Fractured cheekbone! I had France -66, easiest money I have ever won! Great game in prospect today. I can see Samoa actually beating the Aussies, wouldnt that be lovely. I have backed them with a 13 point start but hope it is a lot easier than that.
Felt a bit sorry for Namibia last night, yes France were good but they were lambs to the slaughter..... World Rugby needs to be doing more for tier 2 and 3 sides, getting them involved in playing the better sides more often so they can improve their standards and give a better account of themselves... these 1 sided mismatches do nowt for the tournament
DuPont, probably the most influential player in the tournament, fractures his cheekbone playing against Namibia, a game he could easily have been rested for. Especially as it happened in the second half and France were already 54-0 up. Massive blow for France if he misses the rest of the tournament. And a real shame for the tournament he’s properly exciting to watch play.
Off to Paris on a red eye flight tomorrow morning to see Ire V S.A. It promises to be an epic game. Really looking forward to it. Wales V Australia should be good too. Enjoy.
Expect the atmosphere to be red hot for that game, should be something quite special. Hope you enjoy it all !
Thanks a lot. Had a whirlwind couple of weeks. Went to London twice this week for QPR games and lost my Brother a couple of weeks ago too. No rest for the wicked.
Sorry to hear about your brother pal, life's eternally **** with fleeting glimpses of happiness. Cherish the memories and stay strong, all the best going forward!
