Pointless game. Rugby can be **** unless the teams are balanced. And in world cups they rarely are.
Most sporting world cups are like that in the early rounds, it's the one time some teams get to play each other. By the knock-out stages it gets more interesting. But there have already been some big games in the group stages, like tonight with Ireland beating South Africa.
 
Wales left winger should be, at least, sin binned for an off the ball shoulder charge.

Aye, had he been English he would've been off.

Didn't matter in the end, best team won, and with a heavy heart I'm finding it difficult to express in words how saddened I am that Wales lost.
So, I'll just have to go with emoji or two <laugh> :1980_boogie_down:<bubbly><diva><cracker><party>

Would add that in the 1970’s I absolutely loved the Welsh team with the likes of Barry John, Gareth Edwards and J P R Williams never mind Gerald Davies and J J Williams but not now they don’t have any players with any charisma.
 
Oh look, England are the last team from Britain and Ireland left in the World Cup. Again. Who would have guessed.

Cracking first half, good contest. We just need to keep that intensity 2nd half but with more discipline. Curry needs to be careful.

I would say decent first half. Comparing it to last night’s game we are miles behind the All Blacks and Ireland but, at least, we are winning. We may end up as the only NH team in the semi finals. That would be a laugh.
 
What a tense finish. Huge result.
Some big performances today from the likes of Earl, Lawes, Itoje, Genge, Tuilagi, etc.

But also massive respect to Fiji, they've certainly won some friends and some respect this tournament. Thrilling team to watch.
