Does Spain even have a national team? Go Spain. Go Wales!
Spain does have a national team. They're currently no. 25 in the world. _________________ Toe ek jonk was, het ek al die antwoorde geken. Nou verstaan ek nie eens die vrae nie.
Well I just have a habit for rooting for the fatherlands, lol. That's why I asked.
Nothing wrong with that! You're better off rooting for Wales than for Spain, though. Wales is no. 8... _________________ Toe ek jonk was, het ek al die antwoorde geken. Nou verstaan ek nie eens die vrae nie.
Rugby union is also the most popular team sport in Wales. Even piped football in the popularity league which is saying quite a bit in otherwise soccer-mad Britain. _________________ Hillary Clinton is an acquired taste which I have clearly yet to acquire.

For sure!
And I think they will be very strong in the future!
I know it because I live to quoted and exactly if the Spain becomes a big rugby country will be himself thanks to the contribution of the ideas coming from the north, to the Basque country, because the French Basque country has a real passion for this sport, and the BO big team of europe, dispute its match in San Sebastian (Anoeta stadium, Real Sociedad) because the stadium of Biarritz is too small, so the Spanish Basques are interested more and more in the rugby...
Los Leones, Adelante!
No hace falta olvidar que los argentinos sean entre los mejor de los equipos de rugby.
I was watching the post-match interview given by Phil Vickery, the English skipper who looked like his heart had skipped a beat or two when he had to face the hoard of rabidly angry English journalists at the press conference. I must say I pitied the bloke - he looked shellshocked.
I didn't watch any of the recent matches, but France did well. She has come from behind in the latest two games to prevail now; at this rate, she is going to achieve another grand slam.
PS: I am shocked the Pumas are above England. Is this a permanent shakeup of the world order? _________________ Hillary Clinton is an acquired taste which I have clearly yet to acquire.
4(5) Ranking Climber SOUTH AFRICA 84.71

When is the next Franco-South-African match due ?
That would be in the final of the World Cup, of course... _________________ Toe ek jonk was, het ek al die antwoorde geken. Nou verstaan ek nie eens die vrae nie.
Kimberley - A try by fullback Zane Kirchner two minutes after the siren sounded has sensationally given the Griquas a third Vodacom Cup title with a 33-29 victory over the Blue Bulls in a gripping final.

Griquas - Tries: MJ Mentz, Dean Hopp, Heinrich Stride, Zane Kirchner. Conversions: Conrad Barnard (2). Penalties: Barnard (3).

And FOUR tries to TWO... that's justice... the right team won!!! _________________ Toe ek jonk was, het ek al die antwoorde geken. Nou verstaan ek nie eens die vrae nie.
Not only are TWO South African teams going through to the Super 14 semi finals, they took the two top positions on the log.
The Sharks (from Durban) secured top position by beating the Stormers (Cape Town) today. The Blue Bulls (Pretoria) had a difficult task. A victory with four tries (meaning a bonus point) would have placed them on par with the Crusaders and the Auckland Blues on 42 points each. But the Bulls had the lowest points average of the three teams, which would officially placed them in fourth position. They had the mammoth task of beating the Reds by at least 72 points to secure second place (and a home semi final). They did more than that.... they won by 92-3!! (Shame, I always feel sorry for a team which loses like that.)
So two teams in the semi finals, and a good change of an all-SA final! That bodes well for the World Cup.
This is turning into a good season for me! Yesterday my favourite team, Griquas, won the Vodacom Cup for the third time. And my old school is currently placed 11th on the list of top rugby schools in the country, their best position ever.
