RWC: USA v Tonga (Pool C)

[booboo]

Another minnow match with no thread.

Which it now needs as apparently it is proceeding:

[booboo]

[Bones]

What the hell was that Nige? USA try to form a maul, player with the ball is about to get it stripped so hands it to a prop who's standing around behind the maul, he then grabs on to the back of the maul. Lousi comes around and starts to tackle him before he's even grabbed hold of the maul and Nige tells him to get back!

[African Monkey]

That last pass continues to haunt Tonga.

[Stargazer]

Yes, try Tonga!

[African Monkey]

Plenty of points out there for Tonga if they're patient and don't force unnecessary passes.

[Stargazer]

And now the USA on the board.

[Stargazer]

Good quiz question: which wings have captained the All Blacks.

I don't have the answer.

[Stargazer]

Poor defence from Tonga.

[African Monkey]

@Stargazer Stu Wilson's the only one I can think of off the top of my head.

No need for Veainu to come in like that.

[Rapido]

Poor by Teo to not reduce the angle which McGinty then doesn't convert by CMs.

Said Mr. Negative. Me.

I don't want to call Teo a self-absorbed showpony but . . . he's a self-absorbed showpony.

Captained from the wing, or has captained but also a wing? 😉

[Stargazer]

@Bones from the wing.

[Bones]

Halarrnoogarrnoogarr 😂

[African Monkey]

@Bones He's like the Aussie Ken Laban.

[Stargazer]

Oh, no, he drops it!

[Bones]

Oh shit. Takalua actually passes and look what happens. Great, now he'll never pass again.

[African Monkey]

@Bones There's nothing better than watching a Takalua box kick.

I'm in the UK fella... Not sure who the commentator is. Miles Harrison maybe?
