Well managed to catch Namibia +69.5
Very lucky

Today

Samoa vs Chile +31.5

Wales vs Portugal +30.5

Ireland vs Tonga +37.5

I am going to stick with underdogs but did not know Portugal played rugby ?
If Ronaldo is playing worth a punt .

I'm not sure why we have a referee or assistant refs/touch judges anymore, we should just increase the TMO to 24 people so that we have a better chance or reason as to why not to award a try.

"Yes, Steve his bootlace was definitely undone when he passed the ball, let's just go back 37 phases and let me show you from 21 different angles, it will only take 7 minutes, just remember he only has 60 seconds to take the conversion, we here to speed up the game.""

Yoh :(

Rugby is a game well worth watching as compared to the acting one sees within soccer...
But the referees and TMOs sadly get more attention than the players and the rules, as currently constructed, do little to help the game...

Yip, you absolutely correct, just switched channels to see the Newcastle player milk a penalty there.

True, I have gone off football a lot although officials are trying to clean it up re the time wasting and fake injuries and dives

Starts with the players and soccer has long since fallen foul / fowl to players who do not respect themselves, their fellow players, the referees, the fans and the game itself...

Well must say the Portuguese can play rugby and kept me alive yesterday with a good underdog win

Today

SA VS ROMANIA +63.5
AUSTRALIA VS FIJI tight call
ENGLAND VS JAPAN +21.5

I am fairy bullish on the double

ROMANIA AND JAPAN

If Fiji can stop hurrying themselves they can beat Australia today. Take time at set pieces get their kicks right and when they are near the Aussie line don’t get excited and just try and plough through defenders like they did against Wales. Jones must already have all the excuses and blame laying prepared.

That must be the quickest bonus point ever earned This could become extremely damaging for the Romanian players as at this stage 100 points looks very likely

Bokke the only team thus far not to concede a try.
Can’t see any team scoring against us…………..

Fiji need to finish the job...30 minutes to go...
