RWC19 "Stuff"
Re: RWC19 "Stuff"
Chuffed for Wales and impressed by their resilience.
Personally thought the French 5 was lucky to be on the pitch to get sent off...he was recklessly flying into rucks with his arm tucked under his body throughout the first half and should have been binned at the very least.
Thought the try was good...and certainly no ‘conclusive evidence’ to overturn the onfield decision.
Don’t understand the Welsh bashing on here sometimes and can’t believe the anti-welsh bias of some English-persons...have you all forgotten that they were playing the bl##dy French!? (hope all appreciate the nod to gender equality in such a xenophobic comment 
).
Yes Wales didn’t play well and if France hadn’t settled for trying to defend their lead / committed a straight up assault they probably would have won. However, Wales got it done. I said to the (welsh) wife 20 minutes in that I’d rather France be in the lead come the last 20 than chasing the game...they are at their best when they attack and going into a defensive mindset backfired on them. Their cynical time wasting also screwed them over more than the Welsh.
I think Wales will take a huge amount from this, potentially more than England will from what was an awesome performance from them yesterday...the kiwis are looking sublime and England still haven’t been tested in terms of having to find a way back into a game.
Now a Japan win please...would be happy with NZ vs Eng and Wales vs Japan!

My level of welsh bashing comes from having a boss who is a welsh fan who will be a bloody nightmare on Monday morning!

Japan’s handling skills and footwork are as good as anything at this WC. Mesmerising to watch

I'm out from behind the couch now and totally relieved Wales won. In fairness, the French should have won that game.
Could be Japan the way they are playing! The pace they play at is incredible. Certainly causing south Africa quite a few problems

It’s like watching an amazing BaaBaas team. Edge of the seat stuff. Can’t take the smile off my face

Proper rugby from SA in the 2H...never mind the off-loading, just beat them up. I loved it.
