Right Joy, is that clear?

I hate that she can see that but can’t see the high shots
Thing is, she completely made it up, that's the worst bit. No angles showed what happened to the ball after it was displaced. So she plucked something out of thin air.

Bugger

Accuracy is going to kill Portugal
Just like Georgia last night
More than enough opportunities
-
That should have been another YC
-
Actually 2
-
The best part about going into the QF is we can bin rubbish officials along with the 3rd to 5th placed teams
-
Finally
-
Another coulda shoulda
-
Portugal if they could have converted another couple of opportunities would have been right in this.
-
Wouldn’t mind seeing the Portugal 15 in super rugby.
-
Portugal could do Fiji next week if Fiji play like they did yesterday and/or finally get pulled up for dodgy tackles

I guess Eddie achieved what he set out to do. ITV numpties noting it's "a real wake up call for Australian rugby" to be knocked out in the pool stages, despite mentioning Eddie had selected the youngest team.
He could have easily progressed to the quarters if he'd picked better players and not lost his marbles trying to forge his own way and be Mr Innovator.

@MiketheSnow was thinking the same thing
-
Portugal play proper rugby. I’ve been very impressed. We see if they can keep it up but they aren’t that far off the likes of Italy and Georgia imo.
-
This is the worse prepared Aussie team I can recall. Poor cohesion, appalling discipline and little in the way of leadership. Is it coaching? Is it selection? It’s certainly a step backwards over the past 9-10 months from what I’ve seen.

Yeah, Ozzie rugby has deep issues, but Jones has made it worse. RWC success, or even good performance, is based a lot on experience on the big stage - getting rid of pretty much all of it was ridiculous. Even if HooperCooper were there just for support and playing minnows, they would've made a difference. Hooper has mana in Ozzie rugby, and Quade has very much matured from what I have seen

All Fiji need is one competiton point - 4 tries or losing by 7 or fewer will do.
