Romania fan view: A defensive bonus point or a close defeat would be legendary

The perspective of a Romanian rugby fan might not be easy to understand for an Irishman. 

After all, why even bother supporting a team that could end up losing all its matches at the Rugby World Cup, with some potential heavy defeats along the way?

First of all, these matches are a rare opportunity that Romania only gets once every four years. Due to the closed nature of international rugby, we rarely play any tests against Tier 1 teams. In fact, the last time it happened was back in 2006.
