I’ve got one of my good mates coming around tomorrow. We’ve got the Aussie game, then France - Aregentina and then the All Blacks. It’s an amazing time zone for Australia. Sport from 2:30pm, beers, bbq! I’m so goddamn excited!

What was Nigel saying to the Russian halfback then? Something about not dummying?

Well it was no Battle of Tsushima, Russia played well and I think the Japanese will be a little unhappy.

I really don’t know that’s a yellow. I don’t think it was direct contact to the head in the replay either.

The Rabbi T. White posted:I was talking about the failed intercept. That's supposed to be an instant card. I thought it was only for a deliberate knock-down? Like if you seem to have made an attempt at intercept it’s not a foul. I could easily be wrong.

So now we just dive into every tackle so we can milk a yellow card?

Radio New Zealand reporting AB’s - Italy, England - France and Japan - Scotland as all very likely to be cancelled. Hopefully this isn’t the case. It doesn’t appear change the finishing order in Pools B & C but it really robs us of an exciting clash in Pool A.

arent the two games that were cancelled essentially dead rubbers anyway? The Scotland - Japan game is going ahead, this is the one that has the most on the line.

Nice try Samoa. Looked like a sick neck roll in the lead up and the Samoan jumper in the line-our looked like he was interfered with too.

I can’t argue with that as a red. It didn’t look malicious but in terms of what cards have been handed out this tournament, it had to be red for consistency. Nice touch by the Samoan players to give Aki a pat, they clearly saw it wasn’t a malicious thing.
