RWC: South Africa v Italy (Pool B)

[antipodean]

The neck roll & clothesline refereeing is an utter lottery.

[MiketheSnow]

SA are not that smart are they.

Instead of running Italy ragged they're trying to beat them up

[Frank]

SA forwards seem too strong for Italy.
Not sure what Italy's strengths are.

Sergio Parisse?

He may not know a forward pass but Barnes is a bloody good communicator.

He's no Michael Collins

[Frank]

@MajorRage
He's 36 now. Bit past it.

Wayno just said uncontested from rest of game now, not just 10mins.

Bloomin sneaky Paddy coach.
Get both your fatties to claim injury and take away a Bok attacking weapon.

[Frank]

Vermeulen was just pile-drived WWF style.

[Stargazer]

Red card.

[Chris]

That was just crazy and dangerous

[MiketheSnow]

Both should have gone

Seems they had a plan B for that approach too and forgot to remind the loosehead at halftime it wasn't needed!

Yeah I reckon you are right

[Frank]

That'll be the game I'd say.

[MiketheSnow]

How the fuck have we got to 44mins abd Kolbe has only seen the ball twice?

[MajorRage]

What in the actual fuck was that by the Italians??

On the charge, break up 70 off yards, 5 out, Bok miles offisde, get the penalty. After the penalty two players upend at back of ruck and drive into ground???

How it wasn't two reds is beyond me.

[Bones]

@MajorRage coached by an Irishman clearly worried about Ireland coming up against SA.

[MiketheSnow]

DVM could have died

[MiketheSnow]

Oh fuck off SA.

Kicking for goal ffs

[MiketheSnow]

Smartest person on the field?
Wayne Barnes
If there are going to be any mistakes made by the officials in this match he's not going down alone
