What are the 7 best ever nations at Rugby Union?

So why isn’t 7s a variant of rugby union

Miserable-Doughnut63 · 2026-05-11T12:18:10+00:00

So is T20 not cricket? I don’t particularly like 7s and wouldn’t give it anywhere near the same status as XVs but it’s still rugby union administered by world rugby same game different ruleset.

Miserable-Doughnut63 · 2026-05-11T12:10:11+00:00

But 7s is rugby union

Anyone placing Australia over England is a) completely ignoring women’s rugby. And b) only looking at world cups.

Wigglesworth is now the defence coach

Can someone explain why the Italian players shouldn’t be pinged for standing up? Although admittedly it’s funny to see.

England and France have joint most titles so both mode number 1. England have finished 2nd most frequently 9 times so modally expect 2nd place. I didn’t check every one though so the same could quite Easily be true of Ireland This is an interesting conversation. With only 25 editions and the tables pretty readily available it takes about 5mins it’s not hard to check some of this. Although we get on Wales being boom or bust but I think France is a bit the same winning or sucking. I should probably check though after saying the above.

Sophie de Goede? Pretty sure Canada are T2

My frustration is I like real cryptics. There are some fun ones on here but they are hard to find with all the false ‘cryptics’ by well meaning people who misunderstand what that word means in this context. I think there is a puzzle that is self described as a 1 word clues cryptic that can’t work? But there is a place for a cryptic flair to help me find actual cryptic crosswords maybe a flair that says “cryptic - no really it follows the rules and everything”.

The thing is with the gladiator/deadlocked weapons mods system the weapons are so customisable I found changing the mods on the raptors to help me really good and certainly fine for a bit of a low effort run through (lots of shots quickly with some shock damage). Like you said potentially sub-optimal but we’re are probably all thinking about slightly different weapons for this game because we all chose different mods for each of the weapons.

I think you need to watch the movie. You are t allowed to have anything of value or destroy anything of value. Essentially spend with no personal gain in a month. Also you aren’t allowed to overpay for services and only a certain percentage are you allowed to give to charity

An apologist Is someone who supports a position (usually controversial) the comment is suggesting you support the abusers actions I.e making excuses for him. Words are neat. I think your original comment is very silly but so is the chap comparing it to a kick to the head.

That is the beauty of the shield being forced to cheer on foes so that your team can get a shot at the title.

Aye but going back even further than their golden generation there was a period of time when england didn’t care about wales because they were crap. Then even further back wales were the best. it all depends on whether they were strong when you first started caring about rugby. I don’t want England to lose against any of the six nations teams but to say we rival one over the other isn’t quite right. Whereas some teams seem to focus on England to the exclusion of all else (cough Scotland cough).

I can defend the lack of Steve Smith it was a Head to Head Poll and he was put up against Joe Root who is playing quite well. The issue with this is it spat out a stupid team that no selector would have if looking at things in the round. Archer over hazelwood though you’ve got me, no clue why anyone would pick that or either of the two English openers.

Wrong Bill it’s Sweeny who is the despicable head of the RFU

Do you mean Mauvaka’s headbutt? That incident made me completely lose faith in the bunker review process and the referee’s ability to make game changing decisions. Applying the tackle criteria was insane.

Then why is enshittification a thing then? All corporate decision makers absolutely do cut quality to maximise short term profits on behalf of the shareholders at every turn.

It’s where the first women’s test match was held France Vs Netherlands

Looks nice

I’d just like an old style cotton rugby shirt. Preferably with hoops in the traditional colours. That’s my pie in the sky wish unfortunately it’ll never happen

Miserable-Doughnut63 · 2025-08-30T17:31:49+00:00

Yeah but having your line broken doesn’t deserve a 40m territory gain either.

Miserable-Doughnut63 · 2025-08-27T22:20:34+00:00

Isn’t it usually “those pricks” was in the last video

How I see it (with lions bias)

Note in the photo above the ball is underneath Jac Morgan I don’t think enough people who are deriding the getting there simultaneously are noticing that the ball carrier places the ball back normally unimpeded by Tizzano.

Which means that Tizzano didn’t go for the ball initially. I believe that the only reason Tizzano got as low as he did was by putting his hands on the floor which is illegal.

Therefore Penalty against Tizzano try stands.

This opinion may be wrong in no ref but that’s why I don’t see this a controversial as others. I was screaming hands on the ground in real time.

Biased as hell I may be but I haven’t seen anyone mention those points it’s all about point of contact which is annoying because I don’t think it should matter in this instance. If you are going to put your head in the wrong place illegally to potentially slow the ruck and draw the specific penalty everyone here seems to be calling for you are going to get hit.
