I think rugby hasn't been an olympic sport since 1924........so that would be my guess.

It's my poor attempt at humor. Rugby hasn't been played at the olympics since 1924 so that makes the USA the 'current' champions until the next medal is awarded in 2016 .

I just thought that as this is a Russian forum the mods might have a passing interest in tonight's match- and watching the rugby is interfering with the time i have to play COD

Rugby tragic here

Should be an interesting match - 19th v 18th according to IRB rankings. The US is ranked 18th.

In my perverse mind I was actually hoping that the game was played at Invercargill (southern tip of the south Island - closest point in NZ to Antartica). Invercargill is very cold and the likelyhood of a frozen pitch is quite high, so the USA and Russia could swap their rugby boots for ice skates and reprise there Ice Hockey battles.

Good game- low scoring but hard fought. USA won but did it tough.
Russia lacking a good scrum half but have some talent in their squad. As for their kicker.... lucky for him the gulag is no longer used!

Unfortunately I'm at work and haven't had a chance to watch the game. I didn't even know the Russians played rugby. Just for that fact, I was quite interested in watching this game.
