Italians have no reason to oppose a playoff. If they win the playoff, they prove they're good enough for that level. If they lose, they get to spend a year spanking the other European countries to build back up their confidence.

>>74197453
Not him, but let me give my 2c.
I know you're being "funny" and enjoying "banter" with the lads, but isn't it ironic that you'd question a Big Strong Kiwi's elite rugby knowledge, when your entire British 6N contingent is coached by Kiwis and Australians? Are you telling me there's not one pommy coach who knows enough about rugby to coach your NT? pathetic.

seen 0 (zero) 6N games this season
are they worth getting out of bed for?

>>74197577

Generally no because the 6 nations is usually too close that whoever spanks Italy the hardest could be crowned champions by points difference

Reminder that European "pro" rugby is literally a retirement home for NZ players, where they can have a few easy games and earn ridiculous amounts, simply because they're kiwis.

Reminder that the Lions will not win a single game versus NZ in 2017; in fact, they'll probably lose against Super teams too.

Reminder that the average British rugby fan DESPISES New Zealand based solely on the decades of embarrassing defeats at the hands of the All Blacks.

Reminder that the entire British Isles is so lacking in coaching knowledge that they are forced to recruit SH coaches just to keep up with the SH.

Reminder beating the All Blacks in a demonstration match was the greatest moment in Irish sporting, and possibly national, history.

Reminder that England performed so poorly at their own World Cup in 2015 that they have been an international laughing stock ever since.

Reminder that England have dodged NZ since then, yet the average English fan will tell you they are currently world #1. Were they to play right now on neutral ground, England would get done by 30 points.

/thread

>>74197642
get the fuck outta my face or you'll get glassed too

Reminder that the Welsh National Rugby Union Team traveled to NZ and got absolutely spanked by the Gallagher Chiefs who had more than half their players missing.

Further reminder that after this embarrassing loss the British and Irish Lions tried to back pedal on their contract which has them playing weakened New Zealand Super Rugby teams mid week. They then entered damage control a year before a game was meant to be played saying they players will be over worked and be unable to perform at their usual strength during the tour.

Northern Hemisphere rugby literally shakes in their boots at the idea of playing weakened Club rugby teams, under us Kiwis know a lot about shaking.

>>74197630

>>74197812

>>74197779
>England - Aussie coach
>France - they have honour and a French coach
>Ireland - Kiwi coach
>Italy- Irish coach
>Scotland - Kiwi coach
>Wales - they have honour and a Welsh coach

2 (two) teams have a coach from their country
2 (two) teams have BSK's leading them
3 (three) teams have NH coaches

The Lions (the super group of rugby to show off how great the NH is at rugby) is coached by a BSK

Reminder Kiwi posters are FORCED to overstate their loss to Ireland to compensate for the fact no one gives a fuck about rugby outside of their Hobbiton hovel

>>74197858
uhh what??

>>74197871
Eddie is Japanese.

>>74197719
Apart from Georgia, Namibia and Tonga England have beaten the same teams that NZ did on their run.

>>74197787
unfortunately for you, rugby isn't rock paper scissors
unless your players learn how to retain the ball for more than 6 phases, they're absolutely fucked

>>74197871
>Wales - they have honour and a Welsh coach
Well, they have a Welsh caretaker coach while BSK Warren Gatland tries to do something with their shitty Lions.

>>74198298
kek, they even had rationing recently or lettuce

>the deprived shithole of the uk

So how many will England extend the win record to? Will have to play away in Argentina without the Lions contingent. Ideally Gatland just picks all Wales players

I really hope we'll be able to have a decent team for 2019 but there's still a lot of work after the pathetic game against a very weak Scottish team...

>>74198116
For Edinburgh, it's pretty reasonable.

I'm not sure Scotland, with their 6 foreign players at the start of the game, has any place to talk here.

Proud and rich heritage, pure lineage.

What makes the whole player's playing for different nations than their nationality funny is how it's 98% one way traffic.
Like what nh players have gone to play for a non eu team. Stephen moore sort of, but he didn't start playing in ireland to my knowledge, other than that....

>>74202272
Let's look at the easiest way to compare all quickly, the last RWC, which of we are honest is when each nation stretches their rules to have their best team.

Ireland have less now, not necessarily less than nz but less than in that world cup.

>>74202587
I think we are about the same. Maybe less if we were to select a squad of players right now
5/32 (I think that website looked at the 32 man squads) is not bad at all.

what are the ingredients/how'd you make it?

>>74203017
I didn't make it

Stop using the word less when you should be using the word fewer. Jesus christ you people invented English didn't you?

The same ingredients that go in every salad dressing? Oil, acid, flavour.

Try olive oil, red wine vinegar, chopped basil, flat leaf parseley.

look while what that br poster said is a bit optimistic verging on the dillusional he is right that the six nations needs a shake up of sorts, be that a new second tier group of six with the winner going up and loser going down respectively or some such system of relegation and promotion.
Italy either needs to get their shit togther quick, work you magic conor o'shea, or something must change.
50+ point thrashings help no one.

Reminder that none of you know anything about rugby and I'm going to beat you all in tipping and in fantasy.

Which nations are best positionally? I'd say:
Front row-Ireland, Argentina
Locks-NZ, England
Back row-Australia, Wales
Half backs-NZ
Centres-NZ
Back 3-NZ

>>74205530
Australian back row was good a couple years back but they've really faded. Still yet to understand why anybody rates warburton or blue hat man.

>>74205554
Welsh rate anything wearing red or covered in white fur

>>74205530
Front row- 1st Ireland 2nd Georgia 3rd France
Locks- 1st England 2nd NZ 3rd South Africa?
Back row- 1st Australia 2nd Wales 3rd Ireland
Half backs- 1st NZ 2nd Ireland 3rd Wales
Centres- 1st NZ 2nd Australia 3rd England
Back 3- 1st NZ 2nd Scotland 3rd England

>>74205569

kek you just reminded me of when Ravi Bopara saw a sheep for the first time

Going through Jonathan Davies' family tree to see if he has English ancestry after that kick. Apparently his great, great aunt once kissed an Englishman.

Having to travel to Africa every 2nd week.

The super rugby is so fucking retarded in terms of pools.

18 teams right, it'd make sense to do 3 pools of 6. 6 South african teams, 6 of Australia and Japan, 6 of nz + Arg. this would be fairest in terms of travel, and match attendance.

NOPE. Instead japs and Arg are in the 2 South african groups, which are stretched too thin already.

Instead we have force Japan and Argentina to fly like 16 hours each way every second week, so they're permanently jet lagged, and home sick, and unfit because they lose 2 days travelling.

>>74206495
>homesick
That never has been and never will be a valid excuse for underperformance

>>74206796
Nah argies'll do alright this year
i see the boks shitness rubbing off on the super teams

>>74207551
They also had a huge learning curve last year.
So I would expect them to do better.

>>74207551
Argies should get 5 teams. They have 100 000 registered players, guess it's a money issue? The team coherence could get shited tho-

>>74208005

In terms of franchises it doesn't really make much sense as Buenos Aires is really the only place in Argentina that can sustain it, whether you put 1 or 10 teams there, the amount of money Super Rugby makes from it will be the same.

>>74208189
Buenos Aires isn't only the capital of Argentina. There's the City of Buenos Aires, the Metropolitan Region of Buenos Aires (El Conurbano) and the Province of Buenos Aires (the capital is La Plata, but there are relevant cities far from city of BA, like Bahía Blanca and Mar Del Plata).

Also, Rosario, Córdoba and Mendoza (I dunno on Santa Fé and Tucumán) have 1 million people each
