdy mogą zachowywać się na boisku normalnie i kulturalnie, z szacunkiem do siebie nawzajem, sędziów i kibiców.

And Switzerland wins the Group whilst NZ stays home.

Pretty good game for a goalless draw.

At last NZL gets a shot on target.

Did you know NZL was the only team not to lose a match at the 2010 World Cup. Three draws and went out at the Group Stage.

I know they've somehow lost to PHI but this is feeling eerily similar.

PHI down to 10 players for a late tackle just above the ankle.

NZL with the possession and the chances but SUI looking more than comfortable soaking it up.
