Carn F1J1!!

I don’t think that would work for us anyway. If they call it a draw we are equal with Wales on 11 points and assuming we both get a bonus point win in our last game we finish equal on 16 points, it’s my understanding that Wales would be declared the pool winner as they won our game. Besides...

What's the go with naming the team a full day earlier than required? It's way too useful for us in the fantasy comp, maybe Cheik has a team in the comp too?

I think it makes sense to give Lilo a breather ahead of the quarters, considering his situation. It also makes sense to give To'omua a start at 10 to see if he carries his form from the bench into the opening stanza. I'm not sure if Pocock/hooper is experimentation anymore, I'm inclined to...

The Oz reporting that To'omua will get a run at 10 in this game as part of Lilo's game management ahead of the quarters. Also probably to see how he goes there fresh. Inferring: 6. Pocock 7. Hooper 8. Naisarani 9. 10. To'omua 11. Koroibete 12. Kerevi 13. O'Connor 14. Petaia 15.

so if they have 2 still left in the squad they'll just get the 2 injured ones replaced presumably. They may need a 5th as injury cover as well

Presumably the two injured players will be replaced, but if they need further reinforcements in the front row then yes they'll need to sack a couple of other players. It's a bit academic anyway as it will be their last game so they'll just send two players home (which just means they can't...

Do we expect a full dress rehearsal for England (likely)? I reckon we will from 6-15, the tight 5 is pretty set so we might leave a few of those blokes out of the danger zone for this match. positions under query IMO: 6 - Dempsey or LSL (Lukhan Salakaia-Loto) - Dempsey 9 - Genia or White - Genia 10 - Lilo, Foley...

3. Dempsey 2. Petaia 1. Beale

No. Once they’re out there the players make the calls. You can blame the coach for the structure or lack of, but not the game play.

Upon further reading you’ll realise I wasn’t suggesting that

I think you know that was in jest. And it wasn’t you I was having a go at.

Well at least England will still be the only host nation to ever be knocked out in the pool stages. Haha EDIT: just realised I may have jumped the gun there a bit. The Japan v Scotland game is going to be epic!

Sometimes our patriotism comes into it but I think mostly people just want to watch a game with the same numbers of players on the pitch. And the filthy fuckers watching from the stands.

Correct

Agreed, on all counts

You’re watching the half time gap filler. Kearns makes a good point in that he hasn’t seen naisarani pass the ball yet. I like that back row.

The top line of the fucking framework needs to read: DID IT LOOK DELIBERATE Yes: worst case red No: worst case yellow Then work through the rest of the framework and introduce all the mitigating factors etc

where is BR tonight?
