Bit late

He’s too old to grow any taller

Imbecile

That’s his career over

[sparky]

And I should clarify , he retired from international Rugby in May so he wasn’t going to play in the RWC.

Biaritz should have been his pension

Fucking idiot

[MiketheSnow]

No match thread

Cracking match

Italy v Japan
Back and forth

Italy too strong and accurate at the end

Italy 42-21 Japan

Worst commentary team ever

One bird on coke, the other on tramadol

Nightmare

Am I missing a joke or do some people not know how to spell Pumas?

As Canes said I hit O instead of P when saying how I thought things were strom in a teacup...

I am sure the replies were just made in ouma.

If you want to be the best, sometimes you have to beat the best

Most open pool stages ever

That can’t be a bad thing

Have I missed the outcome of Vunipolas hearing or hasn’t it happened yet?

You missed it, 3 games -1 for school

Getting a reduction for heading to tackle school is ridiculous

[taniwharugby]

@canefan especially as Farrel clearly failed...

They are professional athletes. They should already know how to tackle. Don't incentivise going to school by reducing the punishment. Their incentive should be to learn how to not do it again so it doesn't cost them caps or money from missing games

These short guys really need to stop thinking they can get taller, just accept your height, much like I accept being fat and bald.

@booboo Wonder what might have been the outcome had they had testing in the 60s and 70s?

Game was played this morning.

@hydro11 OK, it says live on the TV tag bar thing. I did not even think about the time zone!

Yeah, I saw that. I assume it was just a typo from Sky.
