WTF?

NZ 52-0 USA

Yanks musta gotten into card(s) trouble?

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

Coupla big results in the men's comp, Uruguay beating Fiji & Canada beating Australia who will now have to beat Ireland to qualify for the Cup: Canada have Chile & will surely win that. Women's results pretty much by the book.

Gotta love 7s. Get pumped by Canada and then beat NZ who put 52 on USA the day before.

It’s not just in the 7s. But anyone else hate the in game cross to player/coach/whoever during play. To me it detracts from watching the game

I just like the microphone in the half time huddle. That works.

"We apologise for the language you may have picked up". Every. Time.

^ yeah & that's just the ladies...

It’s like when they introduced the stump mic in wsc. They needed someone to fade in and out continuously.

Skinny in-goals just about cost USA the leveller there. Going to GP now.

 

[waiopehu oldboy]

I should probably know this but what happens if it's still 10-10 after GP ET?

Edit: question is now moot, Ireland go through to play Argentina.

Did you se the freanch lady vs oz who didn't put the ball down and proceeded to walk back to the restart till the referump asked upstairs.

Did you spot faith nathan v japan practising her forward rolls on her nose:

Nice win by Aus girls vs. the USA (38 zip or so), made them look pretty hopeless.
It's great to see smaller teams with good touch footy skills beating bigger teams.
I still think this is the best game to watch of all the football codes.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Faith Nathan could really come off second best with the artificial grass on the face. Hopefully not. Absolutely awful shit to play on

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

Great run by Turner. Lancaster has a big future in Rugby.

 

[The Ghost of Raelene]

wow these 7s refs are baaaad. Decisions both ways
