French hit the post twice with their kicking too.

 

Yeah. Wales will know they got away with one today.

The papers can have those for free. Ok, second one doesn’t quite work, but fuck it, since when has the Express ever worried about that.

Holmes also described Moriarty as the 'Napoleon of crime.' 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Come on Japan. 

 

Really looking forward to this.

Congrats to the Welsh, a lot of relief for them though, thought they were extremely poor today. 

I think Wales's sluggishness was a hangover from making 13 replacements for the Uruguay game. Gatland has played a blinder with his selections (not to mention his luck). Badly need a fit Jonathan Davies (and maybe a start for Patchell) in the next game. We need to get back into playing the kind of creative, cocky rugby to be in with a chance the next game.

Like I said mate, the deck is re-shuffled. In a strange way I think you'd have a better chance against a physical Saffa team than the quick hands of the Japanese, who can also mix it with their backs. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

That could easily have been red. Saffa just going for brute force.

The ginger kid from the front of MAD magazine has filled out now he’s grown up.

Hahahaha, I immediately thought the same thing. 

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

C'mon Japan.

Amazing stuff from Japan.

[Anubis]

Kudos to South Africa for being the first team to play a woman in the full-team. She’s done the No9 shirt proud so far.

[Em City]

Japan playing sumptuous stuff.

Ken Watanabe glowering away in the crowd.

I don't think many people like the Saffas apart from themselves. 

[Pidge]

Barnes certainly doesn't seem to.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Saffa fans going mental at Wayne Barnes, hahaha. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Great shot as the teams entered the field of play for the second half. Behind the touchline Japan will be attacking there was about 200 photographers and I only saw a few at the other end. 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

That should be a yellow for japan there.

MORIARTY WINS WITH SHEARLUCK

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Old school ruggers there for that try.

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Fair play to SA, they've stuck to their plan and ruined the party. SA are gonna beat Wales with some to spare.

Lets hope so
