Depends on who gets the red card. Most games this RWC hinge on Ben Skeen's shit TMO decisions.

And easily persuaded French Refs. That Welsh/Fijian game started out so well and then those 2 just ruined it. Any penalty near the 50 is usually an easy 3 points for SA. Its not pretty to watch, but just like when England won it, it gets the job done.

If New Zealand needed four or five points against us it would not have been cancelled,” Parisse said.

“It is ridiculous that a decision of this nature has been made because it isn’t like the fans arrived yesterday.

“It is ridiculous that there was no Plan B, because it isn’t news that typhoons hit Japan. The alternative is Plan B. When you organise a World Cup you should have one in place.

“Sure, everyone might think that Italy versus New Zealand being cancelled counts for nothing because we’d have lost anyway, but we deserved to be respected as a team.”

Cant say I disagree with this statement. If it was any of the top tier nations that needed points, you bet your ass they would have a Plan B.
 
I don't get why they couldn't play the match at least on other fields, behind closed doors.
 
OT- I know nothing about rugby but heard something about a Toronto team joining some super league after winning a $1M poind game.

What does any of that mean?

They've just started a Major League professional Rugby Union competition in North America. No idea what the $1m point game is though hahaha.


Wallabies looked like shit against Georgia. Good news is we only have 1 more game left with Cheika and Foley I guess.

That's rugby league.....different sport to rugby union.
 
Holy crap that turf Ireland/Samoa are playing on is the worst of the tournament.
 
The typhoon is rough here today. I'm in Tokyo.
Hoping Japan Scotland goes ahead tomorrow.

Why would I hate Eddie Jones? Coached us to the final in 2003. Englands not gunna get anywhere near the Final this year. Manu Tuilagi is my favorite Englishman ;) or maybe Joe Marler.
 
Namibia vs Canada has been cancelled it seems.
 
The game is on!! On my way to Yokohama!

Go on Scotland!!

Don’t lie. Owen Farrell is your favourite Englishman. Or maybe Stuart Broad depending how long your memory is
 
USA vs Tonga was a decent game. I feel a bit sorry for the Sea eagles, they had the hardest group with zero easy games. There was probably a good 4/5 teams in the World Cup they could have beaten without being an upset, there just wasn’t any in their group.

They were unlucky today anyway and made mistakes in key areas. Also, Tonga’s last try was clearly offside. TMO decisions can be annoying when that happens, the TMO never disagrees with the ref once they say what decision they are thinking of going with. Even when it’s clearly wrong
 
I have no idea what’s going to happen in this Japan v Scotland game.
