Fantastic stuff!

A 69 year wait to beat Australia.

Then beat them in the World Cup.

That'll do, Fiji.

 

[veuve]

Well played

Thanks for the heads up. It's always entertaining watching Australia struggle.

They lost by 122 runs to South Africa at Johannesburg in the cricket to lose the ODI series 3-2 as well. Bad day for Australian sport. Oh dear, how sad, never mind.

 

[Kinky Gerbil]

They need to beat wales next week to stand a chance to go through ?

I’m in tears………………..of laughter

 

[Sheebo]

Not being a pooper but I have a feeling that missed kick at end may come back to haunt them / help the convicts.

 

[Mackenzie]

Johnny Wilkinson does speak some bollocks doesn’t he.

 

[Icy Gull]

Brilliant from Fiji but they were playing a dinosaur Eddie Jones team so no surprise to me

Japan will always be a second favourite team having seen off the Springboks at the Amex.

Think we have too much firepower but who knows?

 

[Javeaseagull]

Japan in red hoops, same as my old school Seaford Secondary Modern. That’s sorted

 

[Javeaseagull]

You just know they will clean up after them

 

[ManOfSussex]

You just know they will clean up after them

Japanese rugby fans in Nice or kids from Seaford Secondary Modern?

 

[Javeaseagull]

This ain’t over

 

[Javeaseagull]

If England get a try will there be a bank holiday?

[The Fits]

Bit mixed isn't it?
Relieved to get a try but much like last week we seem to be making very hard work of it. We don't instinctively want to get the ball out and let the backs run it seems.

 

[Javeaseagull]

This is like de Zerbi ball. Anyone can win this

 

[The Fits]

Should score here.
More handling errors in this World Cup than I have ever remembered.
Edit. We knock on.

 

[Weststander]

The most ‘kick for territory’ game of rugby I can recall. Japan as guilty as England.
