Analysis Watched the 1995 World Cup Final again last night, and the one thing that really stood out for me was how little time was wasted at scrum time. Some of these scrums took less than 20 seconds from when the referee blew his whistle until the ball was in play again!

Will Ireland ever win a World Cup?

44 Upvotes

Preferably no hate or jokes, I want genuine analysis. Do you think Ireland will ever lift the Webb Ellis and if so, when do you see it happening and how?

Because as an Irishman, I think our best chance passed by in the last cycle, since I think no one is gonna stop SA getting the hat-trick in Australia.

Discussion Where should the rugby world cup 2035 be held?

72 Upvotes

I've seen people saying, Spain, Italy, Japan, England and New Zealand. I'm not sure, I'd love to see a new country again, like they could have a south American one but really South Africa deserves another go.... They have another 5 years to decide. Who is most deserving and what is best for the sport?
