The Road to Russia - World Cup Qualifying 2018

Apologies, freydrew...as far as I am concerned Rugby is the beautiful game rather than Football (or Soccer as it is know over the Pond)...so the answer is 'No' from me. ;)
 
But hope that you enjoy!
 
Regards, Baldrick

Fair enough. We have a local professional rugby team in Denver. I've never been. Maybe I should try it sometime?

Judging by the title of this thread I wasn't sure if this was about Socceer/Football or the President's vision for the future of America. 😛

Rugby is a great game...as far as I am concerned...and I know that the US fields a team in the Rugby World Cup.
 
Personally, if you want to see it at its best then try to catch a game on TV which involves the New Zealand All Blacks. ;) Well recommended.

@ I'll have to try and catch an All Black game. I've heard that they're impressive to watch. Absolutely insane amount of intensity. 

Yes, there are the No. 1 side in the World and the side to beat. As for intensity I have to say that I think that same of American Football...as and when I occassionally catch some highlights.
 
To me Rugby seems more ordered...but then again I am sure that this is the same for any untutored eye (and mine certainly is when it comes to American Football...;)).

American football is pretty fun to watch but I prefer soccer if I had to pick. 

I prefer soccer to American Football but saying that the only time I watch soccer is in the latter stages of big tournaments like the World Cup. I watched quite a bit of the Rugby Six Nations recently and thoroughly enjoyed it.
Yes I agree Baldrick, The All Blacks are great fun to watch, they certainly seem to liven things up especially with that dance they do - sorry I cannot remember the name of it right now.

WOW!

Thank you @ that is the one, fantastic to watch

Hi freydrew
 
Well I guess you can count me as a footie fan but, as an England supporter, I find it hard to get enthused about the World Cup finals these days, never mind the qualifiers!
 
Having said that I'll probably watch the Lithuania game on TV. Here's a touching story about the mascot for the game.
 
Good luck tonight. :D

Thanks @, we're going to need it.

I really love football , like my nicolai jorgenssen avatar suggests 🙂 I sometimes watch the dutch team , but their results are not too great the last few years. I am more excited for the match battle between feyenoord ( my favorite team ) and those 020 boys ( ajax ) and arch rivals to decide the dutch competition this year. if feyenoord winns we have a big chance of becomming champion of the dutch competerion this year....very , very much needed : the last time whe where champion dates back till 1999 😞

I'm just as surprised as you. I wasn't expecting that at all, whatsoever. Wow! Let's see how they do tomorrow against Panama in Panama.

They had a pretty tough weekend. Blind got the boot too. Yikes. 
 
I wonder who will step in and take over...
 
When will Feyenoord play Ajax? Is that coming up? That would be a fun one to watch. 

feyenoord will be playing ajax this weekend on sunday 🙂
