    Second half's been really ordinary. Still, wp Japan.

    I at least feel a bit justified in my pre-tournament talking down of Samoa. Anyone still think they will challenge for knockout?

    Really hope Scotland turn over South Africa and knock them out. Would be immense
     
  3. Howe JHF Howe

    Yeah I don't think you'll see any arguments there

    Seeing England and South Africa knocked out on the same day would be immense.

    Probably the 2 teams I was most worried about going into the tournament.

    Flower of Scotland always makes the hairs on the back of my neck stand up.

    And I have no Scottish ancestry.
     
  6. Howe JHF Howe

    It's great. When you're there in the stadium for it it kind of rolls around the entire crowd. Bit spooky.
     
  7. Howe JHF Howe

    Boks look dangerous so far. They'll be alright here if they keep their discipline, I think.
     
  8. Fiery GR Smith

    Yes I experienced it at Murrayfield last November.
     
  9. Howe JHF Howe

    Weird try. I think I'd call that a forward pass from Burger, who gets held up, to du Plessis who eventually gets it down.
     
  10. Fiery GR Smith

    I thought it took far too long to get downward pressure on the turf tbh
     
  11. Howe JHF Howe

    Scots in serious trouble now, getting done in at the set piece
     
  12. Fiery GR Smith

    That's one of the most ridiculous yellow cards I have ever seen
     
  13. Howe JHF Howe

    Game just about over, yellow card gave Scotland a way in but its not happening. SA have this
     
  14. Fiery GR Smith

    God knows how SA lost to Japan. They've looked really good against Samoa and today.
     
  15. mouse MJ Edwards

    Scotland back into it now. Great counter attacking play
     
  16. Howe JHF Howe

    They're better in the second half but SA have just kept kicking themselves out of reach after their dominant opening 30. Gap's just been 6 points too many for the whole game
     
  17. Howe JHF Howe

    Paloma Faith update: Actually getting worse
     
  18. Furball G Furball

    A truly horrible pair of posts. It's a complete dirge.
     
  19. Starris ER Starris

    Wow Japan!!!

    They've got a chance of going through now - although not a great one!

    Man I'd have loved to see them play Scotland with a 6-7 day turnaround and Scotland having played a match too.

    Fucking Jocks!

    Was expecting more from them today.
