Rugby - All Blacks vs USA


»www.youtube.com/watch?v= ··· t63TUi98



So the New Zealand All Blacks played the USA Eagles at Soldier Field to a sell-out crowd of 61,500 and it was shown live on NBC. Did anyone watch? What were your impressions? Just remember the USA are ranked 18 in the world and New Zealand number 1.

That was entertaining.

Those dudes are huge! What a cool sport. I wish we saw more of it in North America.

I was going to post the whole match but currently the only recordings I can find have "echoing" audio.

There is apparently going to be a professional Rugby Union league in the US starting summer 2015. Of course I don't ever see rugby becoming hugely popular in the US but it is a fantastic sport(my personal favourite). Anyone wanting to experience more should try international matches between the major rugby nations -

England
France
Ireland
Italy
Scotland
Wales
Argentina
Australia
New Zealand
South Africa

I very much prefer Rugby over American Football. Its a much more intelligent sport with no huge helmets/padding so there is much less goonery. Its also very fast with fluid passing.

Unfortunately we dont see much quality Rugby on TV (here in Canada anyway).
