I heard Australia had a bit of a scare against Fiji - interesting news for England. All Blacks and Springboks can do us a favour by killing each other today. France v Argentina was MUCH closer. 23-21. 75th min drop goal won it for France, but, how the argies must be kicking themselves, 79th min penalty a few metres inside French half, left of centre, got great distance, but pulled it wrong side of left hand post.
This operation, will make the 'Charge Of The Light Brigade' seem like a simple military exercise. |

Hard for England fans to see either of them win. If they could have both lost that would have been nice.

Fairly predictable results so far, though Argentina gave France a tough game. Many of the upcoming games look like foregone conclusions so it'll be interesting to there are any upsets. Australia vs Wales is the next competitive game I'd say.

Yes 3am compared to 7am. I too would prefer a 7 am kick off. Not if I were playing though. Agreed

Just hope the coach back to their hotel makes a timely return or they could struggle to put out a full squad for the remaining games.

Talking of Fiji . . . Quite a damming indication on the quality of Refereeing so far. Can see a tightening up of the laws from now on, what's the next game . . . oh, wait, USA v England. Indiscipline has cost England before, should be interesting.

Edited by YT (25 Sep 2019 4.58pm) The 'official' release was after Uruguay's fabulous win over Fiji, so will come into force tomorrow. You are indeed correct about the Italy/Canada game, I stand corrected & humbly apologise.

Indiscipline has cost England before, should be interesting. Refreshing to see a governing body calling out its own referees. In the Wales V Georgia game I thought it was excellent. How long until they finally agree to give referees mics in football. I was impressed after one of wales’ disallowed try’s when the ref called both the captains over and explained he had to make a complicated decision, then every step If the decision making process.
