| 1387506 | 2014-11-01 23:29:00 | It was certainly entertaining, just a pity the Eagles didn't get a try for the benefit of the crowd. :) | Webdevguy (17166) | ||
| 1387507 | 2014-11-02 00:34:00 | If the score ratio were reversed, it would read like a Black Caps result. :) | R2x1 (4628) | ||
| 1387508 | 2014-11-02 06:04:00 | It was certainly entertaining, just a pity the Eagles didn't get a try for the benefit of the crowd. :) The AB's could have at least given them one " just for the hell of it" :) | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 1387509 | 2014-11-02 06:40:00 | Match fixing? Not cricket, old chap ... :D Seriously, I'd have welcomed a better showing from the Eagles. I subscribe to the view that get the level of interest in Rugby up in the US, and access to the vast infrastructure and finance that would follow on must benefit the code enormously. Look what happened to Soccer there ... |

| 1387510 | 2014-11-02 20:58:00 | Rugby in the US, nope it wont take off. Think about it, if as a teen you played sport as a teen in the US, would you play the popular US sports that get all the attention & the huuuge wages for the Pro's if you can make it. And possibly college sponsorship. or the worldwide no1 :soccer with huge paypackets for top stars or some unkown sport like rugby. :-) |

| 1387511 | 2014-11-02 21:57:00 | I read somewhere recently that rugby is the fastest growing sport in America | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1387512 | 2014-11-02 22:01:00 | I also heard that the top US sports guys individually get more than dosh than all the All Blacks put together. Ken :illogical |

The UK is already attracting NFL teams to play in Twickenham on a weekly basis as part of an extension to the NFL schedule so expanding the 6 nations would be totally possible. |
