Welcome to the Drawing Board, Who’s Playing Who?’s one stop rugby shop. Not long now until the rugby World Cup starts and already the first couple of teams have started to arrive.

Welcome to the Drawing Board, Who’s Playing Who?’s one stop rugby shop.

Some are resting players, others are playing their top sides, and some are not even playing at all.

Firstly though, here are some interesting Rugby World Cup stats. Read more…
The Punt #9
We’ve had another winner, with David’s conservative approach earning a small amount of cash to bring himself away from the bottom on the ladder. Adrian is still out on top by a fair distance. The Phantom has nearly squandered his earnings, and another bad week will see him back in negative territory for the first time in many weeks. After coming close to clearing his debt last week, Tomo is starting to slip again, while Matt is still without a win. Is this the week for him to win some cash? Read on to find out who he and the rest of the crew are backing. Read more…
