Smiffers - there is not one of us on here who would not like to see GB  (in fact anyone) stuff the fucking Kangaroos once and for all.

 

Sadly, it happens as often as Barcelona get relegated.

 

On a worldwide basis of course, there is indifference. To your average Zimbabwean or Nepalese RL is right up there with deck quoits.

Aye.

 

The Nepal Super 15's is up there with the Olympics as the 'must watch' sport.

 

Good to see England beat Wales at anything but I've told you before mate - McDonalds don't have 30000 'restaurants' because the quality of their food is amazing.

 

You could sell bags of festering catshit if the media tell people often enough that it's good for them.

 

Wanking Tarquin off when good ol' Faz hoofs it over the posts from 7 furlongs away whenever the referee gets bored watching the fat lads roll around on top of each other, really isn't my kind of entertainment. But given the passing and catching abilities are on a par with Leigh Miners under 8's, its perhaps best of a piss poor range of 'skills'.

The scrummaging in this tournament has been nothing short of cringeworthy. It's fucking shambolic.

 

I timed one scrum the other week and it took 4.30mins before the ref gave up and just asked someone to clog the ball into touch.

 

You'd think they were trying to organise a 70-man human pyramid rather than a pushing contest.

 

Eventually, one of the scrums "went well" - At least I think it did because all the tubsters stopped poking each other up the arse just long enough to congratulate their mates on being fatter than the other mob when it all collapsed into big pile on.

Like the current RL world cup winners, New Zealand?

 

Once union realised their sport was a shit amateur bum festival for the middle to upper classes, dying on its arse, they created their own world cup in 1987. Since then NZ have won it 3 times. Australia and South Africa twice. England's monotonous success at scoring a sum total of 1 try in the quarters semi and final, equals WC win. Hardly a global spread. Nobody else has even come close.

 

The first RL world cup was in 1954. Since then the convicts have won it 10 times, Great Britain 3 times, and the current holders NZ once. So only South Africa stand out of the crowd.

 

It shows both rugby world cups are made up of counties there simply to make up the numbers, until the same 2 or 3 out of 4 reach the semis.

You can see the Welsh, French and probably more so now Argentina winning the World Cup, cannot see a new name being engraved on the League trophy.

 

Having said that it is a case of 2 bald men fighting over a comb when you look at the association football World Cup.

Apart from Australia won in 2013...

England won more international games in the space of a couple of weeks than the RL lot have in the past 20 years. JSL.

 

Have they fuck

 

43 against France (16 times), Wales (eight), New Zealand (4), Russia (3), Ireland (3), Fiji (2), Tonga (2), Samoa (2), Papua New Guinea (2) and USA.

Fancying our chances for the next RWC. Getting the bet on early.

 

Jones can be a nasty bit of work and there'll be no tolerance for any fucking about by any of the players.

 

His 'win at all costs' mentality was always on display down here and I am just getting the feeling that this may have been all that we were missing. Stuart Lancaster for example. Typically sporting and gentlemanly 'jolly hockey sticks' type we seem to be so good at producing. Jones' mongrel attitude could return us to the pinnacle. I feels it in me water.

We're a far better organised team now thanks to Eddie Jones but to win the World Cup we'd need New Zealand to go into a slump.For now they have better players than us.

 

 

They said that in 2003. We even went to their place and did them before winning the World Cup.

 

They've choked a good few times even if overall they are the worlds best.
