England Vs Chile: England inspects other sides with RWC on the horizon

Posted by World Wide Tickets And Hospitality on July 14th, 2023

Kevin Sinfield has worried about the status of learning England’s southern hemisphere counterparts, with New Zealand hosting South Africa in a hit clash on Saturday but the defence trainer insists he does not care who his side face at the Rugby World Cup 2023. England is widely measured to be on the easier side of the draw, in the opposite half to France, New Zealand, Ireland and South Africa the top four sides in the world and would avoid those teams until the semi-finals.

Last weekend’s opening games of the Rugby Championship only decorated the gap, with New Zealand thumping Argentina, who are in England’s pool, and South Africa beating Eddie Jones’s Australia potential RWC quarter-final rivals for Steve Borthwick’s side. On Saturday the All Blacks host the Springboks and Australia’s game against Argentina is very much the undercard to the main event in Auckland, despite it being Jones’s return.

England RWC trainers had studied Rugby Championship games

Sinfield said England’s trainers had examined last weekend’s Rugby Championship games as well as a match between a Japan XV and an All Blacks XV in Tokyo last Saturday. But asked about the England Rugby World Cup team’s luck with the draw, he said, honestly, I’m not worried at all who we play or what the draw is. We’ll get the top out of this team. Whomever we have to face, we have to face, each time that is.

This administration team and our players have had nothing to do with the RWC 2023 draw. We can only do what we can do and we spend all our time trying to make us improved each day. What will be will be. You would assume us to be studying. We all watch the games; they were two fantastic games and I would also add that the Japan game against New Zealand was a game we looked at.

At the forefront of our minds at the minute are the players we have got here and trying to guarantee we prepare them as best we can so they are ready to go. But also, whilst there is a chance there are some good global games taking place with some fantastic players, with some teams that we could face at some stage at France Rugby World Cup it is vital to have a look at them.

Rugby World Cup 2023: Debut for Chile Rugby team

Chile is set to make their RWC entrance this year, after qualifying for the first time in their past. Los Condores have been drawn into Pool D, and are set to take the contest to England on Saturday 23rd September. Any World Cup newcomer brings an added spark of the unknown to the competition. A fresh face in a packed sea of global rugby’s biggest stars, Chile is the 22nd graded side in the World Rugby rankings.

They enter their first Rugby World Cup ranked lower than two sides who failed to qualify for the competition USA and Spain. Chile’s Head Coach is former Uruguay global prop Pablo Lemoine, who has previously taken coaching roles with his nation, as well as with the German national side. Lemoine’s on-field career saw him signify Bristol, before spending the majority of his career in France with Stade Francais, Montauban and Avenir Valencien.

Chile was last in the World Rugby limelight, as fly-half Rodrigo Fernandez received the award for Men’s Try of the Year. His remarkable solo try against the United States was crucial in locking Chile their RWC 2023 spot, and he did so in the most driving circumstances.

Chile’s Road to the France Rugby World Cup 2023

Spain #20 and the USA #18 are seeded higher in the grades than Chile, yet failed to make it to France. Chile’s road to RWC 2023 Qualification was full of firsts, with their trip starting on the 3rd of July 2021. An anticlimactic start saw Round 1 of the South American Qualifiers start with Chile rolling over a forfeiting Columbia, due to Covid cases in the Columbian side. Round 2 saw Chile planted in a pool of three, along with Brazil and Uruguay to determine the winners of the 2021 South American Championship.

Chile recorded an inspiring 23-13 win over Brazil, through two tries from hooker Augusto Bohme, and the rest of the points came via the boots of Rodrigo Fernandez and Francisco Urroz. The Chileans then suffered a troubling setback, as Uruguay won 15-10 in their second game of the group. However, Los Condores were spared purging, as Uruguay’s 36-13 win over Brazil gave Chile a lifeline.

Uruguay advanced as the winners of the South American Championship, and secured their spot in the France Rugby World Cup as the Americas 1 seed, following a two-legged play-off victory over the USA. Chile advanced to the Americas 2 Repechage round, for a home and away series with Canada. The first game saw Chile takes a hard initial defeat, as Canada edged a 22-21 victory in British Columbia.

Chile Rugby World Cup squad beat Canada

Yet with such a narrow total deficit, it was all to play for in the second game, with Chile exploiting the home-field advantage. Fly-half Santiago Videla Cambiaso had a featuring role, as he counted a try and kicked 18 points for a healthy points tally. The extra Chilean tries from Rodriguez and prop Mattius Dittus, well-known too much daylight for the Canadians, and an ultimate 33-24 triumph.

Chile Rugby World Cup team had beaten Canada for the first time in their history, with the win coming in their ninth try against the North Americans. This historic Chilean victory took them into the Americas 2 Qualifier, with a spot at the World Cup on the line. An unbelievable two-legged contest against the United States saw the 52-51 overall total score parted by just one point.

Chile RWC side once again took a 22-21 first-leg defeat to North American opposition, awarding a mirror image of their initial loss to Canada. However, Los Condores again rose to the event in the second leg, for a dramatic 31-29 victory over the USA who were led by Bristol fly-half AJ MacGinty. Chile closed the win with just five minutes lasting, as Santiago Videla Cambiaso kicked his side to glory from the tee.

Chile Rugby World Cup team and important players

The majority of the Chilean national team represents Santiago-based club Selknam, in the Super Rugby Americas rivalry Super Liga Americana de Rugby. Selknam competes in the Super Rugby branded league against club sides from Argentina, Brazil, Paraguay, Uruguay and the USA. Chile’s captain is flanker Martín Sigren. He played for Selknam in 2020-2022 before moving to Doncaster Knights in the RFU Championship.

Prop Matías Dittus left Selknam for Club Atlantique Perigueux in France’s Pro Rugby D2. Center Inaki Ayarza also plays in the Pro D2 for Soyaux Angouleme XV, and lock Pablo Huete used to play for Bayonne in the French Top 14, before linking Selknam. The 46-man roster also includes players who missed Super Rugby Americas 2023 through injury. Both second-rower Augusto Sarmiento and winger Franco Velarde have stunned injuries to have been called into Lemoine’s squad.

There are also some open contenders in the Chilean squad, with goals of making their national 15s team test game debut before the group is clipped down for the Rugby World Cup 2023. They include front-rowers Jorge Delgado and Esteban Inostroza, flanker Santiago Edwards, scrum-half Benjamín Videla, fly-half Diego Warnken, centre Clemente Armstrong, and winger Gaspar Moltedo.
