Been on live pause for the second half.
I’ll repeat what Gawk said - what. A. Game.
Japan’s handling skills are absolutely incredible.

You can just feel all the positivity and passion from the fans coming right through your tv! Watching it again now on itv+1 and will probably catch the highlights and every other podcast or radio show I can lay my hands on later. Great stuff.

The next Blood and mud episode especially will be a great one
Is that from a PlayStation 2 game?
Actually… That’s quite cool.
I’m still buzzing from that game!
As an aside, this is the only rugby game worth playing (mainly because it’s the only one I’ve played… but still. An amazing 2 player game)

There’s an obvious bias - but I think the sa japan game is actually the most predictable out of all of those.
Can’t say I enjoy being on the unpopular side though 
Yeah I know. South Africa are going to have to put the hammer down to get through Japan.
I really hope Japan find yet another gear and really manage to take it to SA.

I honestly think they can… and I stress can... pull out the shock of shocks here.
Forget they are tier 2 or whatever, just watch the rugby they have been playing. They can whip it through their hands at will and can score tries quickly.
The question is can their defence keep out people who eat 2 steak dinners for breakfast lunch and dinner. The first 20 against the all blacks show south Africa are not fucking about in this world cup.
It’s like Vega versus Zangief in Street Fighter.
Im giddy over all of the QF’s. I can’t wait.
Kotaro Matsushima at 20/1 first try scorer? I’ll have a bit of that thank you.

I just hope that SA won’t be undone by those Japanese legends Lappies Labuschagne and Wimpie Van Der Walt. Those names are even too afrikaans for the springboks.
I need to double check this fact but I believe every player in rugby and cricket was originally born in South Africa. I’m pretty sure that’s 100% true.

Here we go. It’s like Christmas morning two days in a row.
Deciding who I want to win in this one is proving impossible. I mean… Its a matter of principle that I can never support England under any circumstances but then you look over at kurtley beale and hooper and cheika and…
I hope to fuck none of these knockouts have a dodgy red card. There’s been an unusual amount so far…
Amped. I’m 100% neutral but I like both teams. Will be stoked for whoever makes it through but this better be a high scoring game and it better be tetchy as fuck.
Fucking come on!
