Great isn't it!!

Fantastic. Love that male, female,, disabled and others can play it. Loved a question earlier when asked if they are aiming for the paralympics they said no we aim for THE Olympics as the most inclusive sport around.

It is brutal though. People and chairs flying over each other.

No Eddie Jones  -   and England's winning as well.  Murderball is worse.

I have seen videos of car crashes where a car hits a bicycle to be less brutal than that game. It is insane.

Watching France v Australia  and the Aussies are being rather heavy with crashes. Brutal

England 86. Wales 12.  50 minutes played.  At last ....  all these years ....  an England Rugby team that I can cheer for!!!!!!  But France could be a harder win.  Come on England.   Score now 96 - 12

Now that was a very hard dirty match. Well done!

That French linesman was so unbelievably biased. The game needs a TMO.

One query.  Are they short of linesmen/women?  If not, why was one of the linesmen who is/was French officiating at a French-involved match?  He was no advert  for fairness or gamesmanship.

Yes and he appeared to be very even handed.
