Does Namibia have enough available players to make this a contest? Should imagine they've been targeting this match.

Uruguay started like shit, but were always going to finish stronger.
Namibia's captain is an angry dude. That last penalty cheap shot as well as the screaming at Raynal for the head clash was unbecoming.
Massively lazy and stupid from Namibia's reserve prop to get that red card. Opportunity of a lifetime: a back catches the ball and is in your target zone. Perfect time to drop the shoulder into his ribs and he's too lazy to bend his back

Poor old Namibia, that first WC win eludes them still……
A guy who joined our club this year, with no history of rugby, asked about the 96-0 loss to France.
"Does this happen often? Is it good for the game?"
It occurred to me, while explaining the Africa 1 qualifier spot, just how absolutely bonkers it is that the Namibs get almost a guaranteed spot every RWC while other nations don't. They're shit, and not really getting any better.

Really enjoyed this match
Great skills on show which were overshadowed by dumb cards
Very different from both sides but top notchRaynal makes some quizzical decisions and I wish Whitehouse (TMO) would just fuck off

Yeah surely Canada and their psycho lock who makes wine or the US with their crazy loosie with the flowing curly hair would be better bets for the WC than these chumps ?
( I’m aware both of my examples are retired but the point stands )
