Never say never - I watched it for the first time with an open mind just last week.

Rugby looks interesting, and the North Americans look uncomfortable playing the game, with no lateral mobility, poor acceleration, poor teamwork, and few ideas.

The World Cup game yesterday was so good, with such amazing skills on display, that it has made the whole tournament worthwhile.

Try spending five minutes with a soccer ball to understand the speed, balance, agility, conditioning, strength and creativity you are exposed to in World Cup action. Amazing.
