Another excellent game this morning. And another lesson to poofballists on how to respect the referee.

Is hat before or after the no arms shoulder charge into the opponents face??
At least the injured player doesn't roll around the floor like it's an Oscar performance, screaming for the physio to bring out a mirror and some hair gel.

Well done Wales. Held on by the skin of their teeth. Always good to see Australia trounced, no matter what the sport. :D

Congratulations to Japan for an excellent game today. They played better, worked harder and wanted it more than Scotland.
Time for Laidlaw to retire from international rugby I think.
Time to recruit a good Southern Hemisphere coach too. It's not done Japan any harm and I can see them giving the Boks another scare next match.

I really don't thing Japan 'wanted it' more than scotland.

They were just better.

Scotlands comeback after the hammer blow of conceding a try straight after half time didn't look like a team that didn't want it to me.

Anyway, Japan scored an own goal when they touched down behind their own line and get rewarded as a result. One of the really stupid laws in rugby.

Oh I think Japan wanted that win. They've looked like a team on a mission from the start of the tournament. I can see them making the semi finals.
Scotland in the second half were far more animated and fired up than the first half, but world cup rugby demands 80 minutes of that. Scotland are fast becoming like France...you never know which version of the team will show up.

I think a clean out at the top level of Scottish Rugby mabagement is long over due. Much as the England Rugby did a few years ago.
As old Bumchin said.. too many old farts.

According to reports it's open rebellion between the team and the coach...! Funny how belligerent the frogs are until they hear a German accent.... :rolleyes:

You can never tell with those twats though. If one of them pulls a fit burd the night before the match, the effect rubs off on the whole team and they'll go and beat the All Blacks.
