Can Japan get another tier 1 scalp or will they wither away?

Will Romania give Tonga a game at all and prove they do deserve to be at the world cup?

And can Fiji blow Portugal away and get that quarter spot?

    Great to see Romania play here a bit more. Would still love to see a shield played in parallel for the bottom two finishers

    What a way for the group stages to bow out. Portugal, you were amazing!

        Was it the best of the group stages? Fiji beating Australia was also amazing. And the France vs New Zealand was epic, as was Ireland vs South Africa

        Hmm, can lemmy do a poll? Might be good Monday content tomorrow

    I only saw the highlights but Japan’s tackling looked poor.

    There’ll be some very nervous Australians watching the Fiji game tonight.

    I’m watching the Portugal Fiji game, so expect it to go to shit for Portugal soon.

    Fiji look poor fwiw.

    That was about the best outcome. As bad as Fiji looked at times, we couldn’t have that awful Australian team in the quarters.

    Away and busy so had to do with the extended highlights, but that Japan-Argentina game was some great viewing as a neutral. It got away from Japan at the end, but then that’s the usual story…

    Scunnert about yesterday. But not surprised. Scotland still needing that defense to go up a notch or two

      Scotland needs a hypnotist to convince them they’re playing England before each game.
