Brain fart.

This has been complete domination.

In other news, I should have IRB ref certification by the end of next month.

Too bad you can't be FIFA certified so you can screw over some Mexican and Italian teams.

Samoa looks pretty good. I can't wait to see Samoa vs. Fiji in person. Running rugby at its best.

Samoa 49 - 12 Namibia

Samoa was just better than Namibia. Bigger, stronger, faster, and more technical. Only concern for Samoa from this match is a few injuries.

Canada 25 - 20 Tonga

I don't know what to make of this. Horribly ugly match, with the referee missing a blatant sin-bin penalty for each side. Rain and wind made kicking a problem for both sides (notably, Tonga decided to just give up kicking in the first half). Tonga should have won this match, but Canada did what Tonga should have done: they out muscled them.

From a US standpoint, I'm not sure what to take from this. Is Canada that good, or is Tonga that bad? How do we compare?

Also, the fact that Adam Kleeberger will not be seen by the majority of the American public saddens me greatly. The guy's built for a cult following and put in a MOTM display.

I just can't picture Canada being that good. From what you mentioned this sounds like the much more logical choice. Kinda sounds like our match against Ireland IMO.

Congrats. That makes two of us on this site (though I'm putting off full time reffing for a little while...)

BTW, if you haven't downloaded the RWC App to your smartphone or tablet, you're doing yourself a disservice.

I get back home on 10/9. Would love to stay longer but, we travel to play Renegades on 10/15. We could use some support.

Here's our schedule. This season will be interesting.


To bring something back from page 2 or so, here's our schedule: LINK

Not sure whether I'll be going to Tallahassee, as I would have just gotten back from a trip back home to NOLA for a wedding. Kind of upset that I'll be missing the Charleston match, as well.

Tuilagi is a monster. I've seen him play before but lastnight He was in great form. Hopefully the US pulls it out today, they should be playing with alot of confidence.

That's a solid schedule.

If that's gonna be Charlotte's first side, you'll have to hook me up with the film for that game.

No one wants to play our gold side. Everyone that contacts us says they want to play our D3 side. Hope we can get at least one quality match before the traveling to play the Gades.

Didn't y'all win the D2 NC last year? If so, then this make complete sense.
