I like the assignments.
The England vs Aus game which looked predictably unpredictable has the three Frenchman to ensure anarchy.
The France vs Wales game which was is bound to be a coin flip given both nations records in knockout games at RWC has the most stable quartet of Peyper/Williams/Berry/Jonker.
If Berry were from a home union he would have a QF for sure.

We avoided the frogs and got Owens. Everything else is gravy

Will Owens favour NZ quite as much without Richie there? 🤔
this is deliciously bitter

I almost feel sorry for ENG and AUS supporters (almost), its like having the whole "axis of evil" against you. Wow, the frenchies and skeen.
The most disturbing thing is that RWC likes that combo and could inflict that combination on a semi and/or final... (I hope some sanity prevails)
I feel a new betting market coming on... how many cards issued?

Three yellows and a controversial red across the quarters.

@antipodean with the red being in the Eng/Aus game.

The most damming indictment on Skeen is that not even the Ferns most noted contrarians will have a crack at defending him.
-
We got Owens? OMG The Irish will have to stfu on the field or he will march them constantly. Hell I would have taken Barnes as well. Thankfully no Skeeny - the convicts and the oppressors get him and garces - that's one clusterfuck of officiating waiting to happen.

Am on secondment at the local Water Authority.
Executive Manager in the area I'm working is a big rugby fan. Know him a bit through rugby.
Anyway comes a loud exclamation from his office this arvo.
" ... expletive ... Garces! And two bloody French touchies! .. "
Me and Saffa bloke at the next desk advise him he's got Skeenie as well.
Seems he got a text from his Kiwi wife who informed him.
Apparently she followed up with: " it gets better ... we got Nigel ... "

And yet also making light fun of Owens' sexuality - let's face it, Read is an ugly fluffybunny compared to Ruchie.
So its a little of everything.
