Black on Blue tonight, with a fairly forgone conclusion, but will Italy put up a fight or give a HT scare? Find out later!

    I just thought I’d pop into the old /r to see how the usual punters were seeing things, and I must say. I get that this is far quieter and it’s really just a handful of us bantering together.

    But I do enjoy the sanity and mostly well reasoned and rational chat we have here :) Maybe its because we must be real die-hard fans to want to chat about footy on a niche platform together, but compared to some of the hot takes over there I do wonder if the biggest difference is we’ve all watched at least 1 game of rugby before ;)

      A bit less shitposting here for sure. But some good fun nevertheless. Tommy Allan yet to miss a kick is fantastic to see too. Of course, this was Scotland 12 years ago with Chris Paterson. And we were guff then too, but it gave us a platform, which Italy can have here too

      Hoping NZ ring the subs early doors and give some other boys a shot

        Yeah it’d be the greatest comeback in the world if they were to win it from here and I doubt that’s possible. But if they keep playing like they’ve done in the first couple of minutes they could easily win the 2nd half.
