RWC: JAP v SAM (Milton Keynes): POOL B

[Quick Hands]

This looks like it'll be a massacre if Samoa lose heart

You'd have to think that Japan will score two more tries for the BP

The heart's there, but no brains or structure.

Japan are so patient and well drilled. Quality team to watch. Take a bow Eddie Jones.

Mystery of the orangutan continues

Samoa have been poor all tournament, but that was the worst half of rugby that I have ever seen from a Samoan team. They used to be the most disciplined and the most structured of all the island teams, they need a shake up after this RWC. Fiji and Tonga have both gone ahead while Samoa have gone backwards - really sad to see.

So poor at breakdown and tackling

The orangutan again. English shirts and is that a nz voice over? Baffling

They're a unique team too, no one else really plays like them. Their body height going into contact and cleaning out in support is sensational. Joy to watch and great for the game.

It's a pity they had that 4 day turnaround before the Scotland game. That 2nd half blowout could come back to cost them. They could still miss out on the quarters even if they win this with a bonus point and then beat the US with a bonus point. And if they win both games without bonus points they could even finish behind a team with only 2 wins (potentially either South Africa or Scotland).

That's a point from Fitzpatrick. Samoa look knackered after sa

 

[Cardiffblue]

Have to say Joubert is doing well. Never said that before

My criticism of SA last week on point.

No home team

 

[Cardiffblue]

He said yellow for next offside

 

[Cardiffblue]

Must've forgotten

 

[AngrySeahorse]

And Samoa come alive at last.

 

[Cardiffblue]

Backs are still offside

 

[Cardiffblue]

Tackled like 1/2p

 

[Cardiffblue]

It's a shame Japanese had only 4 days before they played scotland

 

[Quick Hands]

Japan 26-0. Samoa reduced to spoiling at the tackle and off side in the backs
