@booboo No, @Catogrande is having consolation sex with Katie Hopkins.

Which would explain my lack of posting yesterday, It took me ages to escape from her cellar.

She must watch too many movies

Wales have 143 points in total in this RWC...All Blacks have 210...All Blacks get third place....now both teams can go home to get over not winning the 2019 RWC 🙂

That is rather amusing.

I wonder what the Lions did to him?

In hindsight a tough call probably needed to have been made and one of our stalwart locks shouldn’t have started. Scott Barrett was pretty good in that first half and he along with Cane would’ve been pretty handy with how the game was being played.

Given we barely competed at England’s LO ball, the loss of one of our 2 metre locks wouldn’t have mattered.

It's another opportunity to fill a stadium is the only reason I can think of.

My guess is it’s mainly to sell to the high price tour groups from The SF or QF on.

Two years out from the tournament the idea of “well as long as they make the SF we will see them twice” makes sense.

A. Smith was a workhorse I thought. He was taking on the big boys when our big guys were missing.

Sheesh, I thought his decision making left a lot to be desired. If I was Rattue I’d be demanding a public square explanation as to the box kick just outside our attacking 22 alone. And that wasn’t one of those platform was a problem issues. We were on attack and actually building.

I can remember watching mccaw do the voice over for the 2015 final, in a similar attacking situation early in the game , smith kicks it in behind them into the in goal, and the Aussies took it away with ease, looked like a similar stupid play.

Mccaw adds , that kick in behind them was planned , didn’t really come off .

Maybe smith was working to Instructions, , hard to fathom why , but When I saw it , I thought of the above.

@MiketheSnow one of his better ones.
When this guy stops trying to be a comedian his analysis is very good

Yep.

Remarkable when you consider the drivel which comes out of SCW's mouth most of the time, and he's a WC winner ffs

@mariner4life I record and avoid during the day, not hard during reg season. Much harder during playoffs and finals when every cnt suddenly becomes an expert and fan

Smith easily MOTM. His passing is pretty much rugby porn, and he makes everyone else's job easier.
Then Read and Goodhue I went for. Best game by Read in ages, and not many on here picking Jack to start, but he smashed it.
Hell of a team effort though.

Some harsh comments on Todd given what utter bullshit his card was.

@rotated said in Risk Analysis / Confidence Levels:

it was effectively a points decision which went the wrong way.

You reckon that we should have lost that?

@canefan nah this one was a good cnut!

What's in a name right? 😉

@Bovidae said in RWC: Japan v South Africa (QF 4):

The good sauce is that both Foster and Robertson want Brown as their attack coach.

Party at Tony Brown's?

Let's just take a moment to consider how self unaware the moron is who posted the picture online. Jacques says thanks mate! Nice reward for playing along for your joke.

Intercept passes are classified as turnovers.

Stu was the AB captain by default on that tour. One to forget too.

I thought BFA might have captained from the wing but he was at fullback.

Hated the last try. Defend for you life for 84 minutes then ref let's a team take a quick tap way perpendicular to the mark. Soft, (by the ref). It is a pet hate of mine.
