Hope wales beat Aus and Scotland beat Samoa. Wales v Scotland in the qf would be good - guaranteed one home nation in the semis ๐Ÿ™‚ plus being half Scottish and living in wales the banter would be great - till the normal crushing disappointment sets in.

Payne out for rest of RWC. ๐Ÿ˜

I'm guessing Trimble will get the call to join squad for the New Zealand QF?

Who'd have thought it?

Not Robshaw. After England got a bonus point v fiji and Aus didnt they should have known the cards were stacked in their favour. Everyone knew that Wales would struggle to get a bonus point win v Fiji with a 5 day turn around and a lack of depth in the squad.

What England did in those final 5 minutes was inexcusable imo. As others have pointed out a draw for them was okay. Poorpre-match scenario planning and on pitch decision making.

Still I couldn't care it was a great Welsh win.

All Blacks still not convincing be interesting when the meet a decent team. They are definitely beatable.

Scotland are lucky the samoan kicker is missing a few,might be crucial at the end.

Fair enough for Wilson,but not unprovoked,how exactly are you meant to get the player off you? Wait till he feels like letting you go?

!!!!

Weak yellow, no harm in giving someone a little reminder to let go. ABs have done it for years!

I hope the rolling obstruction gets gets addressed one day.

It just did THM! no more leaked tries this half and the Cotter hairdryer at half time. He allegedly makes Telfer sound like a village parson.

What was decided duckman?

Was that the best 40m of the RWC so far?

The try being disallowed,not strictly stopping truck and trailer,but first time I have seen that pinged at WC. Not the best 40,but I'm no neutral. I have some poachers choice in the fridge but may go straight for the cask strength Ardbeg.

Hell of a game for the partisan!

I'd suggest the Ardberg whilst you take the Poachers out of the fridge and let it come back to the right temperature before consuming!!

Mixed on this. I want the home nations to do well but I love a gutsy underdog, and my daughter was at school with Fa'sivalu's son (yes, I'm certain it's spelt wrong, I mean the Samoan 6) and he was a lovely bloke every time I saw him doing the school run.

What's the record for number of penalties conceded in a single half of rugby?

Tremendous game to watch, but not one for the purists. We'll get pumped in the quarters.
