Will there be an EA Sports Rugby 2009? I know this question has been asked before but is there any new or solid evidence of Rugby 09?

No

I’m asking this question because I’m interested in playing club rugby but I am short sighted which requires me to wear glasses.

Would it possible to get a special exemption from the proper club rugby administrators? I originally asked the optometrist for contact lenses but I was told that glasses would be more suitable.

This is a serious question. If I can’t wear any prescription glasses then I’ll have tell the club about my eye sight and hope that I’d still be able to join.

You might have to get contact lenses or something champ because there is absolutely no way that they would let you wear glasses.

p.s. how is he a nerd when he wants to play rugby, the most unnerdy sport of all, how the hell does glasses make you nerdy.clowns

The game started with a number of penalties as the player settled into the game. Live rugby report here…

Mils Muliaina scored the first try at around the 14 minute mark, converted by Daniel Carter. The ball was passed along the back line out to Mils the All Black full back coming on the outside of the backline.

Score 7-0 to the All Blacks.

At 19min 54sec the Aussie back line went into action and looked set for a try. A dropped ball put a stop to that. A penalty by Matt Giteau in the 22min for the Wallabies.

Score 7-3 to the All Blacks.

At 29 minutes the Wallabies are having a good period on attack. We have not seen much of the All Blacks on attack.

33 minutes and the All Blacks have only had 41% possession. Possession and territory are favouring Australia, despite the score favouring the New Zealand.

Right before half time after going wide, a pass back into Stirling Mortlock and the Wallabies go over for a try. The try is converted by Giteau.

So the half time score is Wallabies 10 – All Blacks 7.

Just into the second half and Matt Giteau goes over for a try which he converts.

Score is Wallabies 17 – All Blacks 7

This wakes up the All Blacks and they reply with Tony Woodcock, the All Black prop, going over for a try in the corner. Carter converts – what a great kick from a difficult position!

Score is now Wallabies 17 – All Blacks 14

Piri Weepu, the All Black replacement halfback, goes over for a try in the 63rd minute which is converted by Dan Carter.

Score is now All Blacks 21- Wallabies 17

What a game!

We are in the 67th minute and the All Blacks pass the ball out to Daniel Carter he ducks a tackle and goes round over the line brings the ball round towards the posts for a touchdown. Carter follows it up by converting his own try.

Score now All Blacks 28 – Wallabies 17

Five minutes to go and the Australians are on the attack. New Zealand get a scrum 5-6 metres from their line.  They need to clear this ball.  Play goes on the Aussies win a scrum with less than 3 minutes to go…

Cross, the Australian centre puts the ball over the line and the referee goes upstairs for a decision.  The try is awarded and Giteau converts.

Score is now All Blacks 28 – Wallabies 24

Two minutes left…one minute…the All Blacks play with the rucks.  Wallabies clear the ball, they get a penalty.  All Blacks get the ball and kick it out.

Final Score All Blacks 28 to Wallabies 24

WHAT A GAME!
