RWC QF 1 WAL v RSA (Twickenham) 18th Oct 0200 AEDT

[Hell West & Crooked]

Hear! Hear! - never supported Wales before in my Life - c'mon Boyos!

 

[ChargerWA]

Imagine being the poor prick on the end of Meyers comms. Couldn't pay me enough.

 

[Dewald Nel]

1995 rugby.

If you don't think all the games from now on will be like this, you're in for a massive surprise. This isn't league.

 

[Hugh Jarse]

I wonder what HM's blood pressure gets up to during a close match.

 

[Hell West & Crooked]

odd comment...

 

[Hugh Jarse]

If you don't think all the games from now on will be like this, you're in for a massive surprise. This isn't league.

1995 refers to the number of mistakes being made that full time professional players shouldn't be making, lots of them unforced.

Nothing wrong with a tight match decided by penalty kicks ( WAL v AUS last week).

I bloody hope not, it's starting to look like soccer

 

[ChargerWA]

I wonder what his blood pressure gets up to during a close match.

That throbbing vein in his beetroot red forehead says A LOT.

 

[mxyzptlk]

I'm sure you're not trying to find fault with that, because there was none.

I'm actually surprised Etzebeth didn't drop an elbow on Warburton's ear. I count on seeing Eben lose his head at least once per game.

 

[mxyzptlk]

That's a bony elbow for Baldwin to be smashing his head into.

 

[Chunderstruck]

SA went straight off their feet

 

[ChargerWA]

This game is going to be decided on a referees whistle.

 

[Bullrush]

The attack in this game is horrible. It as close to league as you can get except you don't get to the 5th tackle. 3 or 4 hit-ups and kick.

 

[BabyBlueElephant]

Much needed score by Wales.

 

[maxdacat]

wow how many times has the lead changed? 5-6?

 

[Hell West & Crooked]

doesn't matter - as long as Wales send these miserable bastards home...

 

[Dewald Nel]

This game is going to be decided on a referees whistle.

Just like Wales did there with that penalty. Instead they got it.

 

[Omar Comin']

Wales seem afraid to run the ball at the moment. Not doing themselves many favours in the 2nd half!

 

[Chunderstruck]

Tackles: SA 61, Wales 167

 

[BabyBlueElephant]

Shouldve nailed a drop goal there.
