Wales v Fiji

@bones I don't know that - but nor do you.
You'd need to have every individuals' indifference curve in relation to red card penalties at every instant, which is a known impossibility.
So we assume that everyone is rational and no-one wants to do things that severely disadvantage themselves and their team.
That evidently doesn't always hold true either - but, I don't see how juggling penalties is likely to make a lot of difference to individual players, so we might as well at least do things of obvious benefit to the spectators.

\I'm not getting attacked by a player just because you want to change things on a whim.

A whim???
That is firmly based on the Economic Theory of Choice!!!

Great performance from Fiji, apart from the deserved red card.
The dumbest Welsh effort I can remember since Fiji '07. The score flattered us a lot, that was a shambolic display. We are so poorly coached.
Welcome to the club, not every kiwi coach is a gem!
Oh we're well aware, we've been road testing them for you for about 24 years now

If you are happy to take Foster then, to carry on the legend, I'm sure someone will help drive him to the airport for you.

Seems like a fair trade. Should we tell Pivac to bring Jonathan Humphreys with him too?

Oh hang on, you want us to take Pivac back? Ok if he goes back to being a copper on the North Shore. NB his coaching record arguably outshines Foster's by some distance.

So they're not using 20 minute red card? I was confused.
Fiji didn't lose because of cards. They had fuck all possession and gave it up too easily when they managed to grab the pill. A few critical lineout throws lost in good position didn't help.
That put them in bad positions where cards are going to come.
But that red card. Fucking hell that was just idiocy.

Kept Pivac in a job
Otherwise it would have been straight to the car park a la Nantes
