Rugby World Cup
« on: 20 September 2019, 08:04:49 »

This begins today,this time around it's being held in japan so if you're wanting to watch it the time difference will of course need taking into account.Someone over there is taking it seriously as the other day a crowd of 15,000 gathered to watch the Welsh team training :o

To be fair if I'd gone half way across the globe to see it, I'd want to catch everything I could.

Also I'd imagine the controversy of Rob Howley has upped the already significant focus on the team.

I'd love to go to Japan!  8)

But I think I'd rather go when the place isn't over run with drunken Brits, Aussies, Kiwis and Saffers!  :)

Japan is permanently overrun, except for Tokyo, I believe that's quite quiet.  ;D

Englands campaign got off to a reasonable start although with all the handling errors they committed I think the scoreline was somewhat flattering as a "better" team than Tonga would I feel have severely punished those errors.Hopefully they'll tighten up on these basics as the tournament progresses.

Also, hopefully Eddie Jones' playing down of Jonny May's 'injury' isn't just bluster. He's the kind of player that can make some magic that lifts a whole team, to lose him so early would be a massive blow  >:(

Do it, one of the best trips I've ever done with my mates. We have been all over the states and Europe, but Japan was by far the best.

The food, culture, everything is so different. Not place if you have food allergies though, as 70% of the time, we had no idea what we had ordered.  ;D

That was part of the fun though, we did Tokyo and Kyoto  :)

Oh and it's the first time ever on a train where I felt pushed back in my seat, as the train accelerated from 140mph due to bad weather. They apologised in English for running so slow due to bad weather.  ;D

I can't decide which is best. The Scotland football team or the Scotland rugby team. :)

I honestly love the Japanese team, they are great ambassadors for the sport and they captured the imagination of the country beating RSA last world cup

I really hope they make it out of the group stages.
