    Gulf, the other one is a bit boring.

    Gulf

    The French didn't have the thinking cap on to design their flag

    Wallis and Fortuna - Like the name and ya can't go far wrong with a Maltese Cross

    Gulf.

    The other one looks like a normal enough flag that some French nationalist/football hooligan/vandal has just plastered a sticker on to.

    Howland, Baker, and Jarvis Islands is the most flag like, so that gets my vote, but I kind of like Midway Atoll too :D

    Our line up for Round 2 is complete. Took a little longer than expected but some nice late additions really helped pad out the cut and paste efforts from Australia.

    Crazy that Papua New Guinea has offered us a potential New Ireland vs New Britain match in the next stage. Also, something mad I learned when researching for New Zealand. It used to have three provinces. These were called New Leinster, New Munster and New Ulster. That’s wild to me.

    Well if it makes you feel any better I dislike Ulster, Munster and Leinster rugby as much as I dislike Connacht rugby. :D
