Super rugby: Eddie Jones has been confirmed as Stormers coach  I reckon that All Blacks lineup will have absolutely no problem putting 80+ on Namibia, if they want to. France-Romania and Argentina-Georgia will also be blow outs, but probably nothing like that magnitude.

Are the world cup matches shown on major stations or put on in bars etc. in the US at all (specifically New England)? I've inconveniently booked my honeymoon for the first two weeks of October but if at all possible would like to watch at least some of the matches live... might we have to take our laptop and see if our hotel wifi will let us stream?

I'm sure you can find some hole of an Irish Pub that will be showing it. They turn up everywhere.

They're showing it in a little sports bar in Key West where my fiancé's family are, so I'm sure you'll be able to find a place showing it. Doesn't sound like its uncommon anyway.

Apollodorus posted:Going to be fun coaching JdV--is he still going to be playing there? We'll see - odds point to yes, currently. He's supposed to be retiring from Springbok selection (although tbh, I doubt he'll need to make himself unavailable). One thing to remember is that although he's an elder statesman no matter what, he's currently playing after having his jaw wired shut for weeks and dropping 6-8kg in weight; so he appears a lot more frail than usual. It's a real problem when he's usually the man to crash the ball from the middle. I mean, a large part of the Bok's problems against against Japan was the complete lack of plan B. Everything relied on expansive moves from the backs - no crash ball, except when forwards dropped in, and everything was about possession rather than position (which is uh, antithesis to SA rugby: usually it is possession & position, or position & pressure). JdV has usually been the man who decides what's happening past 10, and he didn't seem to be making many, if any, calls to impose himself. And he got the big ones (kick for points/tries) wrong. Not enough rugby...

Not enough rugby... Yeah, exactly. But let's give Japan credit - they (specifically Eddie Jones) knew that SA were going to play like that, and specifically targeted the Boks' gameplan to deny them the opportunity to play their game. And in the process, they played some thrilling, crowd-pleasing rugby in which the fact that they kicked a bunch of points didn't seem to undermine the exciting nature of their play. Holy poo poo that game was so good, I feel like I need to watch it again.

Getting excited for this. Paddy power still have Scotland with a -16 handicap, I think they're more than capable of scoring but taking Japan at those odds is surely free money. Could see a fair few tries going in but I reckon Japan can do it. Sorry Scots goons but Japan in the knockouts is just too good to miss! also anime avatars

The ITV coverage hasn't been as bad as I was expecting, that isn't to say it's been good. It's been better than the football World Cup coverage but then you can make anything better by removing Adrian Chiles from it.
