RU World Cup should be 32 teams

[Feicarsinn]

What people fail to consider with a 24 team RWC is that if you have 6 pools of 4, you end up with 36 matches in the initial pool stage as opposed to 40 under the current format. This allows you to have more matches between the top teams later on. My proposal would add 8 games overall but with 4 fewer first round matches and 12 extra matches between the top 12 teams in the world. This would both make more money and be better for the fans.

And it makes the group stages even more pointless. How will the tournament generate buzz when the top teams are guaranteed passage? There are barely two decent matches per group as things stand, your proposal brings that down to 1.

How about we just give New Zealand the cup and call the whole thing off?

Have you figured out it doesn't add 4 games yet or have you actually thought it through this time?

Ah right, I forgot that I'm dealing with Isaac Newton here. How about you deal with the question asked as opposed to trying to shrugging it off by going on about a mistake I made?

Nah, they only won because we spiked the wrong food with rattex. We'll get it right again 2015.

I thought it was lead in the water.
Would explain the behaviour of the Samoans...

Admission of guilt, FINALLY! I'm taking this to the court of New Zealand.

Sker, don't go anywhere, you're going to get arrested and be our star witness against SA.


:lol:

You don't have to be a genius to do basic math. Either you're a moron who can't add and multiply or you don't actually think before responding. Either way, you clearly can't be reasoned with and deserve only scorn and derision.

You're right Feic deserves nothing more than scorn or Derision , he does not even come on the sesh.

And I think you're barking up the wrong tree questioning his mathematical ability...he might be a bit thick but he's grand at maths...you know what with studying Physics and that ****

Perhaps in that case it may be the latter. Regardless, not worth taking him seriously.

you're bagging him for not doing your maths but you wont answer his question?

the "court of New Zealand"? coughnotarealthingcough


....International War Crimes Tribunal more like it!

Yeah, he was only voted the best poster on the forum last year...

To put that into perspective, he bet legends such as TRF_nickdnz who only won Best Southern Hemisphere Poster...

Now stop having a go and actually respond to his points, rather than attacking his character.

Dick head.

Again, why should I seriously respond to his post when he refuses to offer the same courtesy to me?

What response do you want? You put out a suggestion for a format, I said that it would effectively kill the group stages as a meaningful part of the competition. Instead of answering that question, you tried to divert attention away from that by going back on a mistake I admittedly made earlier.

But it's cool, do as you will.

 

[norcalbuff]

Admittedly? You mean when I asked you about it originally and you ignored it?
