StreetCowboy Posted September 22, 2015 Share Posted September 22, 2015 People go on about the Blossoms having a four day turn-around, but Scotland face USA at the weekend. I think all the lower-seeded teams have at least one short turn-around. At least we have a week between Samoa and South Africa. I had a quick look, and as far as I could tell all the teams in that group have a four-day turnaround except Samoa, who have at least six days between all their games. I expect the other groups are the same SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SantiSuk Posted September 23, 2015 Share Posted September 23, 2015 Wow what a sensational tackle to close the first half by Goramaru of Japan. Probably one of the best recorded tackles of all time. Scottish wing man seems a dead cert for a run in but is met by a flying exocet from 30 yards away. Look out for it on the news or utube. Just inspiring rugby I suspect the Japs will run out of steam before the end, but they are an eye-opener. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatboy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 france will have to play better than what i have seen so far.they gave away penalty after penalty and were lucky to go in at half time in front againt romania. they did however score 3tries towards the end but far from convincing. so a few more days and we should have some sort of an idea who goner and who's not. for me i would have fancied wales but not with the squad thats left. so the doors half open for england.with the scots trying to squeeze through.

StreetCowboy Posted September 24, 2015 Share Posted September 24, 2015 (edited) Shortly before the tournament I bumped into one of my English colleagues in the pub - luckily I never spilt his drink. He'd written off the likelihood of Scotland getting through, but had bought tickets for both Group A - B quarter-finals "I'd rather see England against South Africa than Scotland" He's probably right. The Scotland - Japan game was hugely entertaining, and both teams played well. Edited September 24, 2015 by StreetCowboy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StreetCowboy Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 Samoa - South Africa tonight ought to be a good game. It's a bit late for me, and there's no way I'll stay up for the England - Wales game; I'll try and watch that in the morning before I go out for my bike ride - I just hope that the haze clears up before then SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerfish Posted September 26, 2015 Author Share Posted September 26, 2015 the air of anticipation surrounding this game is quite something back here in the U.K. they reckon near on 20,000 - 25,000 Welsh will be travelling up the M4 meatboy. drove past London Welsh's ground in Richmond this morning and they had about 4 marques set up in the grounds. they were out and about the towns nice and early, but nothing beats Cardiff on an international day morning, especially as the pubs are jam packed by 10 a.m. can't wait for this one !

daveAustin Posted September 26, 2015 Share Posted September 26, 2015 ^^ The game was 'lost' by poor discipline, but agreed the taffs had more passion, England wasted it. The pair of them would be raped by the blacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The pair of them would be raped by the blacks. the passion is called THE WELSH FIRE valley boys being brought up on,FAGGOTS & PEAS,PORK DRIPPING,CHIPS & GRAVY, BRAINS BEER AND GOOD OLD FASHION SCRUMPY. thats what gives the fire in their bellies,putting their bodies on the line with the WILL TO WIN. what side we have left remains to be seen as there was more than enough injuries,at least its fiji next a win should be enough if OZ beats ENGLAND. being a passionate taff there was mixed emortions at the end,there was tears but not for the lads,they were for my beloved boy who is not well again. for those that dont read the pet forum my boy is my SAM THE HUSKY.

StreetCowboy Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Looking forward to tonight, 2.30 pm BST, Scotland - USA from Elland Road, Leeds. When we played them in the last World Cup, in Salford in 2013, we came away four try winners - let's hope for a similar result in the fifteen man code SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetCowboy Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Ho Ho Ho! I'm chortling with glee and rubbing my hands to boot. A great game against USA - not a patch on last night, but still drama a-plenty, and Scotland go into their final games top of the group. One win out of two against S. Africa and Samoa should see us through, and I'm not sure there's much benefit finishing top, given what's happening in Pool A. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think finishing top for Scotland would be preferable as that would more likely be against Wales in the quarters rather than the Wallabies if Scotland came runner up in the pool, but it is safer to come runner up and then go on the other side of the knock outs as it would mean they wouldnt meet NZ till the final Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meatboy Posted October 2, 2015 Share Posted October 2, 2015 being a proud welshman i wonder how far wales can go if OZ beats ENGLAND. the game against fiji once again has taken a lot out of the team,bloodied,battered,how much more can they take. there is still the pride in every welshman who puts on that red shirt and put their bodies on the line,but thats not enough. we have already lost key players,so never mind how much further you go win or lose you have made us proud.
