With the RWC underway in France, I thought it would be interesting to survey RFF for interest in the sport. Any current/former players out there? Also of interest, is Vintage Rugby. The third Vintage Rugby Carnival will be held in Christchurch, NZ, September, 2008. Age of players range 45-80+.
 
Any Australians on the board?................well played! A little stronger up front and you’d have made it; shame..........again

:angel:
 
late to the party...i am a former player and an avid fan though it can be hard to find on tv over here.

I actually worked for rugby canada this summer as a liason officer which was kind of neat. when i'm not supporting canada I'm a Boks and Bleus fan. I'll also support anyone playing England :D

Well that’s one sin that contains its own penance!

I do hope the Canadian team got back home safely?

:angel: :rolleyes:
 
They did...and for a team of non-professionals I think they did alright. Fitness and finish and we'd have beaten Fiji...

That said, after England lost to SA I was more than impressed that they found form enough to beat Oz. I may not support them, but I can recognise their achievements. Not bad for a bunch of old timers.

I thought your comments were jest or banter, I was responding in kind, I have the greatest respect for Canada and the other semi-pro teams that were taking part, all brave men
