Nope. Correct decision according to the laws and guidence.

Can you show your working out on that

I just couldn’t see that much of a drop in Tompkins height – looked wreckless to me.

Oh well, it was good while it lasted. Quarter finals and played decently. Arguably the better team in many ways – unfortunately not the one that matters most.

Fuckety **** **** 😭😭😭

This game started so well 😭😭😭

Its certainly possible given the easy route ………

😉

Scotland have a very favourable lineup for 2024 6 nations:

1: Wales v Scotland
2: Scotland v France
3: Scotland v England
4: Italy v Scotland
5: Ireland v Scotland

I can’t wait to hear their excuse for only winning 1 or 2 games.

😉

England v Wales final?

This thread would be absolute carnage.

😂😂

My nerves are totally on edge already!

They seem like decent odds. I’m surprised, not being a gambler, I wouldn’t have expected you to get such favourable odds.

What odds could I get on an England v Wales final? 😜

The excitement is getting a bit too much for me already 😀.

Four games that are too close to call.

I feel like Wales have a 51% chance of winning, but it could easily be Argentina.

Ireland should beat New Zealand. That is probably the easiest game to call. Their consistency, their recent long winning run,including the Grand Slam and Tour win in NZ – all bode well. NZ have shown that they can win when on top, but have also shown they can be beaten.

Sunday, I’m going to go for England and France. I’d like Fiji to do well, but it would be really good to see an all Northern Hemisphere semi-finals.

😃😃😃😃😃😃😃😃

Absolutely fantastic!!!

They have played so well all tournament!

I’m torn between wanting the group underdogs to win this match and the world underdogs to progress further at the expense of the Aussies…

Yes, I guess there must be a lot of us thinking the same. You can see why the most successful teams don’t play quite like this, but it has been very entertaining.

Could be a good game this.

Great so far.
What odds on Australia winning the World Cup and Eddie Jones being the hero? 😉

Hoping Portugal win, but Fiji get two bonus points 😃

A Scotsman walks into a bar. But it’s empty because the Englishman, the Welshman and the Irishman are still in France.

Yes it’s an old joke but sadly still a topical one

It’s a shame Scotland (and Italy) are going home. All that preparation for a couple of wins against much weaker teams. Another 4 year wait now 🙁

Wales v Argentina then. Their no.11 looks dangerous.

I think this Japan v Argentina game is what you might call ‘end to end’!!

Shane says the same as I’m typing this 😃

Shit, he’s our best player.

Indeed 😭😭.
Wales suffered due to injuries in the last world cup.
Samoa to put 100 on England? 😜😜

Oh, my that ?2nd try was amazing

Faletau out of the World Cup with a broken arm 🙁
Terrible for him and an awful blow for Wales.
Liam Williams also a concern apparently.

Gorgeous play by Samoa there for their first try.

Well, this was all too predictable 😱

Feels like there are cards coming on this game 😱

Anscombe out, Costelow in 😱
Thank goodness we don’t have to win – I’m not sure how my nerves would cope. This always felt like a risk with Anscombe it seemed. At least it didn’t happen in the knock out stages. It will be good to see how he gets on. Not sure who’s backup(?).

Hopefully an exciting afternoon of rugby awaits.

Scotland will go out.

I fear that unless Ireland receive two red cards in the first half, I cannot see Scotland troubling Ireland at all. [Even with one red card I think Ireland would win comfortably].

Before the start of the tournament it was difficult to tell if Wales might lose all their games or make it through to the semi-finals. I cannot see Wales losing today – maybe if we had to win, then I’d be less confident.

England to win comfortably today too.

Agreed. Also, about 30% of all they say is pure pish. I don’t know how they get their jobs.

It should remain yellow. Low force, passive (ish) tackle, possibly indirect contact.

That was my initial thought, but I was swayed by the experts 🤷🤦

Damn! That possible red card is so disappointing for the game.

Thankfully as a neutral, yellow is much better.

Woo hoo!!!

C’mon Portugal 😃

50 plus points and no cards or injuries

I’m expecting 70+

Flower of Scotland is dreadful!!

What will be considered a good result for Scotland tonight?

Great last minute! I thought Georgia were going to score that try 😃

Gorgeous offload for that Fiji try!

Fiji channeling their inner Wales

Thankfully Wales always have a number of top class penalty kickers.

Oh my, Italy are in trouble!! <– huge understatement.

Not heard of GrandSlammers before. Netflix?

C’mon Italy!!!

And a very winnable quarter final at that

Not if they play England according to Rugby Union Weekly – they reckoned that England would comfortably beat either Wales or Fiji 🤷

I think you’re right though. Wales and Fiji have a decent chance of winning their Q- final games. Could easily go either way.

I hadn’t realised – Wales are apparently the first team through to the Q finals. Lovely 😍

😃

Just about enough time for a couple more wales tries

Too slow. One more please.

And we were singing hymns and arias…
😃😃🙂
