Shameful of England to let that try in at the end. We are going to get battered by the first good team we face.

No games tomorrow. It'll be a good opportunity to catch up on all the early games that I tried to wake up for but ultimately slept through.

the only joy from that USA game as an American was when they put in the jumbo fullback for a blood sub, everything else was pretty awful. the downtown Tokyo fanzone is really nice btw and will be good when it's a good game and not full of English fans making castles out of spent Heineken tins. I'll definitely go again after work next week.

Why do I continue to insist on rooting for teams that continue to disappoint me  After watching the replay of England-USA (finally, these time zones are a bitch being in the US) I would like to clarify that I meant Fiji. I have no national pride. sephiRoth IRA fucked around with this message at 07:23 on Sep 27, 2019 |

Tempted to make Jiffy's noise at 50 seconds the notification sound for my phone. Has this been discussed yet? https://www.bbc.com/sport/rugby-union/49845414 Reece Hodge (the Australian winger) has been banned for 3 weeks for the high tackle in the Fiji game. During his hearing he said he had no idea about the new rules/guidelines for high tackles, and hadn't received any training on it from his coaches. stavros880 fucked around with this message at 11:39 on Sep 27, 2019 |

That it's being enforced is kind of new, but I don't ever remember a time when it was technically OK to smash a fella inna face.

USA's John Quill has been banned for 3 weeks, for Schadenfreude. The ban was reduced from 6 weeks to 3 weeks, because Owen Farrell spoke in Quill's defense

One of the things I appreciate most about rugby is the concern about player safety. I mean, at that late England breakaway in the Eng-USA game they were 100% going to score a try and the ref stopped the game because a player was down. I think that the focus on high tackles is a good thing and that Twitter dude is wrong.

Farrell has had worse, he probably just sees it as the price of being him. Quill didn't call him a oval office at the same time so it obviously wasn't malicious.

The dust-up that happened right after that was because of the high tackle, right? Also the arm-tuck on that tackle was extremely telling, in my fat couch spectator opinion. Dude didn’t even attempt a proper tackle, it was a hockey check.

Pro14 kicks off tonight! Perfect for anyone jonesing with the world cup on a break day. The pro14 started as a Celtic league but now includes Italian and South African teams because reasons. The Cheetahs are currently 10-0 up against the Glasgow Warriors, while Ulster kick off against Ospreys in an hours time.
