    Awesome second half. What triggered the nonsense after the final whistle? Was really hoping Argentina were going to make it.

    Best game of the tournament so far but everyone expecting that title to be lost to the next game: South Africa against New Zealand.

    I don't know if anyone else has seen his videos but Squidge Rugby has done a good piece on this fixture pre-world cup and looking forward to what could happen in the tournament: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tZWx6Rv9b-Y

    Don’t think any of the top 6 will have sleepless nights about France.

    NZ v SA is a cracking game.

    If you delete this rugby thread delete every post that isn't football related. You'll have a very quiet message board.

    The intensity and technical ability of these two teams was outstanding.

    Frankly, anyone else who fancies beating either of these two (especially NZ) can only depend on “one of those days” or a sending off or two.

    Seeing as NZ only gave away two penalties in such a keenly contested game the sending off option looks remote, as it stands.

    Ireland v Scotland should be a good game (starting at 8:45) then you have Tonga v Tongan nationals which should be an easy victory for England.

    watching the latter games yesterday and it seems not only do they accept feeding in the scrum...they also don't mind a not straight lineout..these days

    They were so, so bad today. Finn Russell is an undoubted talent but when the open game is stifled, he’s offers next to no direction to this team.

    Japan will fancy their chances against them in the last pool game

    Bit of a pointless thing to pick at England for really considering who’s played for wales over the years.

    Hadley Parkes sounds welsh as ****.

    Yeah because New Zealand losing out on talent has held them back so much. The point isn't restricted to England though, it's almost all tier one nations who have picked from the Pacific Islanders without giving too much back. Although England are the rugby nation with the most resources before going down this route if that matters at all.

    FT:

    England 35 - 3 Tonga

    I guess they think it's coming home already.

    Wales play tomorrow morning 11:15 v Georgia

    Of course you have a point, but I didn’t think that was the nature of the post I was replying to.

    We can’t sit here and knock England for what we do, almost as stupid as the anti England songs we sing at the city with how many English players and staff?

    Anyway, I agree it’s not right. They are basically taking them from a school age now and you’d bet given the choice they’d rather play for their own nation but they get a better upbringing in NZ with school and work for their family..
