Unimpressed posted:Nah, that's bullshit. I'm happy about the result for sure, and I don't mind a good grinding game of Rugby where it's tough at the breakdown and it's low scoring. But this wasn't that kind of game. Just lots of penalties, bad execution, rubbish scrums. Name one aspect of the game of Rugby that was played well in this game apart from place kicking. Even the open play kicking was mediocre. Two bad teams. Its like trying to watch 2 teams trying to lose to each other. Pretty much uk.txt right there.

You would think a team who scrum and throw in for poo poo would just play a running game.

Come on Canada. Do to France what you did to Italy (but actually win this time).

Georgia are such jerks playing a type of game that lures their opponents into a false sense of security.

Stop giving Georgia scrums. They are painful to watch.

Are the All Blacks honestly playing down to their opponents?

Watching the Aus v England game an MD I really wish it was possible for both team ms to lose. Can't decide which team I hate more.

Duro posted:Ah, the classic "a chasm swallows the pitch and every player on it" option. Las Vegas should add that option on its betting odds, maybe it would have a chance of coming true More like both teams play like poo poo and the referee had no choice but to cancel the game to try preserve some dignity for the sport. And England and Australia are banned from playing rugby forever.

Can a ref just award a penalty try out of pity?

Jesus Canada's kicking is the thing that is actually beating up the Canadian team.

Seriously Canada's kickers are to blame for this. 11 points missed.

Got to feel sorry for the Yanks come scrum time.

Credit to Yanks, they are tackling like champs. Saved about 4 tries already.

Tight try. Nice run by Habana (assuming it was onside).

Is there still a chance of Japan making it through to the next round?

France is seriously Frenching this game up. I think they have forgotten what the Irish try line looks like.

My buddy is going to be having a "South African" party tomorrow morning for the rugby, so I will be drinking lovely Castle Lager and trying to eat all the biltong at 8:30 in the morning. It's going to be a looooong day.

It's 5 o clock in South Africa so it's a spiritual connection.
