Maybe. Sometimes going down to 14 gets team to perform better.

Very true!
Good on the Boks though. And what a match!
Good match, surprisingly ill-disciplined for these 2 teams - 3 yellows and a red is rare. Luckily match wasn’t ruined by the cards.
And with the RWC now over, the merch will be cheaper and I can watch England v Tonga in the Rugby League next weekend

I’m just glad I’m not at work tomorrow, so my boss has a full day to deal with his team losing 
Anyone else been looking at tour packages for the British & Irish Lions?
I know they’re always expensive anyhow, but a ticket just to jump the queue and be able to order a tour package before anyone else is £300 per person…
That’s just indefensible
That’s ridiculous.
Well, that was the worst kept secret in history.
Being a fan of both the Lions and the Ba-Bas, this can only be a positive

Really interesting look into the world of refereeing too (Whistle Blowers starts today, I think, for those who have a rugby TV subscription).
Then it’s Sixmas tomorrow. My money’s on France to pull off the opening win, given they’re playing in Paris.
Sat in my parents’ house, with my dad who’s an “Anyone But England” type…
Watching Wales v Scotland, I’m feeling much better about England’s earlier performance.
I’m also thinking we’re not winning the Calcutta Cup this time…

Air cadets out in force at Scotland vs France 
Looking smart too. And a good match so far, I hope it stays in the balance.
That was a try. All day long. No way should that have been rejected as ball being held up.
Absolute joke.
Vive La France. Suck it up Jocks. The day of glory has arrived 
That was so unfortunate. Personally, I think it was a try, but agree that there’s no angle that shows the ball was in-goal when it hit the ground.
