When do tickets go on sale?
Mrs Boo reckons we're going.
Will make sure we're there for the pool matches ... and see how flexible we can be during the knockouts ...
Collective thoughts on tours, touring parties, independent travel etc appreciated.
(Yes I'm deflecting, I don't want to dwell on the aftermath.)

If you can get tickets to the games you want to see through the ballot I would do the tour independently as you will have more flexibility to visit where you want between games. That is what my friends and I did in 2007, and it should be cheaper.
The TGV/train network is great to travel between cities, and you can organise your own accommodation.
Tours like Williment Travel will take a lot of the hassle away so it depends on what you want from the experience. I'll never forget seeing many from their tour group walking around Paris after the QF in their adidas tour kit looking like they wanted to be somewhere else. We all ended up at a bar watching the NPC final live.
It's much better to be incognito.

It was good to see us keeping our powder dry for this one last night. The pricks aren't going to know what hit them.

I see France winning this and us getting knocked out by Ireland.

Must be time for the TSF tour '23.
that could be good fun. Wonder how many pubs we'd be banned from
@Godder @nzzp Reckon I could be up for that if you could stomach hanging about with a Saffer.
I know @Snowy is boycotting travelling to RWC games anymore, but I'm sure I can tempt him out of retirement if he feels his liver is strong enough for one last hurrah with me

That's the problem, weeks in France with good (and cheap) wine my liver may well decide it is a final hurrah.
That and the fact that the ABs will lose if I go.It is tempting though. Hmmm.

He's an old school rugby dude, would be funny as shit to be on tour with. Also tempted to drag one or both boys along ... well, for festival rugby group stages. After that it's all pressure, pain and heartbreak -- kind of like working

So they're doing the draw even earlier this time. What the actual fuck? Three years early??
World Rugby have just put added pressure on teams to improve their results in 2020
The rankings system has regularly come in for criticism but it has now assumed even sharper importance for countries in this calendar year.
World Rankings race begins for RWC 2023 Pool Draw
World Rugby and the France 2023 Organising Committee have confirmed that the Rugby World Cup 2023 Pool Draw will take place in Paris after the November 2020 international window.
