Finally getting a try in the 80th minute. Fucking twats 
Choirs singing the national anthems are pretty cool tbf.
Worked really well for Flower of Scotland but a few have been really bad.

Ah, first I’ve seen it tbh
Good to see VAR in this are just as clueless.
How that South African player wasn’t sent off for the head to head early in the first half
Fiji giving us quite the game right now, always expected to be fair the pacifoc teams are becoming so much better with every year we face them.
Its so refreshing to see “VAR” that works, that is streamlined and so quick. So used to this shite PL system, the rugby system is far superior.
Gutting ending for the Fijians there. Missed a good bit of the game but they are just so good and exciting to watch. So unlucky but those two bonus points could be very useful.
Physical and strong as fuck too, that last 10 minutes had me on the edge of my seat.
They deserved more to be fair but I’m glad they didn’t

Slow mo of both tackles
Curry
- Player is in the air and just lands as an on-rushing curry higher than the player hits head on head and gashes
- Player is coming down, so cannot change direction, Curry is moving forwards, so is liable for the contact.
- both players go down and require stitches, so head impact is significant (and responsibility for that is on Curry).
Kriel
- The head contact is not much more than a touch or graze of heads, not a clash, the impact is minimal
- Kriel is coming from below Dempsey. Kriel is static and not moving forward. Dempsey shifts angle into Kriel to avoid Kolisi
- Kriel doesn’t make a tackle as such, he uses his hands to cushion impact/push him away, and then biggest impact is chest on chest. Head impact is minimal, neither player even breaks stride afterwards
- Video looks more like Kriel trying to avoid collision as opposed to causing it
Curry is appealing but I don’t expect the review board to over-rule
Edit: I see the video has now been taken down

Japan playing some good stuff despite a number of handling errors.
Just as I post, England get it over the line.
Great to see Marler still playing the game at International level. Used to see him around my club, and played alongside his dad for a couple of seasons.
