Wales lost the SF to punish the fickle Poms who got on the Welsh Bandwagon
Do you know what?
A Welsh Flag over #10 Downing Street.
All the Soap Dodgers at work claiming Welsh Heritage, or "I've always supported Wales cause I grew up in Hereford (or wherever)" etc, or "We've got to go for our neighbour, and they are playing awesome rugby, and should win".
I am sure that this has probably been the same for all Soap Dodgers worldwide.
All the Support from the Soap Dodgers probably put the gnome into overdrive, and he took action. He had no choice.
Sometimes with a Cancer, (Bandwagon, fickle, know-it-all smartypants Support from the Soap Dodgers is a cancer) you need to cut out healthy tissue to prevent the cancer spreading. The Welsh loss today was part of that cancer treatment. The Soap Dodgers need to know their place. They may have invented the game, but that doesn't mean that they have any god given rights of superiority.
Unfortunately the Rugby Gods had to take action against the Soap Dodgers and fair weather Soap Dodger supporters that the IRB were not prepared to do during the RWC. Punishment meant their mob were on the first available plane out of Auckland Airport, and their alternate bandwagon team has also been chosen to play for the Bronze medal.
