Wondering how many of our American cousins are actually watching the game? The USA has a team here so being a very patriotic nation how many of you are getting behind your team? or is the Kardashians clashing with the tv schedule

I'm Irish when it comes to rugby. I've only watched the highlights of some games so far - Japan's victory against South Africa was one of the most beautiful moments in sport, never-mind rugby!


I will watch Wales beat England now as I always enjoy the underdog stories. :)

Incredible game ! Reflection of the Japanese spirit!
My favorite are the All Blacks, but my heart is with the Pumas, of course !
Vamos Pumas !

So gutted that England didn't make the KO's :(

I have nearly watched every game. Before the world cup I never watched rugby now I absolutely love it. Still prefer footie, but rugby is a close 2nd.

I love watching the Kiwi's and love watching their haka :)

Nice to know you are fans of the All Blacks guys.
The serious stuff starts after the next round.Teams besides the All Blacks that can win it are france and Australia.
We have to admire Japan doing so well to beat the mighty Boks and now Samoa.
Wales defeat of England with so many players out injured was a tribute to their coach, ex-All Black, Warren Gatland.
England were never going to defeat Australia.The best ever team from the UK were the 1971 Lions, they are a legend in my country.Their coach developed the open running game you see to day.
The Pumas always rate highly with Kiwis, Tom.They have very powerful forwards.
If the U.S. ever seriously develop professional rugby they would crush the rest of the world with their speed and size.
NZ still needs to improve another 75%, then you will see sublime rugby, Sarah:)
