    Unfortunately, he couldn't do it a second time. Try Samoa.

    Huge physical game from Samoa again. NZ struggling.

    0 - 7 Samoa

    HT: NZ 0 - 7 Samoa

    The AB7s have had very little possession in this first half.

    @Machpants Any time Sth African lose to a lesser ranked team is something to appreciate.

    Sth Africa 05 - 10 Uruguay with two minutes left. Fingers firmly crossed!

    Not sure that great, means we play them in the quarters, right?

    No, GB or Argentina in the Cup QFs.

    Not after they also lose to Ireland in their last game as two losses will relegate them to the dunce's division.

    Laidlaw started a quicker, more youthful, but inexperienced team. I assume that was due to the conditions, which are a lottery. Ironically, coming second in the group looks to be an advantage (GB vs Arg).

    Well the first part of that prediction proved 100% spot on but sadly Uruguay played like a soggy gingernut and somehow lost to the almost never winning Canadian side to let the Saffa's flounder through on points differential.

    Argentina beat Samoa 19-12 in the first QF. Fiji will beat SA.

    Let's hope NZ plays better next.

    NZ beat GB 24-12.

    GB very good at hanging on to the ball but made our defence look good as they have little penetration or ability to manipulate.
    The stats on possession and passes must have been hugely in their favour.

    Cup Semi Final

    11.36am: NZ v Australia

    The other semi:

    11.14am: Argentina v Fiji


    Of the teams in the top 4 of the overall standings, only NZ has reached the semis.

    South Africa will stay in the top 4, but Samoa and France will be replaced by Fiji and Argentina.

    NZ started really well but then lost their way in the 1st half when GB had a player in the bin. Were lucky not to go down to 6 men themselves.

    South Africa getting flogged by Samoa 31 - 00 and still five minutes to play. At this rate they might concede a half century!

    None of this is bad.
