World Championship of Rugball - RP, Rosters & Scores Thread.

Bostopia
06-10-2008, 00:00
Welcome to Bostopia, and the World Championship of Rugball!

In this thread you will find rosters, RPs and scores from all the games in the upcoming World Championship tournament. The group draw will be made tomorrow (Monday) and posted here, along with the venues of all the games, with the tournament's first scores coming on Wednesday.

Unfortunately for personal reasons there will be no scores on Friday or Saturday.

There are no style modifiers, and it is recommended you make a short statement on what controls your opponent has on RP'ing should they RP first (injuries (& length of), sendings off, other random events, deciding point-scorers and such like.

Have fun, and the Confederation of Rugball Associations in association with the tournaments hosts, the Rugball Association of Bostopia, wish you all the best of luck!

RP: pointscorers will probaly be anywhere from the backline (10-15, as they are arguably the finest backline in the world in rugby union, but everyone else will score on average 1 in 6 times. injuries are uncommon, due to our high level of fitness. sendoffs are common for our 1-5, excluding our #2, because they love punchups!:p

NEWSFLASH!
as reported by the Freeland Bugle
"a total of 150 million Kjomasasopians hhave made the pilgrimage to Bostopia to support thier squad. expectations are high for the Spiders, who are arguably the best rugby union nation in the world, and definately the worlds finest in rugby league"

Steff Jelling: “...That was live action from the national angling championship, and we'll head back to that as soon as anything happens. Now though we welcome a special guest onto the show, please welcome to SNTV Sports Saturday on this Wednesday night, Mick McGlinchy, manager of the Sorthern Northland national rugball team.”

Mick McGlinchy: “'Allo all, pleasure to be here and all that.”

SJ: “Great to have you on the show. So what is rugball?”

MM: “.....Rugball?”

SJ: “Yes.”

MM: “...No idea to be honest, should I know?”

SJ: “Well you are manager of the national rugball team, I would have thought it would be helpful to know what it is?”

MM: “Oh am I? I though I was manager of the nation Gaelic Football team. Thought it was a bit strange Bostopia hosting a Gaelic Football tournament when they don't play the sport.”

SJ: “Well seeing as you clearly have no idea what the sport you're going to Bostopia to compete is, I take it Sorthern Northland can rule ourselves out of winning it.”

MM: “Oh not at all Steff. I've just remembered, rugball is sort of like Gaelic Football and we've basically taken a load of failed Gaelic Footballers to the competition. Other nations seem to have a much worse understanding of what the sport it. Kjomasasopia for example seem to think it's rugby and have sent their rugby squad along, whilst I hear Yafor 2 are sending some female tennis players and the Hans are sending martial arts experts.”

SJ: “Right so we can do well then?”

MM: “Certainly, the top four from each group of six go through so reaching the knock out stages should be a piece of piss.”

SJ: “Speaking of piss, is it true that you've prepared the team for the competition by taking them on a number of massive piss ups.”

MM: “Absolutely, we're representing Sorthern Northland here remember and it's vital that even if we do shit in the 'rugball' it's imperative that we can all get absolutely wankered.”

SJ: “Er sounds like a faultless plan. Now..... hold on, I think something has happened at the national angling championship, we go over to Kepa Semaro for more, Kepa.”

KS: “Unbelivable Steff. HAHAHAHA! It's incredible, a bloke just stuck a maggot on his hook and nearly got a bite. Looked like he had, the float wobbled around a bit but it was just a current or something. Unbelivable.”

SJ: “Thanks for that Kepa, so Mick you've no idea what rugball is, have the players?”

MM: “Well not really, most of them have just been running around like idiots on the training field. And those that weren't were on the side of the pitch throwing up, obviously unable to cope with the pre-training benders.”

SJ: “I see, well lots for Sorthern rugball fans to be hopeful for then, thanks for your time Mick.”

MM: “No problem, Steff. Oh and how do I get out of here?”

SJ: “Through that big door that says, “Exit” above it.”

MM: “Oh right, thanks.”

AND THESE SOUNDS FLOWED FOR WHAT SEEMED LIKE FOREVER FROM THE KJO LOCKER ROOMS:

"We come from the kj and o, where the mountains meet the sea
its a land where men play rugball, and we strive for victory
yes, we represent our land beacuase we are the best youll see!
We are from the kj and o, and we strive for victory!

Today we played septentrionie, what a sorry side they were!
We left them torn and tattered as we claimed our victory!
For we represent our land because we are the best youll see!
We are from the kj and o, and we strive for victory!"

Chairman: So what are we supposed to do?

Treasurer: I don't know. What does the charter say?

Chairman: *murmurs* It says something about fielding a team of martial arts experts to go play "grassball". And we're going to go to Bostopia.

Treasurer: Hmmm, that's going to be a little expensive. Where are we going to find a team of martial arts to kick a ball of grass?

Chairman: Uh, I don't think they're going to be kicking a ball of grass.

Treasurer: Well, then throwing it.

Chairman: The ball isn't made of grass.

Treasurer: So they're going to kick a ball? What kind of ball? What kind of sport is this?

Chairman: It's Bostopian, for one.

Treasurer: So??? What, is this some 'go find the tanks and nukes' sport?

Chairman: That was just a documentary, and besides that, we don't need tanks or nukes to beat the Bostopians.

Treasurer: Not that they don't have tons of those stuff anyway.

Chairman: Alright, well, we still need to find and send a team, to play something.

Treasurer: When is the deadline?

Chairman: What do you mean 'deadline'?

Treasurer: When are the games starting?

Chairman: They started two days ago.

Treasurer: WHAT???

Secretary: *comes in with tea* You guys sound a bit up-tight.

Chairman: Up-tight?

Treasurer: We need to send a team to Bostopia to play some sport which doesn't make sense! Not only do they not make any sense, there's no official rule book on what the players use to play!

Secretary: Oh, relax. I sent a team, and I found the rule-book online. Apparently, it's just football with a weird oblong ball and no shoes.

Treasurer: Oh, well that's all fine and dandy, but... WHO THE HECK DID YOU SEND?

*a bunch of crickets assemble ready to play against Bostopia*

Cricket: *chirp chirp chirp*!

Crickets: *chirp chirp*!!

Cricket: *chirp chirp chirp*!

Crickets: *chirp chirp*!! ...

Cricket pointing behind the main Cricket: *CHIRP*!

Cricket: *chirp*? -gets squashed by rugball-

Crickets: *chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp chirp*!! - pick up the ball-

Cricket: *c-h-i-r-p* ...

=== HQ ===

Treasurer: You sent a team of CRICKETS? To the land of CRICKET-EATERS?

Secretary: Relax, you guys.

Chairman: You guys? How am I getting implicated in this?

Secretary: Hey, I said relax. I mean, they lost a little game against Sorthern Northland, but apparently, the cricket-eaters don't play very well at their own sport.

Treasurer: Oh... wow... that's... impressive, I suppose...

Secretary: Don't worry. Everything's under hand. *leaves with tea*

Treasurer: *thinks for a moment* Wait! How'd you pay for the tickets?
