Samoa v USA.. yeah I saw it, watched it mostly twice.... watched the last 4 minutes too many times.... kudos to the Samoans for running down the clock.... !
We need a kicking game... missed too many penalty kicks throughout the tournament.
We have endurance, need CAPs. I think most of the Springboks have more CAPs per man than the entire USA side put together. Maybe they'll play their second stringers... either way I'll be glued to the tube. Maybe I'll pre-salt my beer so the tears won't be noticed.
Ireland? ...my second team.. sigh.
The sides are growing more even and that's a good thing. Rumor is that more Americans will be picked up by other teams.. hope so.. Rugby here is still by far an amateur sport.. though San Diego has a strong local sport club .. OMBAC... Old Mission Beach Athletic Club... Rugby, "Over The Line" and more..
An aside:
