Re: Time for RWC to add a Bowl, Plate and Shield ?
You could have the 4 third placed sides playoff but not sure why. Yes you could add the fourth placed sides but would any win against the third placed? No real point including the fifth placed teams. You could have it as the winner gets automatic qualification and the other need to go through quali...

Re: Who Was The Biggest At Their Peak, Elvis, The Beatles Or Michael Jackson?
The Beatles were bigger than Elvis and way bigger by miles than MJ. I’m a fan of all 3 but holding positions 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 on the American Billboard charts at the same time was something Elvis and MJ could not get close to. Beatlemania in 1963-64 was on another planet. Shit, when the Beatles visi...

For me, it’s always will be Richard Lowe’s elbow to Paul Carrozza’s nose as he was laying on the ground after scoring in the ‘92 Bledisloe. Destroyed his face. A purely thuggish act. James Lowe? Richard Loe https://www.reddit.com/r/rugbyunion/comments/fp56aq/richard_loe_vs_paul_carozzas_nose_1992/

Re: Internet good or bad.
There was a decent balance before phones got so powerful. So, somewhere around 2000-2005 was the sweet spot.

Re: Rennie axed.
. I don’t know how I feel about it. Despite the results, I felt that Rennie had the Wallabies going in the right direction and was a major dark horse for the RWC. I like Jones as a coach and he has the experience, plus he has a lot to prove, especially to England.
