Anyone catch the New Zealand-England match? Pretty entertaining show for a match with no tries. Pretty wide open, but lots of handling errors.

Yeah you could tell it was the first test of the season for them. Lots of errors on both sides. But it shouldn't have been that bad cause the England players just finished the Premiership season and the All Blacks are in the middle of Super Rugby so they should all be in form.

Agree, with you on the penalty kicks.

Wish we would've stayed up for the France-Aussie match, sounds like that one was an onslaught on the scoreboard.

It was an ugly game for the French. They look like they came out ready to play but then the Wallabies just squashed them. Granted I didn't think this French side would win but I didn't think it would be that bad. France was missing some of their big names who should be back next week for the second test so that hopefully will be a better game.


Springboks won big too over the World XV though it was competitive for the first half. Really though that was just a warmup for them for Wales nextweekend.

Getting ready to watch Ireland vs Argentina and Japan vs Canada. Might was USA vs Scotland too even though I had the score spoiled for me.
