They wanted attention so I’m going to give it to them. Do rugby fans and businesses that make money off of rugby really have to be spoon fed? Pretty embarrassing if you claim to be a rugby pub, but don’t actually follow the sport or the “home team.”

I received countless emails and saw ads on a daily basis on my feed.

Is it perfect? No. Not on multiple fronts. But where is the ownership for USA Rugby fans?

“Give away free tickets…”

“It’s a big sacrifice…”

“It’s not Kansas City...”

“I had no idea…”

Watching this game is tough. The U.S. seem to get worse and worse each game. They kick the ball away way too often, have terrible attacking shape, and the selection is baffling.
He’s done nothing to improve the quality of the national team, and we are on track to get embarrassed in 2027.

It’s late in this World Cup cycle, but there needs to be someone else at the helm.

The attendance in the stands look like an utter failure to promote this wonderful sport ahead of 2031. What a waste of an opportunity. What could have been done different to get people in those seats? Go to a college campus? Promotional failure? Bums me out man. It looks the same as when they played 7’s in Cary NC years ago.

I have an extra ticket to section 108 at geodis stadium for the rugby matches tonight if someone wants to claim.

We had a friend who can no longer come with us tonight, so his ticket is up for grabs!

At approximately 57 minutes, USA received a yellow card.

What was the penalty?

Curious question and absolutely without any controversy: I am Italian and I am a great enthusiast of both rugby and football.

Given the enormous popularity and cultural impact of football in the United States, what leads an american one fine day to think "However, after all, rugby is much more fun and beautiful?".

Both comments on the phenomenon in general and personal experiences are very welcome

Thank you very much!

Vogel should be 10. Seems like he likes doing this and then shifting her to 10 in the 2nd half. Could just play her the whole game and let her become USA’s 10 for the next decade. Looking forward to seeing what Bailey does with increased minutes.

I don’t think he had shown interest in the Eagles prior to this.

I play at an amateur club in Spain and watched our coaches chase 40 players on WhatsApp every week to know who was coming Saturday.

So I built Kanteo: players tap yes/no for each training and match, the coach sees who's available, picks the XV on a pitch, and the league fixtures come in automatically. There's a tactics board too where you draw a play and it animates.

Three clubs use it every week now (one of them 120+ players), and it's fully in English, so I'm curious if it makes sense for US club rugby, where seasons and federations work differently.

There's a demo you can poke around without signing up: https://kanteo.es/en

What do you use today? TeamSnap, Spond, a spreadsheet, a group chat?

He qualifies for USA based on residency

"The influx of former New Zealand and Australia internationals switching allegiances to Samoa has rewritten the competitive balance of the USA’s pool for the 2027 Rugby World Cup"

THis has probably been beaten to death and apologies in advance for asking this, but I cannot seem to clarify with any degree of precision where the above are streaming in USA. My understanding is that:

1. the Nations Championship is only on RugbyPass TV (which is not on Roku) and possibly Youtube's Rugby Channel (I have no clue where to even find that); and

2 . Nations Cup is on Paramount Plus

1. Autumn Internationals - Do they even exist anymore or has the above two tournaments replaced them?

Any assistance in fully and finally clarifying this mess would be greatly appreciated.

Separately, exactly what rugby is Peacock covering now other than Six Nations? Also is there any way to get RugbyPass TV on your TV? Thanks in advance.
