Live Chat for Tonga vs All Blecks

[GC]

Terrible mis-match to kick off a World Cup. Not a good advertisement for the game at all. Don't know what the organisers were thinking.

 

[Swat]

True, how good would have been France NZ for the opener!

 

[Scarfman]

Ali Williams or Cowan is gunna get punched before the game is out

 

[PaarlBok]

All Blacks going for the bonus point try?

 

[Scarfman]

They already have it. Tries are 4-0.

Great stuff Tonga, thats better defence!

I tell you what regardless of the score, as a player if I could pick an attribute from each Rugby country that I would like to have then from the Tongans I'd pick their physicality (along with Samoa) I can feel some of those hits from here.

 

[Scarfman]

SBW has played himself out a place.

Edit: but he's a spunk!!

 

[Nusadan]

What a knob SBW is not passing to the man with the open space in front of that man...great scrambling defence to hold him away from the tryline tho,,,

 

[Nusadan]

SBW has played himself out a place.

Yeah, with his jersey looking like that now...

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Did his foot touch the line?

Close on & its no try.

 

[minorbird]

So NZ haven't scored in the 2nd half am I right? Have not impressed me at all.

 

[Scarfman]

Foot in touch? Ridiculous.

 

[PaarlBok]

They already have it. Tries are 4-0.

Only 2 Doc?

 

[Nusadan]

Same here, have him in my fantasy team as my captain. Bah.

 

[minorbird]

Five tries from individual talent, but ABs look pretty disorganised.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Looking at it in real time I thought it was foot in touch but on the slow mo the ball got there 1st.

Rugby data website I've had a squiz at says the last two results of Tonga v NZ have been, 24 Oct 2003 New Zealand winning 91 - 7, & 16 Jun 2000 New Zealand winning 102 - 0. Looking at this game now Tonga has actually done ok given their previous scores, though this isnt over yet & could still get ugly.

 

[Scarfman]

Cartel is retarded for not giving Carter some time off. If he gets injured they have no Plan B.

 

[AngrySeahorse]

Come on Tonga!

 

[minorbird]

God I'd love to see a pushover / penalty try here.

 

[Nusadan]

Brave decision to scrum again by Tonga after getting a penalty
