Great stuff guys! Well done!
Well done team Bermuda..Maybe that’s where the money should be spent. Not on cricket and football those to are hopeless. No money in the world will change that fact.
Dumb comment. You are actually comparing rugby to the worlds #1 sport? I will say it again… Dumb comment.
All sports deserve support. Lets not have one sport attacking the other.
Well done boys.
Great job Bermuda. All the best versus Guyana.
Fantastic result! Shame there was no live streaming. We were getting anxious with the slow updates! Do not envy the boys playing in that heat and humidity. Really looking forward to the game against Guyana. They will be a tough nut to crack after beating Trinidad and Tobago 22-0.
Well done again. Bermuda can be very proud of its rugby team.
Great. I hope the final is in Bermuda!!
Good Stuff Bermuda! Special congratulations to Jahan for the Only Try! I agree with “Bermuda is Another World”!
