Rugby

[johnp]

Just like the Rugby World Cup, only more competitive. What a laughable event that is, with islands as big as my local Tesco taking part, like Western Samoa and all those other clowns from the Pacific.

More teams are in with a chance of winning the cricket World Cup than there are the egg chasing one. Way more competitive.

I kinda meant that a World Cup should be played by countries from all over the world, not from a pool of about 20 (like cricket and rugby).
They should call it the "Couple of Countries Cup".

Yes, they should.

I'm trying to think of other, truly global sports like football....tennis and golf? That'd be about it?

Athletics?

Was taken a year after I was born, but did indeed wear the same jersey and blazer combo. In fact Grizzlor Gresty was my Latin teacher for a year too. I once got suspended for not coming to training in 5th year, preferring to play footy on the yard at dinner time.

I had no idea that Alan Davies, Johnny Ramone, Little Jimmy Osmond and Adolf Hitler Jr. even played rugby, let alone appeared in the same team.

You forgot Leo Sawyer and Edward Woodward

[Neil Young]

Yes, they should.

Tennis and golf don't get played too much in poorer parts of the world (i.e. lots of it).

Cycling is getting global.

Cricket's a minority sport in comparison.

Another thread with rugby in the title and I am getting ignored. I'm starting to get a complex about this.

I live near Rugby. I wouldn't ignore you if you came round for a coffee

More bikes needed if you ask me.
