RWC: Fiji v Uruguay (Pool D)
-
Uruguay have done really well in this match, esp if you consider that Fiji had a much better preparation with tests against Pacific Nations Cup opponents like Japan, USA and the other PI Nations as well as the Maori ABs, while Uruguay crushed a Brazil XV, lost to and beat an Argentina XV, and played Nations Cup games against countries like Namibia and Russia in June.

well done Uruguay.
Ive only got one eye on it as I'm allegedly participating in a global leadership videoconf but from what I saw Fiji looked poor. Not a team - looked like they rated themselves too high and underated the puny Sth Americans.
To their detriment
All hail our new overlord dm.

somewhere, a red headed Englishman is thrashing out an article blaming this result on NZ and Australia

I love the emotion! I'd love to see footage of parties in Uruguay.
I've seen a few south american party videos, lovely ladies.

Well done to Uruguay but gutted for Fiji at the same time. Was hoping they'd push hard for a spot in the quarters but they really let themselves down today. They were complacent and failed to change their gameplan when things weren't going their way. Careless offloads throughout the game and weak defence as well as shocking goalkicking cost them badly. When they played simple rugby and built phases they had success but thought that throwing silly offloads was the way to go. A dark day for PI rugby.

@Bones Cindy says hello
Does make me sound (even more) like a piston wristed gibbon huh
Oh nah, that wasn't what I was saying. Merely saying I await your instruction dear leader.
Anyway... Rugby!
Awesome by Uruguay, they were fearless. Really thought they were gonna get topped over in the end. Fiji...seemed a bit arrogant?
