Thought I was going to watch a match, not a gubbing between worlds top 2 ranked sides, secretly relieved Scotland didn't have to face NZ.:oops:
 
Have these players never had a scrum before?
Jeez, it takes a long time to get one done.
Oh, and why does Farrell take forever to take a penalty? What's with all the fannying about, there should be a time limit.
I've seen Bryson DeChambeau take a putt in less time.
Otherwise I'm really enjoying it, good game so far.

Pretty sure they're allowed a minute for a penalty, but that may have changed!

Ireland just don't have an answer to the power of the kiwis ,very impressive display and a completely one sided game.
England will need to right at the top of their game to beat them.
 
Well that summed up Ireland’s World Cup - they peaked last year and have stumbled since then shame as it’s a very talented bunch but you can’t go into a game against NZ without being at top form.

Next weeks game is going to be a cracker - not too bold to say who wins next week will win overall.

Yeah, I have to agree with that.
Next week is the World Cup Final for me as, whoever wins, will beat Japan in the final.
Oooh, bold prediction right there.
I'd love to see Japan in the final.
 
Great win for England and pleasing to see the Aussies play ‘Scottish’ rugby for Watson’s try. Tough one for Ireland. All Blacks we’re always going to present a huge risk of a drubbing and ireland haven’t been their best of late. Need wales to do a turn for the Celts - think the Auld Alliance will have to stay in the drawer this morning.
