Both of the Fijians got suspended for those tackles - good.

Mate it must suck being in the plate on your home tournament.

I'm tipping USA to make their first ever final.

^^^^^ Touché, qwerty!

I remember the year Samoa put us out in the QF, half our group walked down to Courtenay Place & bar-crawled our way back yo the stadium in time to catch the bus back to Levin. Sometimes you've just gotta find the silver lining. :)

Plate Semi Final: AUS vs KEN now on.

3:00 min Jeloudev Try after some scrappy play from both teams. Converted. AUS 7 - KEN
7:00 min Wangela (Ken) try. Conversion from sideline no good. AUS 7 - KEN 5

Oranges.

0:30 min Stannard Try and Conversion. AUS 14 - KEN 5
5:15 min Myers Try, Stannard Conversion. AUS 21 - KEN 5

Hooter goes for time. Sir packs the scrum anyway. Holland kicks it out.

AUS to meet FIJ in the Plate Final.

^^^^^^ 0-0 with under a minute left in the 1st half then boom! boom! Fiji up 12-0 with about 5 min left. Ouch, 17-0 with kick to come & 3 min left.

EDIT: if my maths is right* you guys need NZ to beat the Poms in the Cup Final to hang onto the 4th automatic qualifying spot for Rio. I can hear @qwerty now "Black! Black! Black!" :)

* Clarkie just said the same thing so if I'm wrong so's he.

Collier scores in the 1st min, Kaka in the 4th but misses both kicks so 10-0.

How fuckin' good is young Ioane? And how fuckin' good is he GONNA be? Needs to work on his D but otherwise I think we've found our new Tim Mikkelson......

Webber cops a questionable YC, Poms score, 10-7. Webber back on.

Webber chips, Ioane gathers a lucky bounce, 15-7 & hooter has gone for oranges.

England pick off a crap lineout throw but Curry steals it back & scores, kick misses but 20-7 & 7 to go.

Ioane brushes off a tackler & scores, kick is good 27-7.

Nice break by the Poms but it all goes horribly wrong, scrum NZ. Kaka off, 3:30 to go.

2 consolation tries but too little too late, 27-21 & Aus cling on to 4th in the series, have to check whether NZ now 2nd or still 3rd (SA still top).

EDIT: pretty sure it's now 1. SA, 2. NZ, 3. Fiji, 4. Aus, 5. Eng then a fair way back to 6th.
