JWL Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 48 minutes ago, Malinga the Swinga said: Dupont back for quarters according to reports. Agree with you and NTL. It's a sad day when the English are preferable winners but Wales and especially the Irish are detestable as are their insufferably arrogant supporters/pundits and media. It's not sporting I'm told to wish injury on opponents but if Murray, Sexton, Earls, Furlong and especially O'Mahony were to be hit by an Achilles injury, I wouldn't be upset. If they were to be hit by a French madman with a baseball bat I wouldn't shed a tear either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Victorian Posted October 6, 2023 Share Posted October 6, 2023 Just now, Morgan said: Italy cuffed. Is it last week already? Savaged twice. France are the best team in the world by a mile. Structured when they want to be. Play in the loose if they fancy it. All the power in the world. Rarely miss a place kick to take the piss a bit more.

Mikey1874 Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Scotland don't need extra motivation. But as Gregor Townsend said its assumed Ireland are qualifying. Just need to show the squad the English newspapers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PortyJambo Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Wales on their way to fairly comfortably beating Georgia to top their group, but they've very underwhelming. Just highlights again how lopsided the draw is that they'll not play a top side until the semi-finals if they get there. Whoever gets to the semi-finals from the other side of the draw will be clear favourites to make the final, but in a one-off game there's always a chance that England or Wales could make the final from just playing well in one game.

PortyJambo Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Boo, try for Wales (suspicious forward pass and all) and the try bonus point means they'll top the group now even if they still lose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PortyJambo Posted October 7, 2023 Share Posted October 7, 2023 Couple of late tries from Wales to make the scoreline more flattering to them than it really was. A quarter final against Argentina or Japan, and I wouldn't put it past either of them being able to beat Wales, certainly not a foregone conclusion that Wales will beat them.

I'd rather these injuries were all very early in the match. Sextoy kicks off and... ooyah!... my hammy's gone (and my achilles); Furlong and O'Mahony up to challenge for the kick off run head-on-head into each other (twice for good measure) - off they go to fail their HIAs. I'm not too bothered by Earls but he has to be drafted into the scrum for reasons I can't quite work out and puts his back out trying to heave. Then Murray falls over and hurts his cock really badly. He's on the bench but it means he can't come on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
