I always think it’s a bit lame that England have got an Australian coach, and also against the spirit of international competition.

Same goes for Wales and their twenty years of Kiwis.

On that basis you presumably think we should be employing Gary Neville rather than Jurgen Klopp?

That much launching it forward in this game, it feels like Neville is managing at least one of these teams

[Guest Pistonbroke]

It was always going to be a tactical and physical game, it has been scrappy as fuck so far. 

[bigthrusts]

Complete opposite of the game yesterday this. Two low risk teams. Just a kick fest.

 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Wales have a habit of playing a strong second half as they open the game up more for their forwards, so I wouldn't write them off yet myself. However, I'm not sure if the Welsh will keep the saffas out if they open up.

North looks finished with the way he went down then

[Guest Pistonbroke]

North looks fucked now. If Wales make the final they'll be fucked.

Francis looked fucked as well after that low big hit, his own fault mind. .

Had to laugh at the commentators on the telly(especially the welsh one) who were calling cramp! Probably more in hope and desperation than the obvious conclusion to his reaction, but never the less, cramp, fuck off ye divvies. 

[Red Shift]

Both teams happy to conserve, and walk into the final. Probably then banking on England being fucked.

 

They won’t be.

This game is like pulling teeth, one error after the other followed by a game of kicking for territory.

Indeed. You feel one try could be the difference and maybe ignite the game. If anyone can actually get over the line.

Some rugby!

[Dougie Do'ins]

How the fuck did he manage to get through there ? 

[Guest Pistonbroke]

and as I typed that the Saffas go over for a try, poor defence from the Welsh, but a strong run off the back of a penalty in hand.

Momentum, strength and a poor tackle. That Pollard is on the ball with his boot. 

[Dougie Do'ins]

Finally, a bit of rugby.

[1892-LFCWasBorn]

Fucking yes.

 

Superb kick to tie it up too.

[Bjornebye]

What a decision to not take the easy 3 

[Red Shift]

Going down to the wire......

[Guest Pistonbroke]

Back to square one. 

[Red Shift]

Did Wales lose a game in the pool play? I can’t be bothered checking. All Blacks beat the Boks.

They won all of their games in the group stage.

Then they’ll beat the Boks. Seems fair.
