The 2023 Rugby World Cup Thread 22:00 - Aug 16 with 49929 viewsKeithHaynes

Our very own RWC thread.

Ireland, Scotland, Wales and England will join 16 other nations as they compete for the ultimate prize in rugby – the Webb Ellis Cup – which was last won by the Springboks in 2019. The opening match of Rugby World Cup 2023 will see hosts France face three-time winners New Zealand on Friday 8th September. The final will take place seven weeks later on Saturday 28th October.

Interesting that you think/recognise I get bullied on here.


I wouldn't say that you are bullied. You post extream views that the majority don't agree with. If the majority then tell you that you are wrong and sometimes the post is not acceptable, that is not bullying.

If you feel you are bullied report it to the mods, let them decide.

I post middle of the road views, perhaps it's you that hold extreme views.

OHL seems to recognise I'm bullied, now I'm sure ive seen him say in the past that he PMs posters so perhaps he is getting a gang together, he is the type of person that would try and do that isn't he ?

I think you should retract that claim against OHL, unless you have facts to back it up, which you won't have.

Well hijacking the rugby thread aside, you do not post middle of the road views, not unless the middle of your road is off the left side of the pavement in your back garden.

I've said before, you make Jeremy Corbyn look more right than left.

Being British doesn't make you a quisling btw, To be a quisling you would be acting against yur own country and that makes myself and every other person born in Wales Welsh AND British. You don't like that but it is a fact.

Until the Welsh electorate decide we want to be an indy country that holds true. As the current split, even if being very generous is more than 2-1 for staying in the union then no person who calls themselves Welsh and British is a quisling though constantly spouting anti British stuff could be seen as traitorous, I'll let others decide.

PS, nobody needs to encourage others to deride the posters you mention, just like yourself the content of their own posts brings derision, its more a coming together than ganging up, because the majority agree on something, it doesn't make us a gang.

PPS, paranoid much? OHL getting a gang together.....

I watched the Wales game down the pub and couldn’t hear the commentary etc. my thoughts were that we started well, but it went down hill from there. I was very disappointed but not surprised, we kick the ball away which means the opposition are going to run it back at us which forces us to expend huge amounts of energy in tackling. We should have tried to run Argentina ragged with our pace, but we got decked in and their bruising forwards took control and then proceeded to tighten the screw. We were already losing when the intercepted pass was thrown and if truth be told not looking likely to score.

Kicking the ball away to the opposition means more often or not they will carry the ball back to you which means more energy sapping defence and that’s the way it went. Argentina’s big brusing forwards carried the day.

Ireland… where do you start. They didn’t kick when they had a couple relatively easy penalties and paid the price. I said yesterday they’d crash and burn and so it was.

Tomorrow, I fancy SA and England to win. I’d prefer to see a France Fiji SF, but can’t see that happening.


We had a great first 15, 20 minutes and not much else throughout the rest of the game, apart from a couple of quality play, we just could sustain our game, Rowlands had a bit of a stinker.
Lineout and a lot of our play in the loose fell way short of what we needed, aimless kicking out of the hand was very poor as well, Argentina will be out themselves next weekend as we would have been.
I think that early 10 point lead give us a false sense of security and our mindset dithered from there on in, unfortunately.

I don't try and wind people up at all, if I think Labour and Conservatives are very similar, what do yo want me to say ?
If I think it's better living in Wales than England what do you want me to say ?
If I think Swansea has enough Government funding (and Cardiff too much) and the rest of Wales should have more, what do you want me to say ?
If I think Doctors pay and public sector pensions are too generous what do you want me to say ?
If I think taxes on the rich should be raised, what do you want me to say ?
If I think that Swansea had better individual players when they made the top division than when they reached the top division second time around, then what do you want me to say ?
If I think Wales could have won 2 World cups if John Charles wasn't injured and if Wales had entered in 1934, what do you want me to say ?
If I think Tony Blair was a red Tory and now Starmer, what do you want me to say ?
If I think Irish republicans at the beginning of the troubles were treated as second class citizens, what do you want me to say ?
If I think it's medieval that England in particular supports having an unelected chamber (house of Lords), a Monarchy and a state religion, then what do you want me to say ?
If I think Wales was robbed against Yugoslavia in the European championships and then against Scotland in the World cup in the 70s then what do you want me to say ?
If I think Welsh should not have had super clubs (team names, team colours) when they went to regions, what do you want me to say ?
If I think Glamorgan cricket did the dirty on Swansea , what do you want me to say ?
If I think it was wrong for Welsh football League clubs to have only English officials when playing English clubs, then what do you want me to say ?
If I am anti imperialist and tend support indigenous small groups, then what do you want me to say ?

My point of view is my point of view, if people want to debate my point of view on a message board then fine, that's great but I don't deliberately take a different point of view to antagonise anyone, my point of view is my point of view and if people ldon't like it then that's their problem, my view is my view, I don't troll (whatever that is).

"If I think it was wrong for Welsh football League clubs to have only English officials when playing English clubs, then what do you want me to say ?"

I think I got that one covered with the above.

I could go into they are the worst in the World, they don't understand VAR when the rest of the world do, their top refs ref by numbers one booking for you one booking for them, their top guy let a Kung foo kick go in the World cup final and another one booked the same player 3 times (can't remember if that was Euro or world cup finals now), they are very bad

Even my wife said watching the rugby 'oh no it's an English ref coming on, we will lose now, how right she was, Englands biggest rivals in World rugby is or at least was but probably still is is Wales, their clubs played each other for a hundred years plus and for us to have to suffer an English ref you just knew he would make a controversial match deciding decision against us, everytime ref as they say.

I think we lost because Argentina upped the forward battle second half and made less mistakes. New Zealand will crush them in the semis
