Good rugby is about competition and intensity not just try fests...!
The two best games so far in this world cup have not been high scoring try vests but intense matches between two highly competitive teams.
The best thing about this world cup will be that there are so many teams so close to each other in ability.
Close games is what rugby is about, the more competitive games the better. Let's hope that the IRB see this and do their best to help the minnows of international rugby improve to increase the amount of top competitive teams.

The game against Georgia was very intense, the probably for the wrong reasons for Scottish fans.RuggerRadge2611 wrote:Us Scots have been saying this for years

The best game of the RWC so far had no tries.
Something to remember the next tome England squeak through in a penalty fest

I love a good close match. Its been a week but i still feel for the Welsh fans, that was some game to lose by 1 point. I even thought that Wales were the better team on the day.
Ireland - Australia today was no try fest but it was an incredibly compelling match to watch.

I have been saying this since forever, if two teams are in each others faces, there are few opportunities to run around like duracel bunnies on crack.
Any test is awesome to watch, except for those lopsided affairs that brings up 100 points in a match.
