RWC Week 1: Wales v Fiji

[Gunner]

YC too surely?

He put his arm out to signal penalty advantage so must have been a card coming.

Why, just because they scored does that negate the card.

[Billy Tell]

Should be 15 vs 13 fir end of match

[Victor Meldrew]

Oh, another warning after the 5th penalty. Are Fiji close to the line or something?

[Derm McCrum]

TBP and LBP?

[WillieTheWaiter]

that is farking outrageous. rubbish card at the other end and nothing but repeating cynical plays and NOTHING?!

[Mattasaurus]

There will be literally no consequence for what has in all probability being the most blatant one eyed refereeing display I've have seen in 40 years....

The Fiji card given for so little and the Welsh getting away with so much.....

Saving grace is the ABs were not involved so we cant be blamed for being sore losers.

[Higgins]

Can we hope for a miracle finish?

[Billy Tell]

Try line open and he knocks on

[Derm McCrum]

Lucky lucky Wales

[Gunner]

No no no…. just dropped a possible quarter final.

Ref breaths a sigh of relief.

FIFY. Can't blame Wales for that level of reffing ineptitude.

[Dan54]

What a hell of a game of rugby. Geez even as a neutral I am having heart palpitations!!
Great stuff!

[stodders]

You can come out from behind the sofa now @MiketheSnow 😂

[Billy Tell]

Fiji have to beat Australia you think. Just can’t see Giorgia beating wales they were dire.

[Smudge]

World Rugby can't have the "South Sea Islanders" getting too uppity, so they'll be pleased with Carley, Lord of Gloucestershire, delivering the desired result.

[booboo]

Bugger.

Gave up on this after Wales scored that last one at 32-14 to get ready for work.

Came back with time up ... what a terrible way for Fiji to finish.

I actually thought the Fijian yc was almost a penalty try to be honest, but I can see why when we are into game and in heat we see it slightly different?
Let's face it , hard not to love Flying Fijians, but really as a neutral, I really enjoyed both teams play.
(and the commentators even)

[pooler fan]

Ref was utterly shocking & that's from a Wales supporter.
Dee or Biggar should've been carded for persistent infringement.
Lucky win but I'll take it, couple of decent tries. We were always going to be under the cosh for long periods, they have some truly gifted individuals.
