As a Force supporter who's terrible at following rugby news, this OP was the first I heard that Cummins isn't playing. I mean I had read the squad list but I just missed that he wasn't there. He didn't do much this season but still, what a shame.

Hopefully it means someone will let him into their commentary team and we can get more great Honey Badger quotes.

The greatest Rugby commentary team will forever be the time Eddie Butler fell ill during the game, and had to be replaced with Jonathan Davies and Shane Williams talking to each other for 80 minutes about how neither of them understood how a scrum worked, and couldn't keep track of who was currently winning the game.

Wasn't that Andrew Cotter during the Wales - Italy game, who was incredibly sick and Jonathan Davies just sounds bemused and disappointed in him?

Just finished watching the Pacific Warriors documentary about Samoa, Fiji and Tonga's relationship with rugby and how they play. Really good and I highly recommend folks watch it. Almost makes me want to see Samoa win the group :)

Where could one watch it?

I'm in the US but my computer can be in London, if it's on UK Netflix.

I rented it on Amazon video so you should be able to get it there, not sure about Netflix though.

It only lets you pick 3 Scotland Players, how will you ever choose?

It'll be tough but I think Sean Lamont is in for player of the tournament.

edit: Why would anyone think that pissing off the All Blacks is a good idea? Anger just makes them stronger!

Side bet on how long before Healy gets carded? I'd have offered Big Jim but he decided to throw in the towel.

I'm happy to get a new AV if Scotland get a guy binned before Ireland do. I reckon it's probably 50/50 between WP Nel and Healy :)

Vaders Jester POC just won you an avatar.

Wouldn't have picked paulie but there's a certain something about him and Cudmore both being carded in the same game

:toot: Didn't think it'd be POC but Healy wasn't on the pitch so I suppose he had to step up.

Cudmore needs to up his game and get himself red carded, none of this half measure nonsense. ;)

edit: Though I think the :toxx: was if Scotland got carded first.

Probably Namibia or Uruguay but Georgia are a good side to cheer on.

Japan's achilles heel was always the drop off from the 65th minute. If they've improved their cardio in the build up, they're going to be really dangerous.

The only positive is that at least Scotland won't play Japan expecting them to roll over for them. The Boks have clearly not prepared for this game and are paying for it.
